    Rafting Verdon - 2h15
    "Rafting on the Verdon was one of the highlights of our vacation in France. Experiencing the nature of the natural park from the viewpoint of the river was a new and fun experience for us. There was enough time to take in the sights while paddling and bumping to and fro on the river and its shores was a lot of fun as well. Our guide was very professional and gave clear commands for manoeuvres at appropriate times of the trip. The additional information given by him on the surrounding nature and the region was also very interesting."Gregor · September 2024

"Although our initially booked tour could not go ahead due to insufficient participants, there was good communication from the organization and good alternative proposals were made. Cedric was a good guide and made it a great afternoon for me and my family with very young children (the youngest was 5 years old and was looked after well and safely by him)."
