Today with Kevin as a guide and 9 other people, we went to the summit of the venerable lady😊 what can I say, lots of very interesting explanations, a beautiful hike of almost 6 hours in crazy rain on this Tuesday! With some clearings all the same. But the atmosphere was good and the time passed quickly. And to finish, a little trip to the yellow baths. We recommend Vert Intense for their availability, their responsiveness (we were 15' late, we warned) so that Kévin knew that we were arriving. Without forgetting Teddy's humor which also made us laugh a lot. Thank you very much for these moments. And thank you for the various attentions during the hike from Kevin to help us in the more difficult passages and for putting on the masks 😊

Our excellent guide Kevin led us up to the summit of La Soufriere through the forest and via the areas reserved for accredited guides. He was very knowledgeable on all the flora and fauna as well as the history of the different eruptions and the volcano itself. If you're thinking that having a guide isn't worth the money, think again. With Kevin we could access all areas safely (gas masks provided and required). We were in a francophone group of 9 - very friendly, relaxed pace but you do need a reasonable level of fitness.

An absolutely amazing hike and experience. The guide Terry was a wealth of knowledge making the who experience so much more than you mr bog standard walk. From the knowledge of the rainforest leading up to the volcano to his vast amount of knowledge and history relating to the volcano and its eruptions there really wasn’t anything left unexplained. A fantastic day out made all the more special by such a great group leader who kept everyone safe and in good spirits throughout the challenging day.

We had a great morning with our guide, Kévin. My partner and I were part of a group of 8 people and Kévin adapted to the group, took regular breaks and took the time to explain to us the fauna, the flora, and the different explosions that take place at Soufrière .
I recommend 100%. You can go there with your eyes closed

I recommend this serious agency for the ascent of the volcano.
Already because the guide gives a lot of information on the history of this area, the different eruptions, the chronology, the flora….it’s fascinating.
But also because the guide allows you to get as close as possible to the activity and that’s an incredible experience. Access is not permitted without a guide.
The landscapes and views are splendid.
The ascent is not complicated but it requires effort and concentration on more technical parts.
You have to be used to hiking.
Downside, we had a passionate and interesting guide but who talked too much about himself, too often and too long with long breaks which cut into the effort. Damage.
In addition, the group was not homogeneous and the selected route was the easiest with fewer craters observed.
Despite everything, it remains a good experience.

Climbing La Soufrière was an unforgettable experience!
Our guide, Teddy, was incredibly knowledgeable and kept us safe on the steep climb and descent.
I will definitely visit this volcano with Vert Intense when I return to Guadeloupe.

Many thanks to VERT-INTENSE for this superb hike in La Soufrière. Going up this volcano with a Guide is absolutely nothing like doing it individually. Kevin, our Guide of the Day (state graduate), a true professional, was very pedagogical and informative. Hiking with a Guide gives you the privilege of being in a small group (12), having a wealth of information and getting close to the crater.
Thanks again to Kevin and the whole group that day for these beautiful moments shared. An incredible hike that will live in my memory!

With our guide Kévin, from Vert-Intense, everything was possible: the climb at our own pace, the discussions around the fauna and flora, the direct shots or on the phones, the moments of sweets to be able to continue the climb ( cereal bars), safety with masks installed near the dangerous zone (prohibited without a mask), and the assisted descent when vigilance for the difficulty was no longer there but fatigue. So welcome, the shared reward for all = the glass of punch in the parking lot! <>

I did the 5 hour hike with Kevin as my guide and I had a blast! Kevin is an outstanding storyteller and teaches us a lot about the fauna, flora and volcano during breaks during the ascent or descent. The panorama is breathtaking (I had very good weather) and the experience of being near the craters/chimneys is just exceptional. We feel privileged!
I recommend this activity! It is made for lovers of hiking, mountains and the great outdoors.

A magical experience as the discovery of this volcano of the Soufrière: a lunar setting, a majestic nature, the possibility to go as close as possible to the chimneys by being equipped with a mask, all explained in detail by Kévin, passionate and exciting Guide. Even the children found something to gain. It was not the time to admire the landscape of the summit, it will give us an excuse to come back. Thank you for this beautiful discovery!

Bonjour,
Dans les excursions que vous avez fait avec Vert intense, laquelle avez-vous préféré ?

Hi there,
Is the Ravine Chaude Canyoning trip suitable for first-time canyoners in their mid-40s? We're in okay shape and fairly active but don't speak any French.
Thanks!
Written January 4, 2017
Hi ! I think this activity is totally suitable for your age and experience ! And for the language, don't worry, they do speak enough English to make you feel comfortable !

We are going there next week. We have an 8 month infant but I do have a nice baby carrier. Do you think we will be able to do the hike with the baby? Do we need to book the tour in advance? Thanks

Hello TripAdvior Friends!
My friend and I are planning a trip to Gaudaloupe and were wondering if Vert Intense tours meet at their office or at the site of the trek? Specifically we are thinking about the volcano tour and are trying to figure out the most convenient place to stay. If anyone has other recommendations, we would love to hear them!
Thank you in advance!
Written July 28, 2015
Hello,
Thanks a lot for you interest.
Our office is just under the volcano.
So, when we give an appointment it is at our office : for the trek to the volcano and for the canyoning level 2.
You can see Les Bananes Vertes in Saint-Claude and staying.
Best regards .... Vert-intense's team !
