The lunch cruise combines cruising, sightseeing, and the pleasure of a delicious meal. The dishes are prepared by caterers using fresh, seasonal produce, with recipes showcasing the flavors of the Lot-et-Garonne region.

Two cruise durations are available departing from Castelmoron-sur-Lot. Choose a three-hour cruise or extend the experience to four hours, including passage through a lock.

The Three-Hour Lunch Cruise

A Cruise Towards Pinel-Hauterive

Available on Tuesdays and Thursdays, this cruise usually departs at 12:00 p.m. from Port Lalande in Castelmoron-sur-Lot. The boat heads towards Pinel-Hauterive, passing stone houses, lush riverbanks, and remnants of the former railway line.

The meal includes a starter, main course, and dessert, excluding drinks. After three hours of cruising and dining, the boat is scheduled to return to the dock at around 3:00 p.m.

The Four-Hour Lunch Cruise

An Extended Route with a Lock Passage

Usually scheduled on Sundays, this cruise generally begins at 11:30 a.m. Departing from Castelmoron-sur-Lot, it offers the opportunity to admire villages and medieval fortified towns from the river, before passing through a lock and continuing towards Granges-sur-Lot.

Departures from Villeneuve-sur-Lot are also scheduled on certain Sundays in July and August. The route then passes through the Virebeau lock before heading upstream along the Lot towards Saint-Sylvestre-sur-Lot and Penne-d’Agenais.
