Safaraid Dordogne reserves the right to cancel any departure for safety reasons (river level too high, weather alert, possibility of storm, etc.). This cancellation will result in an immediate refund of your deposit or a modification of the dates of your stay.
Attention !
As the watertightness of the containers is not guaranteed , we strongly advise you not to take on board objects that are sensitive to water such as your cameras, telephones, etc.
No recourse will be possible in the event of a problem.
