Gilles the best tourgide ever

We had an amazing time on this tour! Our guide Gilles was super amazing and told us a lot about the island and its history! It was absolutely fascinating and we could have listened to him for hours! The tour itself was super beautiful. We saw lots of birds and it was very relaxing and peaceful. We would absolutely recommend this tour to anyone!

Great afternoon kayaking

My husband and I went on the guided kayak tour of Tamarin River with Gilles and Christopher as our guides. We are fairly new to kayaking but found the pace good and the guides were helpful if we got stuck. We had great views of the surrounding area including seeing the monkeys, crabs and birds. Gilles and Christopher were great and shared lots of knowledge with us as well. Would highly recommend!

Nice trip with good guidance from Gilles

Today we did a family kayak trip on the Tamarin River accompanied by Gilles. The surf school is easy to find and is located on a parking lot. It was a beautiful trip where we sailed both branches of the river from Tamarin Bay. Gilles gives good support and tells many fun facts about the environment, animals present and history along the way. The group was not too big and everyone got enough attention. Afterwards we were sent some nice pictures of our family. We enjoyed it! Merci beaucoup, Gilles!

We were out on May 30th with our guide Gilles, and it was a wonderful afternoon that we can only recommend! Our guide Gilles shared many exciting pieces of information with us during the tour, and we were even able to observe several families of monkeys. Thank you!!
