Super expérience, je n'ai pas vraiment l'habitude des excursions organisées mais ça a été très utile pour découvrir l'île seule. Madu est un guide passionnant qui veut partager son amour pour ses racines, et il a réussi. Le repas était très bon également. Merci à Greenline tour.

Mahdou, our French speaking guide, had a wonderful day! The mountains and valleys are impressive. Our guide, born on the island, shares with us the evolution of life on the island, projects, ways of living of the inhabitants according to their locality. It answers all our questions, introduces us to agriculture and the challenges of climatic and environmental hazards. We will come back for sure and recommend Madhou to all French tourists!
