Unique experience - We had an absolutely wonderful day with Damien!
From the very beginning, he put everyone at ease with his warm Welcoming and communicative smile.
The course was perfectly adapted to our level, punctuated by beautiful landscapes and exciting anecdotes about the region.
His sense of organization, his good humor and his knowledge of the ground have turned this outing into a real adventure.
We discovered hidden corners, took the time to enjoy each break, and ended the day feeling like we had experienced something special.
Many thanks for this unique experience! We highly recommend to anyone who wants to combine nature and pleasure.

Harmonious and rewarding day - A big thank you for discovering the marshes for a whole day. The perfect balance is between the morning boat tour, where you will be carried away by the scenery, and the afternoon bike tour of the parched marshland landscape. The rhythm is never rushed, we have time to observe, listen to explanations and wonder. We loved visiting the asinerie, an unusual and charming experience. A resourceful day for a harmonious overview of the marsh and a better understanding of its issues.

Swamps otherwise - Thank you Damien for a wonderful day. The discovery of the marsh of Chest from different historical, gastronomic approaches and its artisans is original. Cycling allows you to gain height and observe the different environments of the marsh, its changes and environmental issues.
