It was beautiful but you can’t walk around alone. I was touched and followed. I had my sister always by my side and she is travel experienced. But the nature and the food was beautiful and it was a great experience

I felt safe when i was with my boyfriend! Without him, I think I would not have felt safe! The food was really good, but don’t go to any restaurants- its way too expensive. There are many kind of foodtrucks with homemade food!

I visited Seychelles for around 10 days, 6 nights in mahe, 3 nights in La Digue. Upon landing in the airport I luckily hitched a ride from another solo traveler. Later found out that there are local buses running. I felt safe in general. The locals are friendly. The prices are quite high, but manageable if you stay in self catering and have takeaway food, I’d give the average of €75 a night and €20-30 a day for food. Transport is quite tricky if you don’t drive, the bus schedule is available. I’d encouraged buying the bus card at airport or rent a car. Taxis are at least €40 per ride to go anywhere

I went to the Seychelles in May/June last year - it was incredible, like nowhere I have ever visited before. The food is amazing, the locals are so warm and friendly, I felt extremely safe. The culture is also amazing.

I traveled to Mahé in the summer as a solo traveler and it was amazing. I felt really safe, and the locals were nice and helpful. When I got confused with the bus schedule and got stuck in the rain a few kilometers from my resort, a maintenance worker gave me a lift. The prices were definitely high. Despite this, it was absolutely worth it.
