Why the Basque Country for your bachelor/bachelorette party?
The Basque Country offers a perfect combination for a group event: spectacular nature, rich culture, exceptional gastronomy, and multiple exciting activities. Whether you seek adrenaline, relaxation, or a balance of both, the Basque Country has everything.
Bidarray, heart of white water activities in the region, is particularly ideal for bachelor/bachelorette parties. The Nive offers fun and team-building activities, perfect for creating lasting bonds and memories within the group.
Rafting: The Ultimate team-building activity
Rafting is the ideal activity for a bachelor or bachelorette party. Why? Because it combines several key elements: action, laughter, teamwork, and safety.
A rafting descent on the Nive creates a sense of shared adventure. The group must work together to navigate the rapids, strengthening bonds and creating memorable hilarious moments. All participants feel involved, from the most courageous to the most cautious.

Combining rafting with other activities
For a multi-day bachelorette/bachelor party, combine rafting with other exciting activities:
Morning: Rafting or Inflatable Canoe to start the day with adrenaline.
Afternoon: Visit Bidarray village or surrounding Basque villages. Explore traditional Basque architecture, charming restaurants, and local craft shops.
Evening: Basque gastronomic feast. The Basque Country is world-renowned for its cuisine. Savor Bayonne ham, piperade, local trout, and regional wines.
Complementary activities: Canyoning, horseback riding, spa, wine cellar visits, mountain excursions, or simply relaxing at Biarritz or Saint-Jean-de-Luz beaches.
Feasibility with different experience levels
The Nive at Bidarray is suited for mixed groups in terms of experience level. Whether there are experienced athletes or less sporty people, everyone has a place. Mini raft for the less daring, classic rafting for most, and hydrospeed for the most adventurous.
No participant is left behind. The Ur Bizia team ensures everyone experiences something positive suited to their abilities.
Logistics and organization
We handle all details: equipment, safety, timing, and coordination. You just need to arrive and enjoy. Our guides are experienced in organizing group events and know how to create a joyful and motivating atmosphere.
We can even coordinate with other regional providers to offer you an all-in-one package including accommodation, meals, and activities.
Captures and memories
We offer professional photos and videos of your descent. These images immortalize action moments and authentic expressions of your participants. It's a tangible memory of this exceptional day.
You can also bring your own waterproof cameras (action cam, GoPro), though we recommend keeping them stowed during the descent to avoid distraction and stay safe.
Budget and pricing
Ur Bizia's rates for groups are competitive and transparent. Group discounts are available depending on your event size. Contact us for an exact quote based on your number of participants, chosen activities, and desired dates.
Additional tips
Plan your bachelor/bachelorette party at least 2-3 months in advance, especially if coming during high season (summer). Prefer intermediate seasons (spring or fall) if seeking fewer crowds and better conditions.
Communicate well with Ur Bizia about your event's spirit (rather relaxed, rather action, mixed) so we best adapt activities. And above all, come with the intention to have fun and create unforgettable memories in the heart of the Basque Country!
