Je recommande vivement cette excursion. J'ai reçu deux jours avant un mail pour les explications de la prise en charge qui étaient très claires. La guide était très impliquée et nous a donné énormément de précisions. Nous avons pu profitez à fond de chaque instant. C'était une excellente journée.

Best een mooie tocht over het eiland. Via het meer de bergen in. Indruk wekkend. Om uit te komen aan de zuid kant van het eiland. Terug weg nog een mooie foto stop. Alleen jammer dat het in het Duits als Engels was. Omdat je bij het boeken voor een taal moest kiezen.
