  Mario was absolutely wonderful guide. Very knowledgable. My partner and I had a lot of fun on the tortoise island and even the beach. Must do activity if in Praslin. We were picked up from our hotel right on time and dropped off too. The only issue is BBQ which was a bit unhygienic as there were huge amount of flies and birds eating from the vessel which was uncovered.

• Mostly a good trip...

  Communication for the trip was great. The trip itself started off very well. Headed to our first island with the tortoises which was super fun (you can pet the tortoises and feed them!). The hike was pretty long and it was a hot day. A couple of people had to back out and be boated around. Our guide was informative and interesting. Lunch was good, but so many flies (maybe put the little fans on the tables to blow them away?). Then free time on the island. Did not get back on the boat till almost 1pm, which was a little bit of a drag. Would have liked to do some snorkeling in the am and then again after lunch. First snorkeling was in a bay and was GREAT. Calm waters, lots of things to see, super fun. No life jackets needed for comfortable swimmers. Second location was between two islands and this is where things went south. Lots of boats in the area, beautiful water, but unbeknownst to us, the current was VERY STRONG. Many of us in the water, some without life vests, and things got scary. Personally, I was pulled by the current so far away that I struggled to get back (and was overconfident from the first snorkeling location and did not have a life vest on). Things got scary for a couple of us who could not fight the current back and kept getting pulled out farther and farther. Eventually I made it to another boat and had to board with them and be boated back to my group. Another person in the group also had to ask for help from another boat. Everything turned out fine, but it was kind of frightening. I felt the crew should have been more aware of the current and able to advise the group about wearing life vests AND watching more closely to make sure that everyone was doing ok.

• Amazing day

  Amazing experience extremely well guided by Mario. From the beginning to the end , Mario was extremely focused in our safety and well being. The eco tour of curieuse was great . Mario is so knowledgeable and it was really so comprehensive. The lunch and snorkeling were amazing. The beach after lunch was great . Don't even hesitate to book. Go for it. Thank you Mario , Marcus and the captain for an amazing day. Marcos and Rose - Brazil
