The best day of our holidays!

5.00We had the best day of our holiday! From the outset warm Welcoming: Yoann greeted us with a smile. Then the whole day passed as if in a dream, beautiful landscapes, Yoann who gave us information and told us anecdotes, his kindness and humor, a swim in a magical cove with clear and transparent water. Scandola Reserve is an incredible, majestic, impressive site. The perfect girolata stop too. We didn’t know what we were going to find given the comments we had read before coming but in fact it’s really a lost corner to see absolutely. Of course there are people but we had lunch in a small restaurant on the beach where we were very well received despite the crowd and it was delicious. The swim on the return was incredible, we swam among the fish!! We keep unforgettable memories of this day and tons of photos that we will look at this winter on rainy days. And thank you to the charming hostess who informed us at length when we hesitated about the choice of walk. In short we recommend 1000%
Thank you

5.00Thank you for showing us this beautiful and important area of coastline in Corsica. Ivan skilfully navigated the rocks in higher than usual waves so we could fully immerse ourselves inti the intense surroundings and we loved his enthusiasm for nature and history of Corsica. Girolata was like a dream I highly recommend this trip
Unforgettable day

5.00Unforgettable day A breathtaking landscape!!! Dominique and Joseph at the top; be it the organization, explanations and maneuvers to get as close as possible to the caves!!! And the icing on the cake the dolphins came to accompany us a bit of the way. We strongly recommend the site The big blue in Cargèse
Beautiful and above all very fun!

5.00The guide spoke French and some English and was very friendly. The outward journey along the rocks and caves was largely a bit slower to see everything clearly. The stop at Girolata was in a beautiful bay, especially from a hill very nice. The cows were walking on the beach. On the way back it was going fast and the boat was flapping on the waves. In a beautiful bay we were allowed to splash into the water from the boat. Wonderful and fun for young and old. We deliberately chose a small dinghy with a small group and we got exactly what we hoped.
Extraordinary day

5.00Thank you very much Yoann, we enjoyed our ride on the semi 12 places. You've been able to convey all the magic of this place thanks to your comments. We loved everything and the little extra, the swimming stop. Thanks also for allowing my son Noa to take over with you, a nice exchange. And then with the Corsican songs in addition, a treat
