Guide Bourbon

Enjoy an exceptional experience with Guide Bourbon, exploring the depths of the Cirque of Cilaos and learning about the life of a Cilaos local from one of the tiny, remote hamlets along the windy Îlet-à-Cordes road, seemingly suspended between earth and sky, in a quiet, breathtakingly beautiful setting. This family makes a living through permaculture, a unique and ingenious way of growing crops, in poor rocky soil, that is low-input and uses no fertilizer or chemical products. They\'ll teach you all about permaculture, in the most effective way possible - by getting involved!
Good humour, swarthy smiles and the pleasure of working the land await you. And to round things off, you\'ll have a chance to sample some of the Cirque\'s renowned gastronomical cuisine, with a delicious, home-made meal, cooked on-site.
Of course, there are plenty of other attractions worth visiting on the island including la Roche Merveilleuse, a Museum of Days Gone By, some of the world\'s most famous embroidery and shopping - an action-packed day of interest and excitement guaranteed!
