We had 10 days of wonderful vacation aboard the catamaran. To start, we were very well welcomed at the agency's office. The explanations regarding our cruise were very precise and clear. The cruise went very well. We were three couples, so six instead of the maximum of 12 people. We had plenty of space. The crew, Clint and Terrence, were very nice, efficient, gave good advice, and spoke French. We had a nearly customized cruise while respecting the itinerary. Over the ten days, we had two days of passing rain. The boat cruise is truly the best way to visit the islands of Seychelles. We completed our stay with 4 days at a hotel on Mahé. A big thank you to Marie for her wise advice and for the organization. Top-notch, just like last time for the Grenadines islands.

I was disappointed upon arrival at the airport not to find my transfer, but the information office was helpful in contacting it. The charter office and catamaran were perfect. Super trip.

We had a great stay. The boat and our cabin were very good, the skipper was very good, and the cook was incredible. Fresh, varied products that were always very well prepared. A good atmosphere, a beautiful itinerary. The ideal destination for this type of stay. We recommend it.

Ideal for a romantic getaway to visit postcard-worthy islands with other couples who were all French or Swiss. The upper cabin was perfect, excellent comfort! A huge plus for Elvis, our cook, who prepared dishes (morning, noon, and night) all week of very high quality!!! Bravo!!! The captain was very kind and attentive to our wishes. We would have just liked to sail more than to be on the engine. In short, perfect cruise that I highly recommend!

Prepared for many months, our cruise went flawlessly. A warm welcome in Mahé (booking a rental car for our return at a very good price through the provider), a very beautiful sailing boat in excellent condition, a reassuring and qualified skipper (Ronny), always attentive to his guests, an exceptional cook (Octave) always waiting for our feedback after spending hours in the kitchen for us, magical sites, rich and colorful underwater scenery. Our stay is a perfect success.
Perhaps a clearer billing system (pro forma invoice) from GlobeSailor would be welcome. But nothing is hidden.
Also, consider budgeting between 5 and 15% of your cruise cost based on your level of satisfaction for the crew's tip.
However, be cautious of the somewhat marketing title of this cruise "8 days 7 nights"; in fact, it represents more like 6.5 days and 7 nights on the boat (from Monday 1 PM to the following Monday 8 AM), knowing that the last night is at the quay "return" in Mahé for disembarkation on Monday morning at 8 AM.
Of course, this beautiful success also depends on the quality of our fellow crew members of the week (Germans, Swiss, French) whom we thank here for their smiles, kindness, and the daily joy of sharing this wonderful experience together.

It is the first time we traveled with other people and especially it was the first time on a sailing boat. We are excited about the choice, we firmly believe that it is the best way to visit the Seychelles: every day a different place with the comfort of arriving at the spot guided by experienced people who know every corner of the islands. Highly recommended! We would gladly have other experiences around the world with this formula!

Everything was perfect on board. Our chef Mickael did not hesitate to spoil us. Every day, 5 different dishes for lunch and dinner. Exceptional. Thanks to him. As for our Captain Claude, he did not hesitate to give us his advice, always relevant for the visits on land. A big thank you to them for this magnificent trip. Sylvie

Travel date: 03.-13.02.2025
Travel area: Seychelles Islands
Boat: Lagoon 620, built in 2019


Quick and well-organized check-in
We were able to store one of our suitcases in the office.
Only 3 of the 6 cabins were occupied. This gave us a luxurious amount of space on the catamaran.
Nice fellow sailors. We had a lot of fun together on the sailing trip.
The skipper was very professional, responsible, committed, very friendly, open, and informative.
The cook is also a very good, motivated, and professional chef. He responded very well to our wishes. Whenever possible, the fishing lines were cast, which almost always led to success. The fish was immediately filleted and processed. The cook prepared excellent bonito carpaccio several times. It doesn't get fresher than that. The food was varied and plentiful despite a lot of fish. Generally, meat is expensive, limited in availability, and of restricted quality in the Seychelles; while fish is good, cheap, and fresh available everywhere.
For breakfast, there were homemade baked goods. When the oven didn't work once, the skipper and the cook took the dinghy with the baking tray to the neighboring boat and baked there.
The catamaran was well-maintained, clean, and in a condition appropriate for its age. The skipper always made a great effort to resolve problems immediately, as far as possible with onboard resources.
During our bike trip on La Digue, our catamaran was thoroughly cleaned and maintained at the base in Praslin.
When the generator and thus the air conditioning are turned off at night, it quickly becomes stuffy in the cabin. To remedy this, fans are available, powered by the onboard battery and inverter. You also have 3 windows that can be opened. However, these must be closed quickly when it starts to rain to avoid water damage in the cabin.
Fellow travelers from the front part of the boat complained of a slight sewage smell from the air conditioning. This seems to be a general problem with this type of boat and is structurally conditioned. In our cabin, almost all drawers were stuck. A technician notices many things on the boat that could have been better solved structurally.
Overall, it was a dreamlike sailing trip that we will fondly remember for a long time.
Thanks again to the crew, who contributed a lot to this beautiful journey.

Great relaxing cruise through the various islands of Seychelles with lots of swimming and various interesting land excursions.
Claude was a very professional Captain and Terence a tremendous cook preparing delicious meals in great variety using different cuisines.
Catamaran comfortable other than the air conditioning being off during night time (there must be another solution to this).
Certain discrepancies between the written information provided pre-cruise and the actual situation on board or site but working mainly in favour for customers.
Would gladly consider to do a similar cruise again maybe in another part of the world.

We had a magical vacation. The catamaran was new and of excellent quality, the chef prepared different delicious dishes and desserts every day, taking into account that there were, besides regular people, a vegan, someone with a gluten allergy, and another with a lactose allergy. Everyone found the food very tasty. The captain showed us around, told us stories, and was very pleasant to talk to. We explored the islands, walked through parks, and enjoyed the giant tortoises. Everything was great.

The only downside was the organizer; we were trying to find out how and where to get the best internet, and we were told to get a SIM card at the airport. 100GB cost 500 euros there. However, other people who arranged their entry permit online and bought the SIM card there paid six times less. Plus, we were not informed about the entry permit itself. We had to arrange it right at the airport before boarding and ended up paying 140 euros instead of 20 for the urgency. Other than that, I believe that a trip on a catamaran is the best way to visit Seychelles. You get to see a lot and immerse yourself in the place. Plus, you immediately gather a group of people to socialize with, so you definitely won't be bored alone. I highly recommend it.
