Must-see excursion to the seychelles - Very well organized hike, fairly expensive. Preliminary visit to Praslin to the park of giant palms and giant coconuts: environment with flavor sa Jurassic park, palms with leaves of 4 - 6 meters. Wilderness. So the great beach of excellent km. Following LA Digue : classic sightseeing tour at the cult beach.

Wonderful experience to Praslin and La Digue - This is a very nice trip to both Praslin and La Digue. You will experience the beaches, small villages, Coco de Mer stop in Praslin, watching the turtles in La Digue and enjoying the endless beauty of the nature. Biking in La Digue was very nice. The creole lunch was tasty.

Magnificent day - Getting up at 6 a.m. is quickly forgotten thanks to the Beauty of the sites visited. The crossing to Praslin and the Digue was a bit sporty given the slightly rough seas, but the boat is fast and quite stable. The team is very professional, well organized, friendly and very attentive. A must-see day during a stay in the Seychelles…!!!

Overall, they have done a great job, Thank you! - Pick-up from the hotel --> on time, payment in cash before the excursion in euros, quick and safe boat crossing, Mrs. Daniela showed us a lot about the Coco de Mer (Vallée de Mai) with very good technical explanations. The chosen beach on Praslin is the most beautiful beach we have seen in the Seychelles. Crossing to La Digue and subsequent lunch buffet, plentiful and good. The turtles on the tortoise farm, the Gaint Union Rock next to it and the final trip to Anse Source d'Argent, again with time for swimming, were uniquely worth seeing. The cold water served during the boat trips (2x) is more than just a pleasant touch. It was a great 5-star day for us. Ocean Blue Travel (Seychelles) would go again any time.

Day tour to Praslin & La digue - The day trip was nice, however there are only 3 negatives: 1- Too much time spent talking about the coco de mer 2- When we arrived to la digue and was dropped off for lunch, the tour guide guide with the previous group and we were left stranded at the restaurant for 30 minutes in the sun. The tour guide should have stayed with the last group of people and made sure everyone was transported to the next point of interest. 3- The entry ticket to the national park / beach in la digue should be arranged before the time to avoid unnecessary queuing and waiting as this caused a delay.

Great tour location but need improvement - I liked the fact we could visit two islands on the same day. The islands are just wonderful. About the trip I must highlight three negative aspects that probably Viator do not know: Viator does its best! But the operators are not always the best.. 1. The boat is very old, not in good condition and is quite dangerous; Something in the boat burned, in the middle of the journey, there was a burned smell, we had to be on the water about 15min (with the boat balancing or floating which made me sick and nervous but the worse is there wasn’t an extintor on the boat! If a fire would happen (and we were not far from that…), we would have to jump on the water (with probably sharks around and we a would all loose our phones and cameras! and risking our lives). Viator should definitely speak about this with the operator because there are many other good and safe boats. 2. The driver of the boat was extremely rude and abrupt; he cannot be in contact with the tourists because his abruptness is extremely shocking. 3. We were obliged to remove the shoes before entering the boat and the floor of the boat was dirty. Not difficult to get a micose there… 4. At Praslin, it was not given the time and the opportunity to visit the most famous and world heritage park Vallé de Mai. The fact that we have to pay the entrance, is fair and absolutely fine. The problem is to wish to go in, and no chance. This is important for Viator to know and improve by speaking with the operator or changing the operator. To change the boat and the driver of the boat, is really a MUST! Thank you for the attention
