Great Tour, awesome places - just perfect - We really wanted to do a day tour on Mahe and chose Sheena because the tour with her had very good reviews. And we were not disappointed! Sheena is such a warm person and we had a lot of fun. It was a great tour with many stops at sights and breathtaking places. All of our customer wishes were fulfilled and we can highly recommend the tour. If you want to visit Mahe, you'll do everything right with Sheena. We had great conversations and learned a lot of interesting facts. We can really recommend a tour with Sheena and would do a tour with her again at any time. Simply great! Big Thanks to Sheena :)

Super trip with many impressions - Had booked a private island tour today and are extremely enthusiastic. We booked with Jaques Travellers Tour and it was a wonderful experience with great impressions. We were picked up from the hotel at 9.45am and brought back at 5pm. We learned a lot of historical information and it was very varied. From various dreamlike beaches to rum tasting, jungle, giant turtles, oldest church, lookout, tea factory, Victoria with market was everything there.

Perfect island tour with Sheena – highly recommended! - After the great Rock Pool tour with Sheena, we decided to book another tour with her directly – and it was a great decision again! This time we opted for the Beautiful Island Tour on Mahé, a private tour lasting 5-6 hours. We were able to express our wishes in advance, and Sheena put together a perfect round trip from it. She added some highlights that really excited us. Theoretically, we could have rented a car ourselves, but since we were desperate to attend the Takamaka tasting, we thought it was better to do the full tour with a guide – and that was definitely the right choice! We visited Sauzier Waterfall, Mission Lodge, Takamaka Rum Distillery and beautiful Carana Beach, among others. Each stop was a real highlight, and Sheena made the tour an unforgettable experience again with lots of interesting facts about the country and people. Should we return to the Seychelles again, we would go again and again with Sheena. She simply has a talent for making tours personal and special. Fully recommended! After the amazing Rock Pool tour with Sheena, we decided to book another tour with her – and it was a fantastic decision! This time, we chose the Beautiful Island Tour around Mahé, a private 5-6 hour trip. We shared our preferences beforehand, and Sheena crafted the perfect itinerary for us. She also added a few extra stops that made the tour even better. We could have rented a car ourselves, but since we really wanted to join the Takamaka Rum Tasting, we thought it would be wiser to book a full guided tour – and that was definitely the right choice! We visited the Sauzier Waterfall, Mission Lodge, the Takamaka Rum Distillery, and the stunning Carana Beach. Every stop was a highlight, and once again, Sheena made the experience unforgettable, sharing so much knowledge about the island and its culture. If we ever come back to the Seychelles, we would always want to tour with Sheena again. She truly has a talent for making every trip personal and special. Highly recommended!

Unforgettable island tour - Just had a most amazing day on this tour! Our guide, Coreen, was absolutely fantastic. She went above and beyond to make sure we had a great time. When we hiked the Anse Major Trail and had a pickup spot planned, but the boat stopped at a different beach, Coreen called us right away and came to get us even though we had no phone service. She's super knowledgeable and passionate about the area, which made the day even more fun. We felt completely safe and comfortable with her. If you're looking for an unforgettable experience, I highly recommend this tour, especially with Coreen as your guide!

Memorable experience - Kevin was our guide. From the very beginning he was super friendly and kind. His knowledge about the area was excellent and he made us feel like we were living there as well. We did everything that was on the schedule and we were on time. Generally we were flexible and that’s why we never felt any pressure. We explored the all of the island give or take and we got to know about its history as well. Tried out the local cuisine, felt the artistic lifestyle and we explored the seaside as well of course. The time passed just like that, very pleasantly!

Nice tour - It's a nice tour. The Eden is nice only weekends the shops are closed which spoil your shopping plans. Scent making factory is nice if you want to buy perfumes. Overall is nice to go around the island.

A lovely day out! - We were taken to some small. really stunning beaches annd some good viewpoints. Enjoyed the wine-tasting at the Takamaka Distillery!! We were pursuaded to go to Mission Lodge as it's part of the history of the island, but there's not really a lot to see there and I think we could have easily missed that out and stayed with the theme of beaches! A lovely day out, though!

Beware when booking for four adults. - Booking reference: 1188683725 I wish to raise a serious complaint: I had booked a tour for our group of four. This was meant to be a special experience on a memorable trip to celebrate my 70th birthday and my husband’s and my 10th anniversary. I need to emphasize that in no way were we disappointed in our driver/guide. She was pleasant, knowledgeable and professional. The problem was that the vehicle for a 6 hour tour on a hot and humid day was too small for the four of us plus the driver. We are all tall individuals. Trying to squeeze three into the back seat was extremely uncomfortable. I expected that paying almost $800 would have guaranteed proper seating and comfort. If this arrangement had been made clear in advance, I would never have booked this tour. While I will give the driver/guide my endorsement, I feel very betrayed by Viator and will no longer recommend them nor use their services again. Yours truly, Valerie Heesen
