Review of a private Mahé island tour with beaches, Victoria, rum, spice gardens, waterfalls, and flexible stops for $150.05.

“Booking reference: 1188683725 I wish to raise a serious complaint: I had booked a tour for our group of four. This was meant to be a special experience on a memorable trip to celebrate my 70th birthday and my husband’s and my 10th anniversary. I need to emphasize that in no way were we disappointed in our driver/guide. She was pleasant, knowledgeable and professional. The problem was that the vehicle for a 6 hour tour on a hot and humid day was too small for the four of us plus the driver. We are all tall individuals.

Did a beautiful short hike up the tea house; and went to Police Bay. Also had a great history lesson of Seychelles. Lunch was amazing at Marie Antoinette with Creole cuisine; and there are giant tortoises there too! I would highly recommend and do this tour again. I forgot an item in the van that I totally forgot about, and the driver took it to the hotel, and was contacted by the tour operator! They didn’t have to do this…”
