Firenze Rafting

Firenze Rafting is a company founded in 2010 in Florence, offering rafting, kayaking, canoeing and canyoning activities in the Tuscany region. As the first rafting company to be established in Florence, it is run by a local team of guides who are used to working together. The trips require no prior experience and take place on the River Arno in central Florence for 2-hour excursions, on the River Sieve in the Mugello for descents lasting up to 3.5 hours, as well as on the Lima and Serchio rivers in Bagni di Lucca and Lucca for sessions lasting between 2.5 and 3 hours. Single-seater packraft trips and canyoning tours round off the range of water sports on offer. For participants’ comfort, the centre provides life jackets, rafts and paddles in Florence, supplemented in Bagni di Lucca by wetsuits, helmets, changing rooms and outdoor showers. Safety is ensured through constant monitoring of the weather and water levels, combined with a compulsory briefing. Supervision is provided by professional guides holding certification issued by the Rescue Project organisation.
