Privileg'G

I make guided excursions, in passenger boat (2 to 12 passengers). I propose the discovery of marine and coastal ecosystems (white bottoms, mangrove, coral, ...) on the Atlantic coast of Martinique (Francois, Vauclin, Robert).

Les Kayaks des Ilets du Francois

Reviewed By EveLat

What a day! We turned up without a reservation but Magali was very accommodating, lending us some snorkelling equipment and even providing drinking water to take with us at no extra cost. After a short but very clear briefing, we set off for what ended up being one of the most memorable experiences in Martinique. The rowing to the little islands was tough at times due to the current but once we landed on Islet Thierry all the struggles were forgotten. The midday party in the middle of the sea with some Ti Punch and homemade vegetarian accras (which were delicious!) was the highlight of the trip... that is until we got to Islet Oscar where Magali kindly arranged for us to have a wonderful meal with drinks and dancing, all for €10 per head. After some bathing, snorkelling and exploring we headed back, were shown a shower and had a great chat with Magali and Hervé. Such wonderful warm people and so passionate about their business and about Martinique. I can't recommend them enough. Merci beaucoup, Magali et Hervé! P.S. Do use higher factor suncream and reapply regularly. We managed to get burned even with the suncream.

Habitation Clement

From the name of the famous family who settled there for nearly a hundred years from 1887, the Habitation Clément is a vast agricultural area of 160 hectares, nestled in the town of Le François, in the South-East of Martinique. Dominated by a Creole house dating back to the 18th century, this site, listed as a historical monument in 1996, is home to a major heritage site, a well-known contemporary art centre and a renowned rum house in the heart of sugar cane plantations.

Our Cruise ship had called at Martinique and 6 of us quickly found a Taxi (Mini bus) just outside the port. We negotiated a fare (180 Euros Total - 30 Euros each) and the driver took us to Habitation Clement. The journey was about 30 minutes and the driver said we would need about 2 hours and that he would wait for us. The entrance fee was a further 13 Euros each. (So a total of 43 euros each person for the taxi & entrance which we thought was reasonable). You start off walking round the lovely grounds admiring the modern sculptures. Then there is the old (unused) Rum distillery building, equipment and Rum storage facilities which was interesting and then the old Plantation house to look around. The tour ends with a visit to the shop where you can taste (and purchase) some of the different rums they produce. All in all, a lovely trip and well worth the visit. The driver was waiting for us as promised and took us back to the ship.
