My name is Charlène, and I'm your tour guide in Martinique, the island that has captured my heart for the past six years. I am very passionate about my work, and enjoy creating friendly and welcoming experiences that generate authentic memories. I guarantee I will take the proper time to offer you an immersive experience in each place we visit, so you can fully get immersed in Martinique's beauty. I am convinced that we all ultimately share a common ground: a shared appreciation for the beauty and diversity of nature... and I find it very moving to see how this simple connection bring people together. This island has been recognized by UNESCO as a World Biosphere Reserve, and I'm certain that it will enchant you such as it bewitched me. My greatest pleasure is seeing my visitors' eyes light up when I expose them to the breathtaking scenery and vibrant Creole culture of Martinique, and noting how surprised and happy people go back home after their visit. Sharing with travellers from all walks of life is what motivates me most. In my comfortable van, I will take you to discover magnificent landscapes, lush nature and all the little local wonders that make this island so unique. I would be happy to tailor itineraries to suit your needs, interests, and of course physical abilities, so you can enjoy the experience at your own pace. I’ll be readily available to assist you even underwater in snorkelling sessions! Whatever your preferences, I'll always strive to deliver a special day that remains etched in your memory.

Overview of your Fort De France tour

On this tour, you'll be surprised by the different scenery you'll get to see in just 4 hours! The famous Jardin de Balata is so charming that you'll feel as if you were entering inside a painting, drawn by a landscape artist who was very passionate about nature. Since the garden doesn't have flat/even grounds through its entirety, you could choose to walk across a bridge hanging from the garden's trees, and enjoy a mesmerizing view. And for the most passionate nature lovers, rest assured you'll have the chance to enjoy a swim in a small natural pool with a waterfall, that we could reach by going down a couple of steps. Book this tour for a unique experience of connection with nature and with your inner self, which you'll never forget.

Your Fort De France tour itinerary

-After picking you up from Fort-de-France, we'll drive through rainforest along Route de la Trace. -We'll then make our first stop at the Balata Sacré Coeur, which looks exactly like thee one in Montmartre (Paris), only smaller. -Our next stop will be the beautiful Balata Garden, where you'll get to walk between its plants, trees & tropical flowers. You could even opt to go across a bridge hanging from its treetops. -We'll later drive to the Absalon waterfall, a marvel in a verdant setting, where you'll have the opportunity to enjoy the fresh water coming from the mountain. -Finally, we'll take a 15 min walk into the lush rainforest to reach the clear water Alma stream, which we'll walk alongside of for a bit. This little walk is an immersion between the old high trees of this protected area, which gives the impression of being in the middle of a jungle of lianas & big roots. -At last, we'll return to Fort-de-France by once again driving along Route de la Trace, until I drop you off.
