Hiking Sept Cascades (Tamarind Falls) - Half Day
Description
The Tamarind Falls, also called the 7 cascades, is an enjoyable hike in the heart of the island. Our 3 hours guided hike is a highlight of the best waterfalls on the spot. Surrounded by lush green forests and dark volcanic rocks, we progress on single tracks and open areas offering astonishing views upon the falls and the canyons. During the walk, we have the possibility to enjoy a nice swim in the natural pool that water has carved in the rock, and appreciate a natural massage under the cascades. Please note that this is not a flat hike; it involves traversing varied terrain with both ascents and descents over rocky surfaces and steep sections with roots. You may encounter challenging and technical parts along the trail. In some instances, you may need to rely on your hands for support, using branches or tree roots to navigate through these sections.

The guide was amazing! Thank you
A very beautiful hike of the seven waterfalls with our guide Gilles, who was very attentive and took the time to show us the surrounding flora. Very nice, thanks to him for this moment.
Superb experience with our private guide Yudish! To do and redo ...
Wonderful experience, a hike in the heart of nature and beautiful waterfalls! Thanks to Gilles for his knowledge and good humor! We recommend it 100%!
Very beautiful waterfalls and hiking with two great guides, Yudish and Ludovic, who love their island and are very kind. Thank you to them for this experience.
Brilliant trip, would recommend! Our guides Yudish and Ludovic were organised, friendly, knowledgeable and made the experience so much fun! They ensured everybody was safe and comfortable with the pace and we stopped for plenty of photos and they gave us interesting info on plants, animals and geology! Breathtaking views and even had a lovely swim in one of the waterfall pools! Amazing, thank you!
We did this magnificent hike made possible by two excellent guides, Yudish and Ludovic. Anecdotes, historical and cultural information. We also had a great time with Yudish's puns 🤣. Ludovic was very attentive. He always ensures that you are doing well and that you feel good. We sweated, but it was great; a big thank you to both of you. Keep it up.
We did the tour of the 7 waterfalls with Henri and had a wonderful time! It was a beautiful tour and Henri was helpful throughout the entire hike. He helped us find the best path and was especially good with our 8 year old. He helped her climb, held her hand during the more difficult parts and was always cheerful. We really recommend visiting the waterfalls and going with Henri!
We had an excellent time with our guide Henri. Each waterfall was more enchanting than the last. Thanks to him.
A beautiful family hike with Yudish. Very professional and passionate.
