Security

The guides accompanying you are state-certified. In addition to knowing safety procedures, they specialize in the very specific weather risks of our region. Corsica is a mountainous island, and its weather can change very quickly and spontaneously in some areas. Our guides are there to ensure your safety, so it is important to follow their instructions, advice, and recommendations. Our entire team works together to ensure the safety of the group.

Other supervisors

Transportation will be provided by other members of our team. You'll be able to enjoy the scenery during the various journeys and chat with your guide!
