The organization carefully designs the tours, so that authentic experiences take the visitors on a totally pleasant and rewarding adventure; the discovery of the early French Acadian roots in great natural surroundings!

Whether it is by water or land, along the inner perimeter of the Bay of Fundy (La Baie Française), or the jagged Atlantic coast you will be touched by the rich Heritage of Nova Scotia; home of “old Acadie”; Land of Evangéline. 

All packages are either: 
         Custom designed for the specific needs & requests of the groups (family/associations, companies, etc.);
