Maison Rimbaud and its gardens, in the heart of a historic Martinique estate. Nestled between the Pitons du Nord, Maison Rimbaud is a jewel of Martinique's heritage, passionately restored.

An exceptional natural setting: Source Agathe, forest trails, ferns, Balata lilies, bois d'Inde... exuberant nature with unforgettable fragrances. A site classified as an exceptional forest, with a view of the Pitons du Nord, a UNESCO World Heritage site. A site accredited by the Fondation du Patrimoine and the Bern Mission since 2019, a testament to a strong commitment to memory and transmission. A refined itinerary, orchestrated in two phases For a completely serene immersion, the group is divided in two: One begins with a guided tour of the Maison Rimbaud and its private garden, a jewel of authenticity where every room whispers history, restored with nobility and respect for the original materials. The other, in an intimate space, discovers the captivating destiny of Monsieur Emmanuel Rimbaud - an illustrious figure from Martinique, an enlightened businessman, a fighter against Admiral Robert's regime and a guardian of the Creole soul. At the halfway point, groups alternate for a seamless, complete experience. Extend this exceptional parenthesis with an optional refined tasting, celebrating the emblematic flavors of Martinique in an elegant setting.
