Nicols self-drive cruises on the River Lot
Base at Cahors
On a Nicols rental boat, you cruise and explore the 74 km tree-lined River Lot from our Cahors base.
Step back in time as you operate the 17 manual locks as you journey through the valley, discovering ancient villages such as Quercy, the famous Velentré bridge of Cahors, and the stunning village of Saint-Cirq-Lapopie perched high on the hillside.
Some previous boating experience is needed to cruise in this region.
