FRIENDLY RODRIGUES

This company, which has understood all about the new ways of traveling, promotes responsible, supportive, interactive and even participative cultural tourism, where each excursionist becomes an active participant in his or her day of discovery. More than just seeing and savoring, it's all about experiencing to better understand. During the Universe excursion, you'll put on a pair of boots to go fishing for ourite, then get your hands dirty to make a Rodriguaise pie at Doly's (a renowned pastry chef), we go to Laurenza Gaspard's to listen to romances and understand the importance of the sega drum in local culture, we learn to weave vacoas in a family workshop, we visit a Lakaz Palissade, we sing and dance on the beach to the sound of the diatonic accordion of one of Rodrigues' finest musicians! In short, in the course of a single, exclusive, intense and well-crafted day, we push open doors, learn, taste, discuss and share... experiences that would be impossible to carry out alone in this way, which is why we've fallen in love with this fine company and its brilliant themed tours - see details online.

In addition to its excursions by car to meet the locals and discover the island's heritage, Rodrigues Friendly offers original guided walks with Phileas Fogg to "move through time", a super Walking Tour of Port Mathurin, a guided scooter ride with the explosive name of Scootonnerre on secret little roads, etc. Bravo and thank you!
