Magnificent sea trip with a great guide to tell us the history of Saint-Malo 🌊
A wonderful tour with a very pleasant and informative guide. Providing coffee for everyone was also a very nice touch.
This boat trip is highly recommended during your holiday in this region. With an excellent guide you will sail around the bay, a beautiful experience.
- History and tasting 2 hours - 2 hours of magnificent sailing along the coasts of Saint-Malo and Dinard, passing by the sea forts in a friendly atmosphere on Nicolas's boat, who is very kind and knowledgeable about the history of the Saint-Malo bay. I recommend it 👍
Nice tour with good pleasant guide. Could speak English very well and kept a close eye on his guests that no one got seasick. We did the tour with a 4 and 6 year old and they liked it too.
The boat trip was worth it. Nicolas talks very enthusiastically and in both French and English. We even got coffee with a cookie on the way. It was a nice boat trip with fun facts about St Malo and Dinan.
