Régis was incredibly kind, patient, and a great teacher, always attentive to the whole group. We couldn't have asked for a better guide for our first caving trip, and we were so fortunate to benefit from his extensive knowledge of the caves: a huge thank you to him! To top it all off, he welcomed us to a beautiful setting at the foot of the mountains for the night between our two days of caving. A truly rejuvenating experience, perfect for disconnecting.
