About this tour

Your guide navigates salt marshes and lagoons teeming with white horses, black bulls, and pink flamingos, stopping in Saintes Maries de la Mer village for a breather. Expect dusty tracks, genuine local knowledge, and chances to capture the region's untamed landscape.

What to expect
You'll spend four hours bouncing across unpaved tracks in an open or partially enclosed 4x4, stopping frequently to spot wildlife and take photos. The terrain is flat but rough—bring a scarf for dust. Your guide steers towards lagoons and marshland where you'll see horses grazing and bulls grazing in their natural state, alongside resident and migratory birds. The midway village stop lets you stretch your legs and grab refreshment before heading back through the park.
Good to know
