“Le contenu de l activité et sa durée ne correspondent pas à ce qui est annoncé . Prise en charge à l hôtel à 15h 15,retour à 17h 40. Aucun guide pour accompagner le groupe dans la mangrove, nous avons été en difficulté pour pagayer entre les racines d arbres, personne ne s est soucié de nous. Pas de nourrissage des poissons, pas de visite de ferme d ananas. Expérience très décevante. A déconseiller. Dommage car le lieu était beau.”
