🚫 Pets not allowed
👟 Shoes to be removed at the entrance (carpet)
⚠️ From mid-September to mid-December: lowering the water level by about 10 metres to anticipate flooding. The gangway then becomes very steep — difficult access for people with reduced mobility.
⚠️ In case of high heat or heat wave, it can be hot on board in the afternoon despite the air conditioning. But the boat has been designed for your comfort: thanks to the mosquito nets, you can leave everything open at night to enjoy the coolness, and use the fans to sleep well.
