Seychelles
Across the southern expanses of the Indian Ocean, 115 paradise islands are scattered, the largest being the island of Mahe. It is home to the Seychelles capital of Victoria, home to most of the local population.
On our journey through the Seychelles we are staying on three islands, the most recognizable of which are the white sandy beaches surrounded by palm trees and sprinkled with granite boulders. All this almost kitschy beauty is surrounded by the crystal clear blue sea, which is full of underwater life.
We stay on Mahe Island for one night, but enough time to jump into the sea for the first time during our vacation. We will also embark on an island tour, where on the way we stop for a tour of a local rum distillery with the possibility of tasting. We will also climb to the lookout point and make the first beautiful photos.
The next day we will have a one-hour speedboat ride that will take us to the slowest island, la Digue. Slow because the pace of life there is adjusted to the speed of the rider. There are hardly any cars, and everything is done casually. To get into the island pace, we will get to know him for four days with the help of rented bikes and our own feet :-). Taxis or steerships may be used in certain areas. La Digue Island is home to the famous Anse Source D’argent Beach. Looking for adventure we will get to know the beach from the kayak. The island is home to many turtles and endemic birds that we can observe while walking through Union Estate Park.
We will enjoy five unforgettable and fresh sea air on the second largest island, Praslin, which will serve as a starting point for various optional excursions. There is a unique double Coco de mer on the island that has curves of a female body and has matured for over 30 years. Most palm trees are located in the Valle de mer National Park and are under UNESCO protection. Praslin is also known for its exceptional beaches such as Anse Lazio, Anse Georgette and Cote d’Ore. Snorkeling is possible on all beaches, which depends on the tide. Unless otherwise, we will look underwater for a day trip when we sail to Curoieuse by boat, see the giant turtles there, and then sail to the smaller St. Pierre Island, where are many beautiful snorkeling sites around.
A true paradise on earth for those who are close to tropical seaside destinations but are not only off to the beach but also enjoy an active day trip.
The trip is also suitable for children with parents with some adventurous spirit 🙂

Abuot country
Experts believe that the Arabs and Maldivian traders traveling to the coasts of Africa were the first to enter Seychelles. The first European to arrive there was Vasco da Gama in 1502. Over time, control of the island was taken over by the French, in 1756. The Seychelles were named after the French Minister of Finance, Jean Moreau. Between 1794 and 1810 the British came to power negotiating the islands. The island gained independence on June 29, 1976.
It is a true melting pot of cultures and one of the few countries where there is no interracial or interfaith tension, despite the ancestors of the natives coming from different parts of the world. The largest ethnic community is the descendants of the French, Africans, Indians and Chinese. Together with French-based Seychellesian Creole, the official languages are English and French. According to the 2002 census, most people are Christians, most are Catholics, some are Anglicans, Hindus and Muslims. Interestingly, Seychelles society is in principle matriarchal: mothers are dominant in the household, controlling finances and caring for children.
Visa and vaccination
Slovenian citizens do not need a visa. Seychelles is an exotic destination and basic hygiene measures are recommended everywhere, which means frequent hand washing, bottled water and caution when consuming food such as fresh fruits and vegetables.

1. Kako se ti je zdelo potovanje nasploh? Potovanje je bilo super, dinamično, vedno je kaj dogajalo. Organizacija in vodenje dobra, super je bilo, ker je bila skupina majhna.
2. Kaj ti je ostalo v najlepšem spominu? Z ladjico do želv, trekingi, čudovite plaže, stik z domačini, lepe nastanitve, snorkljanje – skratka odklop. Škoda, ker valovito morje ni omogočalo izpeljave vseh planov – narava pač 🙂
3. Je bilo vodenje v redu, kako bi ocenil/a Andreja? Dober vodič, tudi v stresnih trenutkih ni delal panike. Mogoče bi samo dnevne plane toliko prilagodil, da bi vnaprej povedal, ko je potrebno hrano vzeti s seboj ali prilagodil postanke v take away/trgovini tudi sredi dneva.
4. Zakaj si se odločil oz. odločila za to potovanje? Želeli smo jih obiskati, radi imamo kombinacijo popotniškega potovanja, kjer se vsak dan kaj dogaja in občasno eno ali pol-dnevnega odklopa na plaži. 1x letno si nekako privoščimo potovanje kam bolj daleč v takšnem stilu.
5. Kam bi v prihodnje najraje potoval/-a? Daljša: Tajska, Filipini, Indonezija, Peru, Japonska, Kenija/Tanzanija/Namibija, narodni parki ZDA, še kaj Karibov ali Srednje Amerike. Drugače pa Jordanija, Maroko, Islandija, Normandija
6. Bi to potovanje priporočal/-a še komu? Seveda
Dajana
Sejšeli čudoviti, skupina super in Andrej mega.
Nika
Pozdravljen,
midva sva se imela na potovanju zelo lepo
Težko bi opredelila kaj nama je bilo najbolj všeč.Bili smo super skupina. Čudovit vodič. Imeli smo srečo z vremenom. Tako, da je potovanje potekalo brezhibno.
Andrej je super vodič. Svoje delo opravlja odlično.Je sproščen in povezovalen. Potovati z njim je bilo prijetno.
Za to potovanje sva se odločila, ker sem v septembru praznovala 50.rojstni dan in odločitev je bila prava.
Najina naslednja želja je Oman.
Potovanje bi priporočala ljudem, ki radi raziskujejo in spoznavajo nove dežele skratka vsem tistim, ki radi aktivno preživljajo dopust.
Hvala vam in še posebej Andreju za čudovito potovanje.
Lp Violeta in Edo
