Dear Ron_S Greetings from CREOLE Travel Services. Thank you for notifying us of this experience, it is absolutely not something we condone from our staff members or hired suppliers. We are investigating this matter as a top concern, and would greatly appreciate if you could send as a complete report of the experience on myexperience@creoletravelservices.com. We sincerely regret that this was your takeaway from what is one of the most magical, natural wonders of the Seychelles islands. We hope that should you return, you give it another chance to experience. Thank you once again and we look forward to hearing from you. Regards Team Creole

Vallée de Mai et Plage de Anse Lazio

Laurie_P, Nov 2022

Nous avons fait la journée complète Vallée de Mai et la plage de Anse Lazio avec le restaurant qui était excellent. La vallée, un guide au top qui nous a fait découvrir pleins d’arbres de plante de fruits sans oublier les cocos de mer l’emblème de l’île. Super journée. Je recommande a 100%
