Au programme, visite d’une vanilleraie, d’une distillerie de rhum, d’une ferme perlière mais surtout des rires, de la bonne humeur, un jardin de corail magnifique, un excellent repas sur un motu splendide et un coco show à en pleurer de rire.
Merci à toute l’équipe, on rigole encore de ces magnifiques souvenirs.
The tour operator was incredibly irresponsible and difficult to communicate with throughout this ordeal. Instead of addressing the issue, they tried to make it seem like I was at fault for their misinformation. This experience caused me a great deal of stress, ruining what should have been a relaxing vacation. Eventually, I had to cancel the tour, leaving me without any alternatives.
If you're considering booking with ARE TOURS, I strongly advise against it. Their lack of reliability and poor communication can turn your dream vacation into a stressful nightmare.
