Cabin Cruise on board a catamaran in the Seychelles

This trip was fun, informative, and relaxing. Our skipper was great and managed the boat well. The chef on board was a real chef and made amazing food. The boat was clean and provided towels and sheets. Overall a wonderful experience as a solo traveler.

The boat was in a good shape and well located in the marina. The crew was very nice and the food on the boat was very delicious. The captain gave good briefings about the trip and also some flexibility with the stay on the islands. Overall a perfect trip to relax on a big boat, do some sailing, see great beaches but also local environment like turtles, bird parks, coco de mer woods and many other interesting items.

Very welcoming crew. We were lucky to be with some nice guests, and even though we initially chose a catamaran with a maximum of 6 cabins, in the end, they put us on one with 12 (terrified because 24 people on board is quite a lot), it turned out fine anyway (at most we were 17 and halfway through the cruise we were even just 9).
The nights were hot because they turned off the generator with the air conditioning.
Very good food.
Interesting and beautiful islands, as well as great spots for snorkeling.

The crew was very friendly, especially the captain and the young man, the food was very good, and the tour was fantastic. I would love to do it again!

The best way to enjoy a vacation in Seychelles is undoubtedly on a yacht.
Yacht BACCHUS. The captain is a true professional!!
Special respect to the chef Deni, who prepared simply amazing dishes for us every day. Thank you to these guys for a wonderful vacation.

Quick adaptation on the yacht, getting to know the cabin, the skipper, the cook, and the other participants of the cruise, and practically off we go. The first anchor near an interesting island and of course dinner at the stern of the catamaran in beautiful natural surroundings with a view of the whole Mahé and the highest mountain range in the area. Nearby, other yachts that set off for a multi-day cruise around the same time. Swimming in the ocean without restrictions, practically at any time of day and night. In the morning, of course, a swim, breakfast, and then swimming to the nearest beach to relax under the palms. Then back to the yacht, anchor up, sails on the mast, and off we go towards Praslin. During the cruise, stops in beautiful bays, snorkeling on the reefs, exploring beautiful deserted islets in the ocean with lush vegetation and interesting birds. Near the larger islands, there are optional excursions (on foot, by bike, or rented transport) to explore picturesque beaches and parks and coexist with really large turtles. Practically everything you could wish for in paradise. As for meals on the yacht, for a few bucks you get really great food and drinks all day long. Regional, European, and Asian cuisine that is definitely not to be overdone. If someone enjoys tasting, they can also taste various drinks and alcohols all day long, but I do not recommend it because then you won't explore anything. I was on an 8-day cruise at the beginning of February, and supposedly this is the rainiest and worst weather in the Seychelles. Believe me, if this is bad weather, you would want to have it all year round in Poland. For 6 days, beautiful sunshine, a blue ocean, and everyone eagerly looking for a little cloud. Only on the 7th day did it lightly drizzle in the afternoon, much to everyone's delight. I think this is the best time for a vacation in this part of the world. Practically during one cruise, everyone will find something for themselves: one sailing, another snorkeling, a third beach, swimming, and excursions. Interestingly, all the islands are mountainous, but here a small peak, e.g., 350 m, impresses like at least 700 m at home because it is seen directly from sea level ;) The highest peak on Mahé, 900 m, impresses like Giewont in the Tatras, all in the scenery of tall coconut palms, sandy beaches, and a blue ocean. In a word, I recommend it. Seychelles checked off, and now it's time for the Pacific. Interestingly, it was a French colony and later British. Although the British were here longer than the French, you will communicate better in French than in English. However, if you know English, you will manage without any problems. You can really have a great adventure sailing around the Seychelles for a relatively reasonable amount.

For us, the destination and the crew were perfect! We did everything included in the itinerary, but we adjusted it according to the weather to make the most of it, and the cook was top-notch!

The only issue was the communication between the individual travel providers and the company on-site; everyone had different information, which was confusing at first. You can only pay in euros or Seychellois rupees there, although we were told in advance that dollars were accepted.

However, it was a dream paradise for us, and we would book it again anytime.

We traveled for the first time with VPM. The yacht was in good technical condition, and the captain was competent. Special praise goes to the chef, who provided us with tasty and diverse cuisine throughout the entire cruise. The route and program of the cruise were very interesting, and this is certainly a big advantage of this type of cabin cruises - we saw a lot thanks to the crew's commitment.
A downside is definitely the drinks package we purchased. It is not worth buying these packages; it's better to buy drinks on-site or bring your own on board.

Very good organization of the cruise, great meals, plenty of opportunities for snorkeling, as well as the chance to visit the main attractions on the islands visited. I recommend it, it's worth it.

Wir hatten eine wunderschöne 8 Tagesreise zu verschiedenen Inseln mit Ausflügen und vielen Schnorchelmöglichkeiten. Alles war bestens und perfekt. Ron und Donavan waren sehr bemüht. Drinks und Essen waren sehr, sehr lecker mit täglich fangfrischen Fischen und Takamaka Cocktails. Es war sehr heiss und schwül und einige Nächte haben wir an Deck geschlafen, was mir sehr gut gefallen hat. Wir hatten das große Glück, dass wir auf den 6 Kabinen Katamaran Eye Candy, einem sehr schönen und modernen Boot, umgebucht wurden. Wir würden diesen Trip sofort wieder machen.

Super nice organization and reception by Linda at the marina. They were very attentive to my histamine intolerance and checked again to ensure they could take good care of me. As a solo traveler, I was very lucky with my fellow travelers, and the crew with Ron and Steve was simply a dream. Ron as the skipper was very flexible and eager to show us sights off the planned route. He always had information on hand about various things or would inquire for us. He was also happy to accommodate our wish to sail along. Steve as the cook was a dream. During my subsequent stay on land, I often missed his varied, super fresh, and easily digestible cuisine. Among other things, we caught fresh fish on board, and Steve transformed them into wonderful, varied dishes. A dream! The program was structured in such a way that we saw 10 islands in 7 days. It was never boring and always had the right balance between relaxation and activity. I would sail with both of them again anytime and can only recommend them!

Beautiful way to visit the Seychelles. I think I made the best choice. While sailing, we saw dolphins, sea turtles, and unspoiled islands where we stopped to go snorkeling (equipment on board). Breakfast, lunch, and dinner were excellent. The staff was super welcoming and helpful. New friendships were made. The only downside is the lack of air conditioning. There was a small fan, but the noise made it hard to sleep. In my room, it was not possible to open the windows; only a porthole, so there was no airflow. I recommend that those arriving early like me leave their luggage at the airport or Eden Island, take a taxi, and go for a walk in Victoria or to some beach because they don't board before 3 PM... we actually boarded at 5 PM. I would do it a thousand times again. Highly recommended.

Wonderful vacation, nothing to complain about. The crew was very helpful and well-prepared. The destination and the tour were very beautiful. Paradise beaches and corners of paradise with warm, crystal-clear water. Not recommended for snorkeling.
