Emilian est une guide trés prepare
T
Parfait
Nous avions réservé l’excursion dans le bassin d’Arcachon et à la dune du Pilat. L’expérience était parfaite et nous recommandons cette visite. Le guide était très professionnel et sympathique et son VAN spacieux et confortable. La dégustation d’huîtres était généreuse et conviviale. La dune est majestueuse et c’est un endroit à ne pas manquer. 5 h pour cette excursion était suffisante.
Super après-midi
On a passé une après midi très agréable avec Emmanuel, guide polyglotte et très sympathique. Il nous a fait découvrir la région et son activité ostréicole ainsi que le magnifique panorama de la dune du pilât.
