The guide was very knowledgeable and explained a lot about the plants and animals on Curieuse Island. Due to the winds, we were not able to snorkel at St. Pierre, but we were taken to a different snorkeling site. We also were not taken to Anse La Farine as was in the tour description. It was incredible being able to interact with the giant tortoises and the Creole BBQ was really good.
We had a bad experience and did not enjoy this tour at all - likely due to our main tour guide/leaders just not being very good at their job and not being interested in the customers having a good experience. We wasted a lot of time in a place without any information being given to us (he just left us to our own while we could see a lot of other guides explaining and showing folks around). He was not very interested in helping the folks in our group (perhaps even rude) who did not know how to swim, even in exploring and learning more about snorkeling. The tour was cut off a lot sooner without explanations. The saving grace was the chef of the BBQ, who went above and beyond to make sure that even the vegetarians in our group had nice things to eat.
Dear Nihit Thank you for taking the time to share your detailed feedback regarding your recent tour with us. I am deeply sorry to hear that your experience was so disappointing and that we fell short of the high standards we pride ourselves on. What you described is absolutely not the level of service we aim to provide. Our guides are expected to be informative, attentive, and inclusive to all guests, regardless of their swimming or snorkeling abilities. It is incredibly disappointing to hear that you were left without proper guidance while witnessing other groups being looked after. Furthermore, cutting a tour short without a clear, valid explanation is completely unacceptable. Please rest assured that I am addressing this directly with the tour leader involved to ensure this does not happen again. On a positive note, I am glad to hear that our BBQ chef took such great care of the vegetarians in your group. I will be sure to pass along your kind words to them personally, as they truly embody the hospitality we strive for.
We had a great day! The staff is very caring and very friendly, the guide who took us across the mangrove was great and patient with our 4 year old daughter, the meal was very good.
Great family excursion to Curious Island with snorkeling! Many thanks to José, guide at the top: nice and informative. Perfect organization, beautiful scenery and delicious barbecue. We recommend 100%!
I had a very good experience the staff were very helpful and very professional the food was amazing, I would definitely recommend
Great excursion and very good experience. The team was on top as well as the meal. I recommend.
Wonderful and varied one-day experience! Huge thanks to our amazing guide who was very knowledgeable and patient with our group. The BBQ was great as well. We were supposed to snorkel at St. Pierre, but due to sea conditions our guide responsibly decided on an alternative location, which was appreciated.
We made the half-day tour to Curieuse. They were dropped off at the beach and had to wait 45 minutes until it started. To get to the turtles and the pick-up site, everyone had to cross the island, whether they wanted to or could. With the turtles we had 10 minutes to look around. Then we went snorkelling by boat a few meters further. ( St.Pierre could not be approached due to weather conditions). After 15 minutes we went back to Praslin. A not recommended tour.
Well, if you have not encountered the giant tortoises this is it! Absolutely unreal experience. This tour delivers you to Curieuse Island fantastic beach Anse Jose with a small museum telling you the story of the leprosy colony that used to be there and then you walk across the island on the trail and meet the giants. Lovely creole BBQ included before its time to leave for the snorkelling which is not spectacular due to El Nino. Staff was two different sides if the coin where Jose/Jousy the chef was an exceptional excellent guide and chef whilst the captain, Benoit, was not too interested in his guests and he really has a lot of work to do with his "people skills"
The experience was really interesting, the island is small but nature is the master. Turtles are beautiful. The guys who accompanied us were very good and very kind. The rich and excellent lunch. I recommend it.
