We visited here and did the Love tour, contacting Ebony the night before to book for the following day and they were very responsive. If you have any interest in nature then I’d really recommend visiting Ebony. We loved it - it’s so clear that the guides are super passionate about everything they’re doing and have a lot of knowledge to share. The viewpoint literally took our breath away - it is incredible! We were so lucky to visit on a clear day. Only 2 bits of constructive feedback: • we had hoped to look around the shop following our visit, but unfortunately it was closed by the time we were finished with the tour (around 5:20pm) • we would love an opportunity to get updates on our tree after it’s been planted. Will the tag be kept on the tree / will it continue to be traceable? (Didn’t see tags on any other trees!) Appreciate that this may not be feasible, but even if Ebony offered some type of sponsorship opportunity where you could commit a fee each year to continue getting updates on your tree and contribute to the work Ebony forest is doing, we’d be interested :)

Very nice tour including watching endemic fauna and flora, planting an endangered tree and several stops at beautiful viewpoints. Enthousiastic guide who knows a lot about the environment.

Booked this experience and didn’t regret it. For me it was the highlight of all the trips we booked while on our honeymoon. Our guide Albey was considerate, friendly and knowledgeable. He gave us a real insight into the conservation and restoration work being done in the Ebony Forest as well as giving us the space and time to enjoy the experience as a couple. We saw endemic wildlife and if course learned a lot about ebony and how it is now protected. Planting our love tree was very special and took little time to do as everything was prepared for us. The jeep ride to the top of the mountain was great fun and the view don’t disappoint. We were offered hot snacks and a drink to enjoy with the view. Whilst there are a good number of visitors to this forest the plant a tree experience is possibly not so well known about, and I would really encourage couples to take this option when visiting. You really will be making a difference in continuing the work being done here by the team. Thank you x

Not sure what to expect with this tour but it was a great outing and morning adventure. We were the only ones on the tour, and our guide was fantastic. We started with the museum tour which they talked about the plants and animals, and then the ride up to the forest, which was pretty wild. It beats walking all that way for sure, then we did the forest tour and on the way back to the other side we did the tree planting. We were doing it with our toddler who was enjoying the whole thing, well, maybe not the fly in her eye, but for our case it wasn't a romantic outing. We then were brought up to the lookout which we didn't know about and had the most amazing view. From there we had our snack and drinks enjoying the platform to our selves and then finally taken back down the mountain again. I feel like this tour and adventure is one of the hidden charms of the island. If you are reading this review don't hesitate to book this trip.

Die Kommunikation mit dem Anbieter und mit/über Tripadvisor war unterirdisch schlecht, eigentlich wussten wir bis 1 Stunden vor dem Treffen nicht ob es stattfinden würden! Dann hat der Taxifahrer angerufen, diverse Mails wurden nicht beantwortet und der Stornobutton verweigert. Leute, so gehts gar nicht. Dann war es kein Pärchenevent sondern gemeinsam mit einer weiteren 4 Personen Familie. Warum wir nur einen Baum pflanzen durften aber für 2 Personen bezahlt haben ist mir schleierhaft. Es gab Verpflegung, einen Jeeptransfer, eine Führung mit Guide CHRIST (sehr kompetent auf englisch & französisch) beste Aussicht auf einem Berg, tolle Pflanzen und ein paar Tiere zu sehen. Insgesamt fand ich über 70 Euro plus Taxitransfer mit 130 Euro aus dem Norden viel zu teuer. Mhhhh, schadeeeee. Die Idee etwas Nachhaltiges zu lernen und zu hinterlassen war aber prima. Verbessert das Event doch einfach weiter!
