Nous avons pu profiter de ce voyage avec nos 3 jeunes enfants dans de super conditions grâce à Jérôme. Le timing était toujours respecté, les changements de programme/horaires à notre demande toujours acceptés. Jérôme s'est également occupé de modifier le programme à Ilha Grande pour que nous puissions profiter au mieux de l'excursion en bateau en fonction de la météo.
Il a toujours été joignable et réactif.
Et que dire de son équipe.
Les chauffeurs ont toujours été ponctuels, prudents, patients et serviables.
Et les guides (Jérôme, Paulo, Ivete, Gustavo) passionnants, attentionnés, intéressés et aux petits soins pour nos enfants et nous.
Jérôme: Un grand merci pour ta bienveillance, ton professionnalisme, et ta gentillesse.
On réfléchit déjà à notre prochain périple au Brésil ????
Il nous a fait déjeuner dans de très bons restaurants typiques.
Merci Jérôme !
