The tour of the island with Ryan was excellent. I really recommend it. Ryan explains very well all the particularities of Mahé. He took us almost to all the beaches and spots in Mahé. Ryan proposes to adapt the program according to your preferences. Ryan is very kind and passionated about his work. The van is really comfortable too. The tour of the island with Ryan is a must if you want to discover Mahé.

We were three couples visiting Mahe Island for the day while our cruise ship was there. Our tour guide was Jude and he picked us up and dropped us off at the port. What I really like about him is that he has perfect English, was very informative and was very flexible. He also has a great sense of humor. He also gave us a clear picture of life in the Seychelles and was willing to deviate from his standard tour in any way we wished. He found us a great seafood restaurant on the water for lunch. He also understood the need for timelines as we needed to get back to the ship on time!
