A famous flat-bottomed gabarre, once used to transport goods up the Dordogne to Bordeaux.

The tradition perpetuated by the Caminade family, the last gabarrier of La Roque-Gageac under Napoleon III, is represented today by Pierre and Christelle in the respect of the trade. From La Roque-Gageac, you can go downstream on this famous gabarre, a flat-bottomed boat which was used in the past to transport goods on the Dordogne to Bordeaux. Today the boats are powered by quiet, eco-efficient engines. The 6.5 km trip takes 55 minutes. Audioguides in 8 languages, including Japanese and Chinese.

belle balade commentée en gabarre d'une durée de 55 minutes qui explique la vie des gabarriers, l'importance de la rivière et de la vallée à l'époque du moyen âge, des infos sur la faune et la flore, sans oublier le magnifique paysage. cette balade au fil de l'eau nous fait découvrir le château de la Malartrie et de Castelnaud, une belle vue d'ensemble de la Roque-Gageac et une vue lointaine des jardins de Marqueyssac.

Très belle promenade avec de très belles vues un peu gâchées hélas par la pluie mais le bateau avait mis sa "couverture" pour nous abriter alors on reviendra par beau temps

Une promenade commentée assez sympathique. Beaucoup d'informations sur l'histoire des bâtiments, sur la faune et la flore.
Very pretty walk on the Dordogne, along Roque Gageac. Pleasant guided tour which allows you to better know the history of this very pretty village.
