A beautiful tour of the coulanques national park. Alex was an excellent tour guide. He knew all of the best spots to check out and found an incredible spot to get out and have lunch, swim, etc.

We went as a family with 3 kids: ages 12, 15, 16. The company reached out to us a few days in advance to let us know that the weather forecast for the day we had booked was not looking good so they offered us a different date at no extra charge. They even coordinated with our other planned activities so it would work with our schedule. Raphaelle made sure we were all safe and having a good time. She knew a lot about the area and gave us time to explore the caves and nooks and crannies. She took all the stress out of travel with teens and made sure everyone was accommodated. Great day and wonderful team!

We feasted on this kayak trip from 3h to sunset. Thanks to Raphaëlle we were able to discover secret corners of the green island and the Mugel. Top framing that allows everyone to feast and make it.
