Highlights
Best way is to let our customers speak : "The tour with Sebastiano was the best guided tour we have ever taken. He is very knowledgeable in history, geology, and the local flora and fauna. His enthusiasm about the island, the rainforest and history inspired us a lot and sparkled our curiosity. He brought us to wonderful, less touristy spots, which we appreciated. His mission was successful; after his tour, we are now huge fans of Martinique and want to visit it again. He is also very friendly, polite and a true gentleman. If you stop in Martinique for a day, going on a tour with Sebastiano is the best thing you can do with your time."

5Highly recommend!
Sebastiano was a great tour guide for our day in Martinique! Showed us so many areas and had lots of knowledge of the island. Was well prepared with walking sticks for us to go see the waterfall and umbrellas in case of a rain shower. We really enjoyed all aspects of his tour and I would do it again in a heartbeat!
5Don't miss this tour! Highlight of our trip.
Beautiful day. Our tour guide was fantastic. Definitely recommend this for anybody wanting to see a bunch of great spots on your port day.
5Wonderful Off the Beaten Path Excursion
Wonderful day excursion off the beaten path with Katrin. Scenic drive to the north end through the rain forest. Enjoyed a waterfall, uncrowded botanical garden, lovely beach, volcanic ruins, rum factory. Even had time for a local lunch during a brief downpour. Katrin was fantastic. Highly recommended!
5Great Excursion
Sebastiano was great about communication before the excursion. One of our favorite parts was the botanical garden. He told us about the plants and we took a nice walk in the rain forest. You can tell he really has a passion/love for it. The waterfall was beautiful. There were 2 vans and our driver was super nice as well. We did have a yummy snack of guava juice and a guava pastry. We stopped at a church and also a rum distillery. We ended at a beach where I was able to get a local beer that he recommended.
5What a great tour should be!
Very informative, helpful, scenic and in-depth. Sebastian loves Martinique, and he’ll make you love it too! I highly recommend this tour for something off the beaten path, and the usual beaches and $20 margaritas. Learn what makes Martinique special, and you’ll want to return!
5Not to be missed!
Sebastiano was a wonderful tour guide around Martinique, which is such a beautiful place. I had never heard of this island, but it was a port on our cruise. He met us right at the cruise terminal - was easy to find and communicative. He was very helpful with information and history about the island throughout our ride in his comfortable van. He stopped to show us many highlights of the island in the rainforest, as well as a great tour through the botanical garden and a stop at the black sand beach. We had a wonderful day with him - and enjoyed the bakery treats from the island too :) He had juice and water for us as well and we were able to get a small snack at the beach cafe. He offered to translate for us as needed. Would definitely recommend this tour for anyone looking for a great way to see Martinique!

About Fort-de-France
Fort-de-France is the capital of Martinique, a French Caribbean city on a wide bay, with an iron cathedral, a market and a green seafront park.
Fort-de-France lies on the west coast of Martinique, on a deep bay sheltered by green hills, with the fortress that gave the city its name standing above the harbour. La Savane, a park of palms and lawns, runs along the seafront beside Fort Saint-Louis. The poet Aimé Césaire was mayor of the city for more than five decades, and the island's airport bears his name.
