    Very friendly staff and well organised. The canoes are modern and an equipment like life vest very clean. Very nice to see another view of the area. It’s less touristic than for example the Dordogne river but the nature is beautiful. It’s difficult to compare both except for the fact that you are canoeing a river. If you want to do a canoe journey on the Vezere I would definitely choose this one. Plenty of parking places and camping cars area within 50 meters.

    What a lovely experience.. My Dad and I had a single kayak each and did the 17km trip from Montignac to the Roc St Christophe. Stunning scenery all the way passing two very impressive Chateaus and of course finishing at the stunning Roc! There were plenty of places to stop for a rest along the way to admire the peace and tranquility of the river passing by. We saw loads of kingfishers and local wildlife. This would be a great outing for any twitcher! We stopped near the end of the route at a river side cafe for drinks. It's very easy to find a place to pitch up for a while safely. I recommend taking water on a warm day. Water tight containers are provided for you to take with you on your voyage The providers were very welcoming and efficient. Thank you to all for such a lovely afternoon :)

    Fantastic. Ive been on a couple canoe trips nearby, none as nice, friendly and helpful as Canoe Family. I cannot recommend them any higher than FANTASTIC.
