Awesome driver - made our tour special - Excellent tour around Noumea with an English speaking driver (Yvan). Yvan was punctual, professional, friendly and made sure we had an excellent day. Enjoyed our stops at the market, chocolate shop in the town centre, the hill overlooking Noumea, Tjibaou Cultural Centre and the zoo, however the place we were taken to lunch was excellent! I also used this company for my airport transfers and like Yvan, Ludovic was also friendly, professional and punctual. Thank to Gaetan for his help in arranging these drivers. Also, both Yvan and Ludovic were very safe and smooth drivers - much appreciated. When I return to New Caledonia, I’ll be reaching out to these guys again.

Great tour for a taste of Noumea - Excellent Day! With a variety of cultural and foodie experiences. Beautiful lunch at Marmite; a visit to Tonton Jules Chocolate shop which was yum!
The time at the cultural centre and nature park was also great. Our guide Marie/Anne very knowledgeable and personable.
Highly recommended!

Definitely Recommend - We don’t speak much french so we’re a little concerned about the guide we would get however when Anne walked out she was very welcoming and instantly put our minds at ease.
She was willing to adjust the day to our request of places we did/didn’t want to go to and didn’t hesitate to give us the best tips and recommendations of what to do and where to do.
Anne also has other tours she does which is such a shame we are leaving the island so soon because we would have definitely booked other tours through her too!

Tour was guide except for the guide - I enjoyed this tour as it covered the 3 major things I wanted to see:
The cultural centre
The zoological and botanical gardens
La Marmite et tire bouchon.
There was ample time to see and experience these activities and I was not disappointed.
I have given this a 3 star rating because of the guide who spoke about how good she was a guide and the generous tips that she received. In other words hint hint! And that really took the pleasure out of this tour.
By all means book the tour but I hope you have a better guide than we did.
