Azur Rafting — Canyoning & Kayak Rivières

Azur Rafting, located at 54 avenue du Ray in Nice, offers rafting, canyoning and kayak trips in the Alpine gorges of the region, including the Var, Vésubie, Loup and Verdon.

Visitor reviews

Highlights: Azur Rafting is cited as one of the finest discoveries for visitors unfamiliar with Nice's nearby Alpine gorges. Vésubie and Loup canyons are described as spectacular. Guides are unanimously appreciated for professionalism and good cheer. The experience is very different from beach water sports.

Areas for improvement: Activities require a minimum fitness level. Canyon outings can be cancelled in heavy upstream rain. Requires transport to sites.

Overall impression: Azur Rafting is Nice's most original and most differentiating nautical experience, ideal for visitors wanting to combine sea and mountain within 40 minutes of the Promenade.
