“A first for us canoeing on the Dordogne with my partner, my daughter and our little dog.
The staff are very pleasant and helpful, and the view from the snack bar is superb.
The Carsac Vitrac course is magnificent and accessible to beginners. The price is still very reasonable, given the landscapes we’ve crossed and the pleasure we’ve experienced.
A must for everyone and we’ll be happy to come back.”
