“The tour was absolutely incredible! It is not so boring with a huge amount of walks, but you visit banch spots per this trip. Very cool tour agenda, including kayaking and swimming. But the true gem of the tour it is the waterfall, since it is a perfect way to refresh. Nuno is a perfect guide, he was take the conversation with all tour members, make a warmups, telling us interesting stories and a bit of history. Very easy and friendly guide, totally recommend it.”

“Inês was an amazing guide, and we had such a fun and relaxing day! She was super informative, made sure everyone was safe and by the end of the day we were all singing along together in the car ride home haha! Would really recommend:)”

“Kom nd and welcoming staff, great views and great guidance. A very good place to go canoeing especially for beginners.”

“Wij hebben totaal geen opmerkingen. Alles is perfect en vlot verlopen. Heel vriendelijk onthaal, mooie verzorgde omgeving.”

“Toller Ausflug, hat Spaß gemacht. Sehr netter/ engagierter Guide! Wechselklamotten sind wichtig, wir sind richtig im Wasser gelandet :-)”

“Overall the kayaking experience was just great. They allowed us to experience it at our own pace as well as gave us the freedom to choose where and when we wanted to stop along the Douro River. Be prepared that the kayaking could be challenging at times but if you want time experience the Douro River from another perspective and like active leisure activities, it is well worth the effort and 3 hours. We would highly recommend it. The staff were great as well (supportive and easy going).”

“We had so much fun! 4 hours flew past. Alvaro was a great guide - helpful, informative and very kind. We came at the end of the season so the water was slightly lower than it should’ve been, meaning the rapids weren’t too extreme and we did end up getting stuck on the rocks - remember to wiggle and shake to free the canoe! The company provide you with full gear, a bottle of water and a small snack along the way. Being able to swim helps, but even if you can’t, the life jackets provide full support. We stopped at 2 spots where we swam - one of which…”

“I had a great time kayaking in Porto Palermo. The guides were amazing. Very friendly and had a lot of knowledge about the area. The sights were beautiful!”

“Easy paddling in beautiful location with good friends and a fun guide. Would definitely recommend doing.”

“We hebben een heel leuke tocht over de Douro gehad! Een van de teamleden vaarde met ons mee voor onze veiligheid en nam veel foto’s en filmpjes. Op het moment dat wij gingen varen waren er best wat golven waardoor we een paar keer onze balans verloren en in het water vielen. Houd hier dus rekening mee door een droog setje kleding mee te nemen! Het teamlid heeft ons heel goed hierbij geholpen en we hebben ons geen moment onveilig gevoeld (je hebt ook een reddingsvest aan). De Douro is ‘s ochtends rustiger, wij waren ‘s middags. Kortom een avontuurlijke, onvergetelijke ervaring!”

“Never been before but Nuno was great and had us standing within 5 minutes… loved the beach and desert island… now know the correct way to paddle and stand etc. faultless”

“I loved the experience with Villa's Adventure. André was our guide and he was amazing. Funny, very helpful and made us have a great time.”

“What a wonderful day we have had with Bruno. A local who really knows the in and outs of the area. With our luck we were the only ones on this trip so it turned into a private tour. From kayaking to the views of geres national park to a lovely local lunch and a hike with a beautiful waterfall and lagoon. This was above and beyond our expectations. Thank you for the unforgetable trip Bruno.”

“This was our 2nd time. We had a wonderful afternoon with Filipe on the water. Beautiful river, SUP was great fun and the place is lovely - Highly Recommend.”

“We were collected at the meeting point at the scheduled time by a „Taxi“. We were only two people that went and booked the trip via GetYourGuide. The driver was really nice, giving us a good ride to the Meeting Point for the Rafting in a climatized car. We had to drive about 1,5 hours. At the meeting point there were other groups of people that booked the experience. After we got our safety equipment, we had to do another ride (about 20 mins) further up the mountain, from where we started the rafting. On our way we had several opportunities to swim in the river. Only thing was that…”
