Interesting tour - I went to the Vallée de Mai with a friend to admire the famous Coco de Mer at its location. We booked a private tour in German. Dave told us a lot of interesting information about the largest nut and about the many other trees and palms that grow in this national park. A guided tour is highly recommended. Thank you Dave

Seychelles visit - Main attraction is coco demer. There is too much of climb and having hiking poles is a better idea. We had a visit to Seychelles in first week of April and stayed in Mahe and Praslin , 3 nights each. Also had a day tour to La Digue. Overall experience was good. However Travel triangle/Holiday box could have advised us to pre- book electric buggy at LaDigue in advance for those who do not cycle. All these buggies were pre-booked and we had to engage a taxi at an exorbitant price of SCR 2000, a clear loot. The services of Creole travel service was amazingly perfect however the other provider Jadore for St Anne Marine national park was not at all professional and had poor quality of service. They had mentioned wrong hotels against guests which caused confusion to the pick-up driver. Also they did not honour their own voucher and had to argue with them to show the Moyenne island which was included in the voucher sent by them. Maria from Jadore promised us on phone (after lot of arguments) that she will refund the ticket price but she never refunded despite repeated reminders. Jadore is not reliable at all. The Barbecue lunch at Cerf island was also unclean and not good for vegetarians. Only Rice and Dal (pulses) were provided to vegetarians, no equivalent BBQ veg. I wish St Anne park was also booked with Creole travel services rather than Jadore.

Disappointing visit and not recommended for elderly people - No consideration of my mother's disability for the visit Lots of steps and not just a few! A guide who doesn't wait for us And disappointed by the visit because we only talk about coconut butts, not birds or flowers We won't do it again!

The walk was really not enchanting! - The walk was really not enchanting! Arrival of several Créole Travel buses, We were "parked" at the entrance to this excursion, so very little space. We were then divided into groups according to the language spoken by the guide, which took quite a while. There were 24 of us for just one French speaking guide!!! Needless to say, in the narrow paths of the Mai Valley, the last visitors did not hear what the guide was saying to those in front. We had to hurry to take the photos to leave room for others because the guide was already leaving before everyone had passed. Very interesting visit, in a very pleasant setting, but totally ruined by too large a group!! We have the impression that Créole Travel only thinks about money and takes us for "cash cow" tourists without taking into account our well-being. To be banned with them! To do with a local guide on your own because it is very beautiful.
