Pelican Safari Tour is a Deshaies–based excursion operator specializing in botanical road trips across Basse-Terre, Guadeloupe. Operating from Deshaies, the company runs full-day and half-day 4x4 experiences that explore northern and southern coasts, interior rainforests, rivers, waterfalls, and coastal viewpoints. Many itineraries use a Land Rover Defender or similar 4x4 vehicle to access off-road tracks and scenic routes. Tours often include opportunities to swim in rivers and waterfalls, visit coffee and cacao plantations, enjoy local flavors during picnics, and observe the island’s botanical diversity. Some full-day routes list optional visits to distilleries or natural hot springs, and several experiences are offered as private (Visite Privée) for tailored itineraries. Pelican Safari Tour’s program includes both half-day excursions from Deshaies and longer road trips that cross the north and south of Basse-Terre. All descriptions and itineraries are presented in third person; Pelican Safari Tour provides guided transfers from Deshaies and focuses on immersive nature, culture, and history during each excursion. The operator’s offerings are practical for travelers seeking botanical discovery, coastal scenery, and private or customizable 4x4 adventures on Basse-Terre.
