The Lot is a river that will take you navigating through a fascinating valley. Your cruise will be ponctuated by manual locks without lock keeper, that you will have to operate yourself. That is why this cruise if recommended for people who already have experience. You can start your cruise from Luzech, Douelle or Cahors. Before boarding, you will receive a 1h training to get familiar with the navigation and the boat.
The locks are manual but they are easy to operate.
If the Lot is in spate, we may have to transfer your cruise to another departure base. We do not recommend the Lot for a first boating holiday.
It is important you only moor in the designated places.
