  Amazing experience exploring La Digue and surrounding islands. BBQ lunch and tortoise sanctuary were fantastic and a big hit with our sons. Snorkeling was really fun and being able to see Georgette and Lazio beaches on Praslin was beautiful- bluest water we’ve ever seen. On our tour, we saw dolphins, reef sharks, tortoises, and an assortment of fish. Ted, the captain and his first mate were FANTASTIC and so kind to our sons. Ted even taught our oldest how to drive the boat. An exciting and relaxing experience!

• Amazing experience, highly recommend!

  Great experience! We actually booked our trip for the same morning that we arrived to Mahe after a 30-hour trip from California. For obvious reasons I was a bit nervous, but it couldn't have gone better. Since this is a private tour, we were able to plan the departure time around our flight arrival time (I think usually the tour starts at 8:30 but we started closer to 10am). Arno arranged a taxi to pick us up for the airport and it was right on time. When the got to the dock, the guys were waiting for us and ready to go. The other great part is that we didn't have time to drop our luggage off at our hotel beforehand, but they were able to stow it on the boat for us during the trip (We just had one large 50lb bag and a smaller carryon). The trip itself was fantastic. The guys were really chill, friendly, and accommodating. There were cold drinks and we played our music on the boat sound system with bluetooth. The boat was nice, clean, and well maintained. I'm not a boat person so not sure how big it was, but I'm going to guesstimate about 25 feet based on google photos. There was enough room in the seating area for at least 6 people to sit comfortably and there was a big shade top over the front half of the boat. Since the islands are not that close (took us like 45min - 1 hr to go from Mahe to La Digue) and you're on open water, those parts of the ride were pretty choppy, so don't recommend if you get seasick or that bothers you. But the guys did a great job and we felt safe and comfortable the whole time. We were also impressed that they kept us right on schedule - we arrived back at the dock exactly on time. We were doing most of our stay on Desroches, so this was our opportunity to see the other islands beforehand and we really enjoyed it. Otherwise we wouldn't have had the chance to see Curieuse, La Digue, St Pierre, and all the other islands that we passed by (like Fregate in the distance, and some private islands). We saw some dolphins near La Digue and a manta ray while snorkeling by St. Pierre. La Digue was really cute and quaint. The guys dropped us off on the dock and helped us get bikes, then just told us to meet them back at a certain time. We had a quick bite and were easily able to find our way to Anse Source d'Argent, which I felt we couldn't miss out on. It was maybe a 10-15 minute bike ride. The stop on Curiuese was also great - they have some really huge giant tortoises (bigger than the ones on Desroches), and the barbecue lunch was really good. We had enough time to walk part of the boardwalk - but not the full walk since it's over an hour apparently. If you're looking to get an efficient tour of the other islands, I'd highly recommend these guys. They delivered the exact experience we were looking for and we really appreciated that they were on time, on schedule, and able to accommodate our needs. Thank you so much!

  The best trip we have ever been on - a bucket list experience! And the perfect surprise anniversary trip for my husband combining all of his favourite activities; cycling, exploring, snorkelling, unique animal & fish encounters, local cuisine, beaches & culture. The skipper & assistant we’re very friendly & helpful and Arno the owner was welcoming & quick to respond to any queries. La Digue is easily explored in half a day & Anse Source d’Argent is paradise! The tortoises on Curieuse are very friendly & the clear blue waters at St Pierre are perfect for snorkelling. You also stop at Anse Lazio to feed the beautiful batfish & zebra fish and to gain at sneak peek at Prasalin. A once in a lifetime experience which is well worth the price!

  If you do not have the time to waste in transportation from one island to another, and do not want to spend days in hopping on and off ferries to see all beauties around Mahé, this is a must! The places are magical, we enjoyed the views and tours very much, barbecue lunch is delicious and giant tortoises are a-do-ra-ble!!! We can only thank the wonderful crew and Arno for being so carrying and putting effort to make our memories from Seychelles! They were even booked when we initially approached them, but they turned their schedule around to make the tour possible before we leave Seychelles.
