Paddle Paiva River rapids by canoe-raft, swim, jump from rocks, and finish with Arouca food on this lively four-hour adventure.

“We had an amazing time Rafting/ Tubing. The scenery was beautiful and the overall experience was great. Our guide Pedro from JUST COME was super fun and we felt extremely safe with him. Also as an extra bonus he took a lot of fun pictures of the trip! Totally recommend this activity! We will be back for sure - maybe when there is more water in the river. But evens the water levels were lower - it was still a great adventure for us. So yes absolutely 5 stars. We also booked the lunch - it was a fantastic way to extend the nice trip. Cute restaurant and good food.…”
