About Tour Guide Freddy I.
Having more than 15 years of experience as an environmental consultant in different structures in France and abroad, I am now reorienting myself toward an activity that has always fascinated me. Eco-tourism and contact with people from different parts of the world are an environment in which I like to evolve. I take the opportunity to enrich this activity with my professional knowledge and my skills in environmental project management and local culture.
We are a team of professional guides, with a lot of experience behind us, each specialising in different areas. We cover different disciplines such as: geology, biology, photography, marine biology. Furthermore, we are of different nationalities, which makes us even more valuable and versatile.
