OVERSEAS ADVENTURE
TWO CENTRE ADVENTURE
The best of the South of France
Two day canoe descent of the Ardèche + three days of Med watersports + one day of multi activity
Can't decide between a canoe descent of the Ardèche and a week on the Med? Do them both!
What’s it all about?
Can’t decide between a week on the Med and the canoe descent of the Ardèche River? Do them both and include a day of multi activities as well! Spend two days descending the dramatic Ardèche Gorge, the most fantastic open boating river in Europe, returning to base each night and spending one day at the centre taking part in some of the activities on offer. Then travel to the Med for three days to relax and give the watersports a go! Sometimes you will go to the Med first and then the Ardèche – either way it’s guaranteed to be an action-packed week.
What’s it like?
Domaine de Segries in the Ardèche is one of our favourite centres, set in spacious wooded grounds. There’s an outdoor swimming pool, volleyball court and a high ropes course as well as a disco and a sheltered outdoor dining area overlooking the grounds. Accommodation may be indoors in the large stone farmhouse or in tents in the grounds. Please note you will need to bring your own sleeping bag and pillow. Our Med Centre, Mimosa, near Valras Plage, is also exclusive to PGL and opens directly onto the long uncrowded beach.
There’s a dining marquee, games area, shower/toilet block, shop and our disco that caters for up to 300 other PGL-only party goers, so if you want a safe and lively night life, this is the place for you!
Do I need any experience?
No, you don’t need any experience, but you must be water confident.
What does two centre mean?
It’s a two centre holiday with three nights at each centre and a coach transfer in the middle between the centres, including an en-route visit to a water park.
What can I do here?
Two centres mean twice the fun! All of your favourite activities, a new country to explore and the added bonus of the two day canoe descent of the Ardèche River! There’s even a water park excursion – so there’ll be absolutely no time to get bored on this action-packed, weeklong adventure.
Travelling to Mimosa + Domaine de Segries
Coach travel is overnight by executive coach with toilet and DVD and is included from London and Dover/Folkestone. Supplements for regional departures: Manchester £56, Birmingham £45.

Activities
Every day is different
The Two Centre Adventure provides the best of both worlds with a fantasic combination of canoeing on the Ardèche, multi activities and watersports. Please note, not all of these activities are available at both Domaine de Segries and Mimosa (See the specific centre pages for more information).
Evening activities
The fun doesn’t stop there! We also include fun-packed evening entertainment programmes at all our centres, every day, all year round, whichever holiday you choose.

| Morning Activities | Canoe Descent |
| Lunch | Worked up an appetite? Great – it’s time to replenish your energy stores. |

| Dinner | Time to eat again – a different menu each day (and did we mention, often evening meals come with a hot pudding too – or you can stick with fruit if you prefer). |
| Evening Ents | Talent shows, campfires, quizzes and much more – your evening entertainment programme gives you the chance to get together with everyone else in your age group and have some laughs. |
