Hippobus de l'île - balades en carriole
Overview
At the pace of the draught horses, hop aboard the island’s Hippobus for a one-hour guided tour of the salt marshes!
Hervé, the man in the hat, will tell you all about how the island was formed and the history of the salt marshes. He’ll explain how the salt workers produce ‘white gold’ and reveal a few secrets – but not all of them…

No booking required; tickets can be purchased on board the Hippobus.

Free for children under 3
Dogs of all sizes welcome. All payment methods accepted (including holiday vouchers and ‘Chèques Vacances Connect’).
