1.00We were very disappointed when our tour was canceled the day of the tour. We were told that there was a parade that happens once a year that ended by 5pm. That is when our tour would have begun. If it is such an important parade, they should have canceled long before this date, or not even made this date available to begin with. We would have been able to find a different tour for this day then. But we had no time to do so.

5.00Stephie is a passionate person. We went for a 2h ride without seeing time pass. Fortunately there is this kind of excursion to learn more about the city, because the museum no longer exists. I recommend!

5.00The Marigot tour that Stéphie suggests is a superb walk which allows you to delve into the past and understand the evolution of the center of the island as well as the very important relationship between this district of the island and the others. You will be guided using clear and dated information, anecdotes and archive photos. A tour that I recommend to everyone, both to tourists curious to learn more and to locals. Thank you again for this visit ⭐
