Half-day "privatized" canoe-kayak (trip organized just for you and your friends or family)

With a state-registered diploma in canoeing and canyoning, I ensure your safety whatever your age (from 4 years old), level and physical condition. I will guide you and teach you about the river and its environment.

You'd like to canoe on beautiful stretches of the Ardèche, with few people if possible, and you'd like to be amongst yourselves: These descents are for you.
Depending on water levels, weather and river sections, the region offers canoeing and/or kayaking in very favorable conditions.
To ensure that everyone gets the most out of the trip: we prefer two-seater boats, but single-seaters are also available on request.
If you have any questions about the feasibility of a descent, a phone call and a chat is the best way to find out.

WHAT TO WEAR
– In summer (above 25°)
Closed shoes, shorts or swimsuit, T-shirt, hat.
– Mid-season (below 25°)
Thin fleece or wool sweater, windbreaker, cotton-free shorts or pants, socks, closed-toe sneakers

* Bring with you : At least one liter of drinking water and a snack

A CANOE OR KAYAK TRIP: HOW DOES IT WORK?
You arrive at the base whose coordinates I gave you earlier. Introductions are made, I provide you with a watertight can (one for two people), you put on your “kayaker” outfit and a minibus takes us to the start with the equipment.
Before we embark, I explain the basics of river navigation. The embarkation points are usually calm, and I give you as much time as you need to familiarize yourself with the maneuvers before setting off downstream.
I sail among you and am never far away to explain what’s going on or offer advice.
Depending on the progress of the descent, I suggest a stop for swimming, lounging, nibbling, taking photos and so on.
At the landing stage, we pull the boats out of the water and the minibus takes us back to our cars.
