The "Maison de l'Estuaire" organises guided tours of the nature reserve of the Seine estuary in summertime.
"Discover the different kinds of natural habitats of the natural reserve and let yourself be guided around one of the biggest reed garden in France and up to the swamps where you will be able to observe and listen to the fauna that inhabits this environment. And to finish, a walk in the wet meadows will allow you to meet up with our Camargue horses, in charge of the grazing."
