We hired a 4 man canoe as we're total novices! We booked on line the night before and this was necessary at this time of year. We turned up in Le Bugue which was really easy to find just behind the aquarium. Parking was easy too in the morning but looked alot busier when we returned in the afternoon. We were given lifejackets and oares, shown our canoe and told to row with the flow of the river to our pick up point at the allocated time to be returned by bus. The only thing I would say is that it would have been nice to have a little direction on how to navigate a canoe! Abit of trial and error and we sorted it but had a few "moments". The river though is very shallow and calm. We had to get put of the boat a couple of times to dislodge ourselves from the shallow areas! Overall a beautiful experience and one we're really pleased we did as a family. …

Beautiful views along the calm and shallow in parts la Vezere river. Lovely and helpful staff - the lady even let me buy a baguette from her for our lunch. Our 3 kids loved this experience.

Having been canoeing on the Dordogne a couple of days previously we decided to look for a different experience. We chose CANOËric and they quickly got us prepped up and ready to go with lifejackets, canoes and paddles. They transferred us 15 km upstream. The river is very different to Dordogne as it is quieter, has fewer people on it and not many places to stop. In fact the only place to stop was a small temporary island in the middle of the river. We floated and paddled down the Vézère river to the CANOËric base itself and then drove home. 15km over three hours and about €17 each. …

we went for the 21 km trip and we had a great time. A complement to Chantalle for coordinating the last minute zo well. Responses to my e-mails were super quick which was vers pleasant. Also nice that Canoeric has a nice bar area at their site and that you can park there for free.…

We were advised by our Alfresco rep David about Canoeric at Le Bugue - all we can say is they are excellent. We had a great journey along the river from Le Bugue to Sors. The trip took 2 hours and we were collected and taken back to Le Bugue in a minibus. There are some amazing views along the river - you will not be disappointed. You will need to bring or buy water shoes - as you will need to hop out of your boat/kayak as there are several very shallow sections. The kayak easily overcame these sections. Staff were super friendly and helpful. Great afternoon out for us as a family of 4 (x2 adults and x2 kiddies 6y and 8y). Although 2 hours was just about enough for our kiddies before getting bored. This is a must do if you are in the area!…
