Things to do in Victoria, Mahe Island: The Best Sightseeing Tours

June 1, 2021 Frederic Celentano

A day on foot is ample time to see Victoria, one of the smallest capitals in the world. Located on Mahe, one of the Seychelles' 115 granite and coral islands, Victoria is the republic's business and cultural hub. At its center sits the Victoria Clocktower, a national monument reminiscent of London's "Big Ben" that has kept ticking since 1903, unaffected by the modern glass and concrete development around it. Visit the local art galleries and craft markets to soak up the city's friendly charm.

We were three couples visiting Mahe Island for the day while our cruise ship was there. Our tour guide was Jude and he picked us up and dropped us off at the port. What I really like about him is that he has perfect English, was very informative and was very flexible. He also has a great sense of humor. He also gave us a clear picture of life in the Seychelles and was willing to deviate from his standard tour in any way we wished. He found us a great seafood restaurant on the water for lunch. He also understood the need for timelines as we needed to get back to the ship on time!

The tour of the island with Ryan was excellent. I really recommend it. Ryan explains very well all the particularities of Mahé. He took us almost to all the beaches and spots in Mahé. Ryan proposes to adapt the program according to your preferences. Ryan is very kind and passionated about his work. The van is really comfortable too. The tour of the island with Ryan is a must if you want to discover Mahé.

The day after we visited different islands - went for munch on La Digue, stopped for snorkeling and had an amazing time! Thank you JP for taking us back safe! The whole trip was just great!

An island tour around Mahé is a real MUST. Only then you can see how beautiful Mahé is and that the (main) island of the Seychelles does not have to hide from any other island (Praslin or La Digue). The mentioned sights / arrival points are only a few options. In reality you will see a lot more on this island tour than we can describe. We know the Seychelles as Seychellois, we are very flexible with your wishes, we are happy to deal with everything you want to see and discover. We speak German, English and French.

It has to be one....., no it has to be THE favourite spot of mine on the island. The trip to rock pool is amazing and a must do for all visitors coming to Seychelles. The south of Mahé is full of surprises and Islandtour Seychelles makes it an incredible experience. The trail is accessible only by foot but it is definitely worth the while if you love nature! I highly recommend it as well as booking via Islandtour Seychelles! Thank me later! You will not regret it!

Not everyone who has traveled to the Seychelles has had the opportunity to visit the rock pool. It's not that easy to find, but we'll take you there. The rock pool is unique and the hike there is easy to walk. It is a pleasant tour because you will see some of Mahé on the way there and it can ideally be seen as a half-day tour. You have the possibility to eat something later in the region, the whole thing is really very relaxed, also suitable for children from 6 years. Incidentally, our company is licensed and insured, certified by the tourism authority and licensed by the government.

We have certainly done this tour to Anse Major over 1000 times and we are still fascinated by this tour to this day. The tour to Anse Major is easy to do, even in bad weather. You have a great view of the northwest of Mahé. The Anse Major is not accessible by car, so you have to make a little effort, but will be rewarded exceptionally.
