About this experience

Victoria City Tour | Mahé, Seychelles | Private walking tour | is a private guided walk working out of Mahé. It holds 3.9 out of 5 from 8 traveller reviews.

Set aside about 3h. with a guide who knows where the views and the wildlife actually are. We recommend it to anyone happy to earn the view.

Why Vallée de Mai matters

The Vallée de Mai on Praslin is one of only two places on earth where the coco de mer palm grows wild, and the nut it drops is the largest and heaviest seed in the entire plant kingdom. The reserve is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and the last refuge of the rare Seychelles black parrot. Walking its shaded trails feels like stepping into a primeval forest, which is exactly why it is worth booking with a guide who can point out what an untrained eye walks straight past.

The giant tortoises of Curieuse

Curieuse is one of the few places where Aldabra giant tortoises roam free rather than behind a fence. These animals can live well past a century and weigh over 250 kilograms, and meeting them at eye level on their own ground is the kind of encounter people remember for years. The island also carries a quieter history as a former leper colony, and its mangrove boardwalk is among the best preserved in the granitic Seychelles.

Discovering Victoria

Victoria is one of the smallest capital cities in the world and easy to read in half a day. Its silver clocktower is a scaled copy of the one outside London's Victoria Station, the covered Sir Selwyn-Clarke market still sells fish and spices to locals each morning, and the brightly painted Hindu temple is a reminder of how mixed Seychellois culture really is. A walking tour ties these threads together better than wandering alone.

In the operator’s words: “A guided city tour through Victoria on Mahé, one of the smallest capital cities in the world.”
