About Me
I am a Seychellois (born and live in the Seychelles) I have studied in the UK up to my Masters degree and I now run Holidays Seychelles.
There are so much misconception and perceptions about the Seychelles, mainly through agents that has never been to the Seychelles.
The worst case scenario is that they charge the visitor an arm and a leg. Most of the cases are that the visitors pay 5 star prices for a 3 star accommodation. But this only creates dissatisfied customers and visitors do not return, meaning everybody loses out.
Tripbod gives the visitor the chance to talk to someone local about all the right places and things to do. I think that this can reverse the trend.
The Seychelles do not need introductions, being born in the Seychelles, having lived in the Seychelles, visited most of the islands, dived a few times, climbed the mountain nature trails a few times....
I could write a book!
Some unique local experiences I can help you plan are:
- south mahe island trip (6hours) including visit to mission lodge, (the first free slave establishment) in the morne seychelles national park
- visit to valle de mai (world heritage site) on praslin island - 1000's of years old tropical rain forest in its natural beauty, with 11 endemic palms to seychelles including the famous coco de mer - black parrot
- 3 Islands visit, - iles coco, sister and curieuse, where you swim with turtles, feed fishes, visit historic sites and have a beach barbeque.
- Cousin, world bird sanctuary, managed by bird live international, see endemic birds of seychelles.
- Traditional fishing at Iles des Palmes hotel where fresh fish is shared with guests.
- St Anne Marine Park. The Seychelles first marine park visit on a glass-bottom boat trip so guests can enjoy the beauty of the ocean floor and the varieties of different fish
Ask me about these experiences and anything else about the the Seychelles - I'd love to help you plan your trip here!
