Daniel was our tour guide... - Daniel was our tour guide and he was very enthusiastic, entertaining and seemed to genuinely care for our group. He took us to remote water falls not the popular tourist areas. Daniel wanted everyone to experience a taste of the local Martinique.
Daniel shared a lot of information about the Island and the history that shaped Martinique.
We learned a lot about the local plants , actually tasting ,smelling and touching them. Daniel was very knowledgeable and even shared information via email to all the participants.
Be warned it is a tour with lots of walking , up and down hill and over uneven ground. We didn’t mind but it puts you through your paces if you aren’t used to it or have health issues that maybe be aggravated by exercise and heat.
We had a great time. Daniel was knowledgeable, funny and interesting!

Outstanding experience!! - Daniel is very informative, and takes you to beautiful locations. You get to touch, smell, and taste local plant life. This was an experience we will never forget! We were on our honeymoon cruise when we took this excursion, and Daniel took pictures and videos on our Go Pro for us while we experienced everything so we could both be a part of the experience and have the memories. It was raining most of the day, and it didn't hamper the experience one bit. This was an outstanding tour, and we would love to have him as our guide all over the island when we come back!

Excellent tour, bring snacks - Really informative and interesting tour. Daniel and Virgil were both extremely knowledgeable and passionate. Communication was really good and instructions for meeting were very clear. We saw so many interesting places and learned so much about the history of martinique and it's plant and animal life, topped off with a swim at a beautiful beach. There is no lunch option until the beach which is quite late so make sure to bring snacks and water

I’m certain this is the best North Island excursion one can book. - From the beginning to the end, I’d give Daniel and Virgil a 5 stars. They took us to some little gems, explained history and plants, rhum and plantations….. it was the best tour we could hope for. They took the time to explain our itinerary before we departed, and didn’t disappoint with the places they took us to.

Unforgettable tour of northern Martinique - We had a really great tour of the north of Martinique with Daniel as a guide. He is super friendly, totally relaxed and has introduced us to the plant and spice world of the island with a lot of enthusiasm. In the botanical garden we even got to try different spices – really exciting and something completely different!
Daniel knows the area extremely well and has taken us to beautiful spots and took time to take pictures of us. He also gave us really good tips for snorkeling – thanks to him we could actually see turtles 🐢 An absolute highlight of our holiday!
The rum tasting at the end was also great.
Communication in advance was super straightforward and friendly. You can just tell Daniel loves what he does. For us, the tour was definitely one of the highlights on Martinique.
Clear recommendation – always back!😊

DO NOT BOOK! Unreliable and untrustworthy. - DO NOT BOOK!!
He suddenly wanted money two weeks before the tour and changed the price when everything was agreed months ahead with payment to take place at the time of the tour. He became very angry in his emails when I pointed this out to him.
