    • Descend the Nive, a pretty river in the Basque Country, aboard our boats for 3 to 8 people. Our qualified instructors will make you experience exhilarating sensations in a good mood during 1h30 of descent.


      Category II with passages in class III, the Nive is one of the most beautiful nautical and rafting courses in the Basque Country.

      Want to spice up the descent? Embark on our mini-raft (4 people) or cano-raft (2 people): smaller and more manageable than the raft, these boats allow you to discover navigation in a fun and sporty way.

      Accessible from 7 years old provided you know how to swim.


      Public prices:

      Adult 35€/person

      Teens 12-17 years old 30€/pers

      Children 7-11 years old 23€/pers

    The MOST fun afternoon - 6 family members ranging from 51-15 in ages- The Arteka team were so accommodating and helpful, not to mention loads of fun! Matisse was our river guide and we did cano-raft which was a high-paced, adrenaline- filled activity (and we are all adrenaline addicts!)It also felt very safe and the equipment ( canoes, wetsuits, boots, helmets etc) were new, clean and of high standard. Even the showers were hot afterwards! The staff were so helpful and accommodating too. Can thoroughly recommend.

    It was our first time doing the canoraft (mini raft like a kayak for two people). This was very hard to maneuver and we kept spinning. Instead of helping, the instructor kept whistling at us as if we were dogs and treating us with disrespect. He even told me to stop speaking and listen to him like he was speaking to a baby. He continuously looked at his watch, saying that he was late and that we were failing. Thankfully, some very kind people helped us out but they found it difficult as well. I felt like I was a burden when we paid for this activity and I did not enjoy it.

    Professional staff. Even tough we were late (schedule to 16h), they waited for us around 60 minutes to start the rafting session. I found the reservation process quite good. The material was in good condition. We were expecting a longer session. We think that price is not the best deal for one hour of rafting. Although the instructor was professional, it seemed a bit like in the army. Always keeping a constant pace and stressing to move forward.

    I went here with my family. The course was quiet long and, for my sister and I, quiet difficult. We are not very tall (less than 170cm) and we believed some spots on the rocks were difficult to go...
