Highly enjoyed our time in the Peneda Geres park this summer. And did so thanks to the unique recommendations by Luis.
He really took the time to sit down with us to share his undeniable experience in exploring the area. Whether on activities, where to park our Campervan or where to grab food. For us, all bulls-eye experiences!
If we had not met Luis, or stay in the area wouldn't have been half as nice.
Definately recommend getting in touch if you need an all-round helpful guide to make the most of your stay.

Unknowingly did my girlfriend and myself register for the SUP tour while staying at the Lima Escape campsite. Little did we know we would be surprised by a friendly, energetic SUP tour guide and teacher. Luis was committed in teaching us all the skills needed to become true SUP lovers! He really took the time and effort in guiding us to secret and scenic spots that we otherwise never would have found/visited. Highly recommended when in the area!

Excellent day on the river thanks to Luis!! AktivaNatura was recommended to us by our Airbnb host in Lindoso and we are sooooo happy that we contacted Luis. Luis shared so many local treasures with us as well as kayaking tips for the day.
In the remaining days we had in the area we enjoyed many of his local tips!
I would highly recommend contacting Luis if planning to come to this beautiful area:)

We had a great day out with a few kayaks discovering the lake and rivers. Owner Luis is very chill and relaxed and pointed out clear how to canoe and where to go. Also after the very nice trip he’s full of tips on where to go and what to do around Lima Escape. We also lent one of the canoes at night to see stars and peddle around. Really great adventures for kids and ourselves.

What an amazing experience!
My husband and I booked SUP with Luis having never been on a board before. We were both a little nervous at first but we need not have worried as we were in expert hands! The boards were so sturdy and Luis was so patient. His incredibly calming nature made learning much easier and enjoyable. After the initial instruction we paddled to a most beautiful area were it was possible to swim &/or dive into crystal clear water. The time flew by but thankfully all of the key moments were captured by Luis on his incredible camera. We were really taken aback by the quality of the shots. These and the entire SUP experience exceeded our expectations. So, I would definitely do it again and can highly recommend this company and Luis to you (& our family & friends) too! Thank you Luis for an unforgettable experience and the photos - that we adore 😊

We were looking to explore nature in the national park in a more active way and had never tried stand up paddling. It was great! Our teenage kids loved it as well. Luis teaches you and follows the group closely. We also got to jump off a bridge as an extra highlight. The views are great.
Luis takes some really good pictures of your trip which he shares with you afterwards. He also gave us some advice on other things to see and explore in the national park.
I definitely recommend this.

How can I put words to our experience?
Me and my boyfriend had never tried stand up paddle and we are now hooked!
Luís is a great teacher and goes out of his way to give his customers the best experience possible.
The water, the environment and the surfing was just stunning in addition to the surprising amazing quality photoshoot.
I highly recommend Luís and I will definitely be coming out for more activities with him again.

Luís was the perfect mentor for our first stand up paddle experience. The rivers are calm and great for a few dives during the class. Just perfect!

We cannot fault our experience with Luis. We did stand up paddle boarding on a pretty windy day and we were quite nervous but he seamlessly taught us techniques and explained how to use the wind for our benefit. More than a guide, fab knowledge of the area and nature. Lots of fun and the most beautiful scenery - 100% recommend! Hopefully see you In Brazil Luis!

We spent the all morning paddling in a beautiful landscape here the Peneda-geres park.
We standed all the time with fantastic Lius, our very kind and friendly guide.
It was an AMAZING experience, even for a friend of mine who was the first time on a paddle.
It's something that everyone can do and once in a lifetime you should try.
Thanks again to Luis, it would not be the same without you!!!
