Beautiful sea walk - Very nice sea walk, well explained. They've taken a lot of eyes. It's really a walk you have to do 1x in your life. The captain a former Breton fisherman sailor walked us for 3 hours in beautiful places.

An unforgettable excursion - We loved our excursion with the friendly Captain Amaury who introduced us to the creeks of Piana in a unique way by sneaking through the rocks and accompanying Corsican songs during visits to the most impressive creeks. We were moved by such beauty. You have to live it to understand it. We also enjoyed the Scandola reserve. Amaury gave us a lot of explanations, not too much, just enough. We saw mountain goats on the rocks. This is one of the most beautiful excursions we have made. Thank you Amaury, we highly recommend.

Perfect for us - Great time spent with family in the hands of our guide captain. Between his shares on the many tourist curiosities, his good communicative humor and his expert driving, we loved our outing. Special mention to the "Terra Corsa" which completely overwhelmed us in the highlights of the expedition, to give a very friendly immersive side! To think that we had hesitated to rent a boat to visit for ourselves... Clearly an excellent choice about us.
