Guides will explain about the different crops, how they are grown, harvested and used.

This tour also goes into the Syndicate Rainforest which is located at the foothills of Morne Diablotin the island’s highest mountain. The Syndicate Rainforest represents some of the finest Oceanic Rainforest on the island and maybe the world. There are well kept and maintained trails, on which even elderly people will not find it difficult to walk.
