Great Kayak trip - A really enjoyable trip down the River Lima for the inexperienced with just the right amount of excitement down several small rapids for us! The instructors were welcoming and helpful and looked after us well. The video’s sent to us later were an added bonus. A great way to spend the morning on a beautiful river.

Kayaking from the river Lima - Great activity to do in family - the kids loved the experience. The monitors Rui and Tó helped us and prepared us well before we started the descent. Before each quick, Rui indicated us the best way to approach the quick which was quite useful. Spectacular landscapes of the Lima River - to repeat 😉

A great experience! - What a fantastic experience! Was a great opportunity to experience the beautiful region from the vantage point of the water! A well choreographed route with great scenery. The guide/instructor on our trip was excellent with clear instructions and professionalism - especially with a large and sometimes challenging group. It was also well appreciated the provision for snacks at the halfway point which catered for dietary needs of my daughter. Would recommend this company and experience to anyone wanting to experience north Portugal.

A Perfect Afternoon - We were looking for a little outdoor adventure, something off the beaten trail of touristy Portuguese towns and cities. We found it - it was a perfect way to cap off our vacation. River Lima was lovely and the right level of challenge, offering long stretches of calm water interrupted by 4-5 rapids which required focus, fast paddling and bursts of adventure. The tour group leader (Paulo) was terrific -- calm, kind, patient, competent, and reassuring. He was also fun to talk to about any topic (not just kayaking). The entire region is quite beautiful, full of vineyards, so just getting to the staring point is worth a drive. I highly recommend this tour, for any number of people (there were just three of us). We were pretty fit seniors with some kayaking experience. I would recommend it for everyone except maybe unfit old-timers with no kayaking experience.

Incredible Kayak Experience on the Lima River with Centroaventura - Corporate Event - Our experience with Centroaventura was excellent! The monitors were extremely professional and made sure everyone was safe throughout the activity. The kayak descent down the Lima River was fantastic, with the river clean and the rapids presenting suitable difficulty for all skill levels. Furthermore, we had a booster midway through the activity, which was great for recharging our energy. The logistics were also very well thought out, with a transfer at the end of the descent that made our return much easier. I highly recommend Centroaventura for anyone looking for a fun, safe and well-organized activity on the Lima River!
