    A wonderful family experience! The bike ride through the Green Venice was magnificent, punctuated by Damien's fascinating explanations about the history and ecosystem of the Poitevin marsh. Very comfortable bikes, friendly atmosphere, and even our 5 and a half year old son loved it! Thank you Damien for this great time!

    We had a great day with Damien. He is inexhaustible about this beautiful region of the marshes, the picnic was very good. We'll come back for another ride!

    The place is pleasant, it was sunny so things are already looking good. Damien is very pleasant and is not stingy with comments and explanations. We would not imagine that this marsh is historically so rich. Thank you for this visit 👍
