Manawa is the first website for booking outdoor activities in France and in Europe. Our mission is to allow as many people as possible to discover outdoor and adventurous activities to experience unforgettable moments. In just a few years, with a network of over 2,500 outdoor professionals and more than 6,000 activities worldwide, Manawa has become the leading website for booking a scuba diving experience in Greece, a canyoning trip in the Ardèche, a dog sledding trip in Quebec or a surfing session in Biarritz. In May 2022, Manawa was acquired by Alentour, the French platform that facilitates the distribution and booking of leisure activities, launched by the Banque des Territoires (Groupe Caisse des Dépôts), as part of the Tourism Recovery Plan.
