An island tour with Sheena or her brothers around Mahé is a real MUST. You can see how beautiful Mahé is and that the main island of the Seychelles doesn't have to hide from any of the other islands (Praslin & La Digue).
The sights / access points mentioned are options, not all can be seen in 5-6 hours, you can choose what you would like to see or tell us what exactly you would like to see. But no worries, In reality, you will see a lot on the Mahé island tour than we can describe. Culture, country, beaches, people & history.
There is always the possibility on the tour (optional) to buy drinks, have lunch, snacks & takeaways or visit a toilet or make an extra hour/hours with 25 € each hour.
We know the Seychelles, are very flexible with your wishes, are happy to go into everything you want to see and discover. We speak German (not perfect & not always guaranteed), English, French.
Our company is licensed & insured, certified by the tourism authority & licensed by the government.
Only you or your group/family take part. You decide in advance or on the day of the tour which activity you would like to see / do. We will adapt to this and give you all our insider tips. Please note that all the spots we describe below are just examples on our tour. There is a lot to discover in 5-6 hours, but you still have enough time during the tour to decide where we stop and wait or where we just want to show you and take pictures. Unfortunately we cannot visit all the places mentioned below due to time constraints. 5-6 hours is a long time in the car. You can therefore choose what you want to see and experience. However, if after 5-6 hours you still haven't seen and discovered enough of our beautiful paradise and you still feel energetic, you can extend the Mahé Island Tour at any time for €25 per hour.
