Mangofil

Has anyone been to Mangofil? I have 3 kids ages 12, 10, and 10 (boys and one tough girl). This place sounded interesting but I would like to hear about it from anyone who has been there with kids.

Anyone with first-hand experience with Mangofil???...we too would really appreciate hearing from anyone who's been here. How's the staff's English?

 

Here's what I've read about Mangofil...

 

Mangofil, located in Trois-Ilets -- also about a 40-minute cab ride from the port (about $65). A much cheaper way to go is to take the ferry, at $7 for adults and $4 for kids, from Fort-de-France to Trois-Ilets Marina. Taxis are available for a nominal cost at the marina to drop passengers at Mangofil. Arrange a time for the taxi driver to pick you up again to take you back to the ship via ferry. With the help of trained staff, guests at Mangofil can swing on ropes, climb on replicated "monkey bridges", and zip line through the rainforest! There are three levels of activity called "Mangokid" for children; "Big Mango" for adults; and "Mangokaid" with the most physical challenges. Mangofil entry costs about $24 per person.

Mangofil is an adventure trail in trees perfect for kids. It's in Trois-Ilets. Activities are from 1h00 to 1h30min.

So if you want you can visit Chateau Gaillard or the Pottery Village which are close to Mangofil. The best is to rent a car or to cross the bay and take a cab in Pointe du Bout.;)
