What to expect

Bel Ombre Nature Reserve

Across this guided Bel Ombre Nature Reserve buggy tour, you follow off-road tracks through native landscapes, with your expert local guide leading the way. The route includes dedicated wildlife stops and time to swim at Hirondelles Waterfall and L'Exemple natural rock pool.

Features

• Spend roughly 2 hours on a guided off-road buggy tour through Bel Ombre Nature Reserve, using a buggy ride to navigate dirt tracks and changing terrain that standard vehicles cannot access. Your guide sets the pace and direction, so you can focus on the ride and surroundings.

• Look out for native wildlife and endemic bird species during planned wildlife and bird sightings stops, while your guide provides commentary about what you are seeing and the habitats you pass through. These pauses create time for photos and observation away from the vehicle.

• Enjoy a swim at Hirondelles Waterfall and L'Exemple natural rock pool, where you can cool off in fresh water before continuing the route. The experience at these water spots is complemented by a welcome drink that is included in your tour.

• Benefit from inclusions that keep the outing straightforward: food and beverages are provided during the activity, and round-trip transfers or round-trip hotel transfers are included so you do not need to arrange separate transport to and from the tour.
