Stop 1
Beautiful & private island tour around Mahé, according to your wishes. 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.
