For 3 years now, they have been taking small groups from every corner of world into the very remote and unmapped parts of the Dordogne, exploring prehistoric caves, shelters, troglodytes as well as Roman and Medievel ruines.

NEW FOR 2010 "Sacred River of Dreams"
.
After our "Valley of Caves" tour, the "Canoe / Hike the Vezere' is our second most popular trip, and last year we had to turn down 47 people for this trip alone. "Canoe Hike the Vezere" is a fantastic (long) day trip, as the title suggests, canoeing and hiking to various prehistoric places of interest. However, we did have one big problem with this trip, and that was to decide WHICH prehistoric sites to hike to, because we can only fit so much into "Dawn till Dusk" and there is just so much to see, so, we came up with this new Trip Sacred River of Dreams.
Sacred River of Dreams is the ultimate adventure, we will canoe and explore 30 miles of the Vezere River. Our ancestors settled here, and roamed this area more than 460,000 years ago. These were the hunting grounds of the Neaderthals, and it was here that our ancestors the Cro Magnon settled. This area is riddled with prehistoric caves, shelters and troglodytes, that are unmapped, unknown and unforgettable. Too much to explore in just one day, so we will stay a night in a real Neanderthal cave, with spectacular views of the valley and river. On day 2 we will continue down river and continue our exploration, and at the end of this adventure we will all enjoy a delicious meal in Les Eyzies de Tayac.
This trip will be offered twice a week, from April thru October 20th. NO trips during July and August, and a max. of 6 people per trip ( 3 canoes)
If you would like to do a canoe / hike trip like this, but would rather not, or cannot do an overnight trip, then consider our "Canoe / Hike the Vezere" trip.
As with ALL our trips, you are guaranteed a UNIQUE and exciting trip of a lifetime.
