Canyoning Experience at Ribeira Grande

4.Canyoning Experience at Ribeira Grande

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 965 reviews · 2 hours 30 minutes (approx.) · from $90.70

Canyoning in Ribeira Grande, Azores with disinfected gear, rappels, and optional jumps, small-group safety, and a scenic river run.

“This might be the best tour in the Azores. We did 4 (through Viator) during our 1.5 weeks in the Azores and while they were all amazing in their own ways, this one stood out far above the rest. Super fun guides make sure you stay safe but have an exhilarating adventure. No experience needed, but it's still a ton of fun for people who do a lot of this type of thing (we like to hike/ski/rock climb). The tour company provides everything you need, although we brought a GoPro to capture some of the fun. Would recommend to anyone!”
