“Friendly, smiling staff. Booked the day before, payment by ancv cheques, no worries, immediately directed to the waiting area of the bus. We didn’t immediately realize that we had to follow them, so the boss came back to get us.
Lovely 4-hour walk from Carsac to Beyac, with a lunch break.
The river is very easy to descend and the views are magnificent, with 5 castles and bridges along the way.”
