Pedro and Ivan were the best! - This tour was our favorite and most memorable tour in Sao Miguel. Our tour guides Pedro and Ivan were the best. They were very patient, enthusiastic, and made it so much fun. This was our first time canyoneering and we felt so safe. We highly recommend this canyoneering tour and guides Pedro and Ivan.

A perfect canyoning experience in São Miguel - Looking for the perfect canyoning experience in São Miguel? This is it. We went with Fun Activities in Ribeira da Salga – a lush, hidden stream that only they guide. Imagine water park meets jungle: two big rappels (one over 20m!), four smaller ones, three jumps, and barely a dull moment in between. Our 16yo and 18yo boys, no strangers to adrenaline, were buzzing from start to finish – and a 60+ couple in the group with us was just as excited (age is just a number). The setting? A green canyon draped in ferns and streaming water, completely cut off from the island’s bustle. The guides? Teresa Henriques and Diogo Estevam – the perfect mix of fun and ultra-professional. Leading the group smoothly through the canyon without compromising safety for even a second. The operation? Safety lines in place along the route, gear in top condition, everyone kitted out in under 10 minutes. I’ve done canyoning before – never with this level of professionalism. Thrill. Beauty. Professionalism. This trip has it all. Book it – you’ll thank yourself later.

Amazing experience - We were lucky to be accompanied by the 2 most beautiful and funny tourguides: Hugo and Pedro 😉 The canyoning tour was a lot of fun, perfect for beginners but also for more experienced people, since there was a lot to do: ziplining, rapelling, jumping of a waterfall, sliding... The guides were very nice and were skilled in explaining the safety lines, so everyone could experience it in a safe way.
