We have been very busy putting together new and exciting trips and have put together 2 (more coming soon) amazing and unforgettable overnight horse treks, with the choice to bivac or stay at a hotel.
The treks will take you to some of the nicest places this area has to offer, and some of the areas best kept secrets. You will enjoy about 5 hours of horse riding a day. These treks are 2 days 1 night. Our 2 treks are..
* Grotte de Rouffignac
Rouffignac is one of the longest and most ramifide caves with palaeolithic paintings. Total length of all the chambers and galleries in three levels is about 10 km’s.
* Grotte de Bara Bahau
Hollowed out by a vanished underground river and dominating the Vézère valley, the Bara-Bahau Cave was first inhabited by bears, which left many traces of their occupation. Then man in turn took possession 17,000 years ago, turning the cave into a shelter with an inner chamber and sanctuary.
Price for this once in a lifetime Dordogne adventure is just 190 Euro!!! This includes picnics and accommodation. This price does not include. dinner at the accommodation. Add an extra 50 Euro if you choose to stay at a hotel.
Well yet another year has past us by, and we are looking forward to an exciting 2008.
Due to the fact that Walking Dordogne has recently been mentioned in a few well known guide books and published on a few web sites, means the interest and bookings have gone through the roof, and we are already fully booked for May and only have a few places available for June. September and October are filling up as well.
July and August gets very… VERY busy in this region, and we can no longer guarentee the same experience you would get from our tours if booked outside these two months, for this reason we are no longer taking bookings for TOURS in July & August. However we will be offering day trips in the Vezere Valley (see valley of the Neaderthal) and Horse riding, sorry no canoeing, cycling or scenic tours in July or August.
Lots of people contact us and ask us why we do not take larger groups?.. We strongly believe that taking small groups is one of the things that makes us so populer, our groups are never larger than 5 people 4 + guide (under certain circumstances we will take larger groups if they book as a group). By taking small groups you can bond with your group, decisions are easy to make,the tours have a more personal touch, and we will be able to call you by your real name (very difficult to do with groups of 20+) Not to mention that we take our groups to and into caves, ledges, shelters etc. Our groups really experience something unique, and that experience would be lost in a large group.
