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

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

      Do you want to make the descent more difficult ? Embark in our mini-raft (4 people) or cano-raft (2 people): smaller and easier to handle than rafting, these boats allow you to discover sailing in a fun and sporty way.

      Accessible from 7 years old on condition that you can swim.


      Public prices:

      Adult 35€/person

      Teens 12-17 years old 30€/pers

      Children 7-11 years old 23€/pers

    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.

    I've done the idrospeed and rafting and many more but long time ago in 2006 .It was awesome . I wish to come back in this side of the country and even France if the Lord permits even in 2020 or 2021 . Hope it's still great .

    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...
