Beautiful walk

5.00Great Things to do with the family. Starting with the preparation of the donkey "pitchounette" (brushing, hugging, installation of equipment and instructions). Then walk and during the discovery journey of the animal (how to move it forward, its intelligence, its history, what it eats or not, etc). We enjoyed a lot with a very welcoming hostess and who knows her job well. Thank you again for this great experience.
A great experience!!

5.00Small day trip with Tagada on a school trip with my daughter. We had the chance to be accompanied by a guide who loves donkeys but also nature. The kids loved it.

5.00The donkeys of the beautiful donkey are wonderful. If like me, this was your first time with these animals, no stress, they put goodwill and anyway Estelle teaches you everything with pedagogy before departure. I recommend everyone to come and walk the Melusin country with them.
Fantastic adventure

5.00We discovered great places and took the time to get to know the donkeys that are fabulous animals, and a very good guide not to hide anything. We could have thought of ourselves as a Lord of the Rings adventure movie. It is with pleasure that we will start again!
