At your selected time, we will commence our journey by picking you up from your chosen meeting point in Fort-de-France. Departing from Martinique's capital, we'll head towards the remarkable northern region of the island.

Our first destination will be the Balata Sacré-Cœur Church, an architectural gem inspired by the Sacré-Cœur in Paris.
