Why is it advisable to rent a boat without a licence from a professional?
Over the last few years, private rental has developed considerably. Nowadays, you can rent a car, gardening equipment, DIY equipment or accommodation to a stranger (or someone close to you for that matter). Nevertheless, this implies that you have to be careful, especially with regard to insurance and liability. And if it is also possible to hire a boat, to go on a river cruise, it is preferable to contact a professional. Indeed, this type of trip obeys certain rules. Boats must be less than 15 metres long, for example. For barges without a licence, training is essential before departure. Similarly, with a company specialising in rentals, you will benefit from assistance and support in the preparation of your stay. In short, it's more reassuring and safer.
