- 323liza0 contributionsA perfect way to start my Seychelles vacation.This hike was the perfect start to my Seychelles vacation! My local guide, Ryan, was amazing. He has vast knowledge not only about the flora and fauna of the country but he also shared information about the history and culture. The walk had ups, downs and flats - views down to the ocean and lots of beautiful trees, plants and animals.Written 21 November 2024
- J7141QBisabellap0 contributionsAll perfectAbsolutely recommended! Ryan is a great guide! He speaks perfect English, is funny and was completely flexible to all our needs and wishes for the tour. My husband and I had a great time in Mahé and tanks to him we learned many aspects of the life there that otherwise we would not have discovered. We would repeat a tour with Ryan without a doubt!Written 8 October 2024

- DariiaN0 contributionsDefinitely must try!Staying in Mahe in the resort does not count as if you visited Mahe, you know that. So considering this we decided to look for a tour or to rent a car to see around. But renting a car is definitely an option if you have a good knowledge already about history and culture of Seychelles, if it’s not your first time and you want to go to specific locations. But if you are new to this beautiful island, private tour is the must! To say that we were satisfy with our choice is to say nothing. It was indeed a perfect day, customised in accordance with our preferences, comfortable and adventurous. Firstly, Mahe has lots of hidden gems that worth to add to your memories about Seychelles, secondly, Ryan, is an excellent guide, intelligent and pleasant young gentleman, who has a lot to tell about Seychelles (not only Mahe) and show in Mahe. In addition, he will definitely find answers to all your questions. I will recommend this tour for everyone who is visiting Mahe as I did a very good research before, reviewing prices VS reviews. And the good thing we were not disappointed for a minute. Lastly, (if it matters for anyone) Ryan is good driver and has very comfortable car (with cold water 😊).Written 8 June 2023

In addition to knowledge, he speaks very good English, which made it easy to have a good dialogue through the day. Ryen is a very pleasant person to be with, with a good mood and good humour. We absolutely recommend everyone to take this trip if you want to see Mahé and learn a little about this fantastic island.Written 25 September 2022
- Gabyfk060 contributionsLovely tourRyan was great and very knowledgeable. He accommodated all my needs and I saw a lot in a short time. Unfortunately, the heat got to me and I started feeling unwell, so we had to cut the tour short. Still good, though!Written 10 June 2022
- Maria K0 contributionsFun Enriching Tour of the Beautiful Mahe IslandI had a wonderful island-wide day-tour of Mahe with Ryan in April 2022. As a solo female traveler it was great to have a f professional, courteous, reliable and expert guide who speaks excellent English and takes pride in providing the best customer service as possible. I highly recommend this tour, as he will custom tailor this island exploration experience to your particular interests and logistical needs.Written 16 April 2022
- 92svenjaj0 contributionsFun experience with an excellent tour guideRyan, the owner of Island Exploration Seychelles, is a really good guide to do a hike. What I liked most about him was that he gave me a lot of information about the nature and the land and on the other hand let me enjoy the peace of nature. His guidance on the trail and his driving are very safe. I really appreciated that he offered to cancel my tour - as it was raining for two days - and mentioned that the view would not be as good as usual, but still did the hike with me on my request. Thanks again for the great hiking tour!Written 23 December 2021

My wife and I really enjoyed our half-day private tour in Mahé with Ryan! He was great about getting back with us to answer any questions we had about the tour and was waiting (as promised) to pick us up once our cruise ship arrived in Mauritius. He’s a really nice guy and was also super flexible with anywhere we wanted to go or anything we wanted do around the island.
During our tour, we saw giant tortoises, went to beautiful beaches and historical spots around the island, did some souvenir shopping and learned a lot about Mahé and about Ryan. We were in such great hands and we will definitely reach out to him the next time we visit!
Thanks so much Ryan for spending the day with us! : )
