Get on a train and go to the banana paradise! You will not just eat these bright, yellow, sweet fruits, but grow them. The employees of Habitation Belfort banana plantation in Martinique tell you everything about this treat.

A small, almost toy white train takes you to the thicket of bananas. Its square is 65 hectares. Roads are paved throughout the farm, wagons with sun umbrellas are very comfortable. Here, you learn everything about bananas. It is a huge number of them.

You come to the main building – a very picturesque house in a Creole style. The farm staff with a smile on their faces tells you how and where bananas grow. They show how they are harvested, which bananas are culled, and why. The bravest can even help workers in the harvest. On the farm, you can easily become an expert in the bananas field, and a good agrarian. What tools to use, how to properly tear leaves, fertilize or not – you find answers on these questions after an excursion. 

So, bananas are taken, it is time for the next stages: washing, packing. And you follow what a banana on the tree comes to the supermarket in a package. When the dusk gathers, and the farm becomes illuminated with artificial lighting, the most pleasant moment of the excursion begins. It is tasting. All the tourists wait for it. It is so interesting to find out what can be prepared from an ordinary banana. I can say that you have never tried such dishes!

Creole dishes and some French cuisine amaze by its taste. Salty, fried, boiled, green, and yellow – all these are bananas! Unfortunately, the cooks do not reveal recipes, but in order not to be too offensive, they offer you a glass of banana wine.

It is an interesting and unusual tour! In addition to positive emotions and new taste experiences, you get useful skills.
