    Sylvie_B, Aug 2024
    Un beau moment de partage avec une découverte du Marais Poitevin sauvage en barque, et une balade à vélo guidée par Damien qui a su partager avec le groupe sa passion de la région !

Il est essentiel que les personnes venant avec moi repartent avec un maximum d'informations pour qu'elles souhaitent revenir lors de vacances futures. Au plaisir d'une prochaine fois, Damien d'Original Vélo Tour
