5.00We had a great kayak tour with Chani. She taught us a lot about the plants and animals of the mangroves. The tour took place in French and English (especially for us :-). We could understand everything very well. Paddleboarding was relaxed and easy to handle. The reception with Francis was very nice. He could even speak German. We had a lot of fun and would do the tour again at any time.
Beautiful canoe trip through the mangrove forests and a small walk to a place with king palms
