I highly recommend Creole T.S to take care of organizing your excursions in the Seychelles. - We stayed 6 days in Praslin and took all our excursions with the Creole Travel Services. We were truly delighted with all our excursions. Between the quality guide, a team always smiling, extraordinary days, everything was truly just incredible and very well organized. I would particularly like to thank Valerie from the Creole agency who is truly brilliant. Every day we receive a message from her to keep us informed of the next excursion or the news of the day. Top service! I recommend

Worth seeing - Very nice tour with a very nice tour guide. The path is not challenging, closed shoes are better than flip flops :-)! You can learn a lot about the nature of the Seyschellnen and the Coco de Mer! Fun and interesting!

Very interesting trip when you can see one of the most important places on Praslin and la Digue - Definitely, the trip was amazing, and we had the chance to see one of the most beautiful places from Praslin and La Digue. The lunch on Maison de l' Orangerie was incredible, but the most important piece of the tour was our guide, Collin. He was incredible, and believe me, if you have a bad day or a bad mood, definitely he will change it.i really recommend it

Only if you have nothing better to do - Did the Praslin and La Digne tour and honestly it didn't live up to the hype. Really not worth the money. Double nut tour location is beautiful but genuinely too long. I feel they're just making it up as they go along to stretch it out. La Digne is so boring. Coconut tour not worth your time. The beach so overcrowded. Ferrys from and back to Mahe are well organised and on time, but when I was sold my tickets, I was not informed about the different classes in the ferry's. Would have loved to sit in the air-conditioned area instead of the open air. No drinks or snacks available for sale on the ferry either. Lunch was buffet but truthfully not very tasty. Tour operators doing the best they can with what they have. Hotel pick up at 6am and drop off between 7pm and 8pm. Really too long of a day for what you end up doing in those hours.

Not worth the money! - This trip was definitely not worth £150 for the two of us, very disappointing. The transport didn’t turn up at the hotel, when we did get picked up I was expecting something a little more private and comfortable for the money. Unfortunately I don’t rate Valle De Mai, we didn’t see a lot other than Coco de Mer trees, a big spider and geckos that we see every day by the pool of the hotel. Don’t get me wrong, the young guide was very knowledgeable and lovely but it didn’t make up for lack of things to see. To top it off, we didn’t get the bottle of water as per the trip guidance.

The Praslin tour on February 24, 25 with Creole Travel Services was disappointing. Overall rating: 1/5 (Insufficient) - 1. Dishonest and intrusive advice from Aida. 2. Russian guides spoke only Russian, although the group was mostly not Russian. 3.The group tour was poorly organized: no clear information about the daily routine. 4. Fahrida tour guide spoke bad German and kept repeating the same information.
