A beautiful outing to visit and swim with the boat experience. - Very pleasant exit, Our guide was very friendly, the explanations in French interesting and he drove very well. The islands are well chosen and it makes for a very pleasant day. Only downside, the very tourist restaurant that was recommended to us. But there is not too much choice 🤣

Great tour with sunset - The trip was great, you get to places you wouldn't otherwise see. Our guide (english/french) was very friendly and knowledgeable about the area. We have learned a lot of interesting facts. Unfortunately, the tour had to be rescheduled in some places due to the weather.
