Our Opinion

Starting from Casseneuil, a holiday on a boat without a license on the lower Lot provides the assurance of a holiday that pleases everyone. It offers a mix of history, good cuisine, and many sports and cultural activities.

However, it is important to note that due to the risk of floods in spring and autumn, navigation on the Lot is not guaranteed. The Lot is primarily a natural watercourse. In the unfortunate event of a departure being made impossible due to floods, we may have to offer an alternate itinerary, such as one of our other destinations in France.
