We meet you at our base in Méloans-Revel (free car park) 10 minutes before the tour starts. We will provide you with recent professional equipment with a full wetsuit, neoprene socks, helmet and life jacket. Then, the small group will take the shuttle bus for about 10 minutes to get to the starting point of the activity. And, our tour will begin as soon as your water safety training is completed. Normally, each raft welcomes between 4 and 7 people, depending on the water level.

The state-qualified guide, aboard with you, will determine the route according to the age of the youngest participant and the motivation of each. You will be able to enjoy the gentle rapids and the unusual landscapes that surround you during 1.5-hour of navigation.

Once the tour is over, the shuttle will take you back to the base where you will find changing rooms, hot showers, a sauna and free activities (bowling, Mölkky, slacklines) if you wish to continue this incredible day!
