Leo is great. We were in safe hands!
Samuel helped out when we had problems in Canada - getting us back home without hassle. He was really helpful.
Great service, thank you Gino, have booked with you before and will book with you again in the future
Flight easily arranged and all confirmed efficiently.
We had no problems speaking to your staff and we found them to be very polite and helpful.
Brilliant service from start to finish! Highly recommended.
Brilliant time away - would definitely use again
As an elderly person and a widow, I have found the help and assistance from DialAFlight invaluable over the past few years. My husband always did the online bookings for flights so I am grateful now for the help. Everything has always gone smoothly for me which is great as I travel alone each summer to visit my son and family in Vancouver.
Despite the problem of having to pay extra to ensure that we had twin beds in our room at the Fairmont Waterfront in Vancouver the trip was great and well organised.
A five star service. Our agent Adrian provided us with superb customer services. We are recommending DialAFlight to all our friends.
I've used DialAFlight for many years and have always found them excellent. Takes all the stress out of booking flights and have recommended them to many people
Tammy was really good and very helpful.
Great trip - fantastic experience, hotels were great and good positions - all went like clockwork as Sean explained. Used you before this trip - we will be using you again on our next adventure......
Will continue to use your services. You are now my travel agent!
You are such a good company. Like you have a friend helping you on your trip. Thank you
All went very well, thank you.
Great service and excellent value
Many thanks for all your help and expertise Ivor
Everything that you did was fine. Although we won't be flying with British Airways again due to issue on outward and return flights.
We are very pleased with the excellent service provided by Jordan Fell and DialAFlight in general.
You are amazing and got me off to Canada when Microsoft problem was bad at Heathrow. Many thanks!
Flights & transfers all went as scheduled, with a few delays and gate changes. I did arrive early as none of the airline apps or DialAFlight app would let me check-in online. That could be an issue if time was tight. Overall a good trip, thank you
Everything as expected, thank you.
Great service. Very helpful
All the staff are very helpful. Thanks Reggie and the team.
I always use Harriet to book my flights to see family in Canada. Service is always brilliant and would 100% recommend.
Everything went very smoothly as always with DialAFlight. My only concern which is outside your control, we were unable to select seats which resulted in us being seated separately on our return flight
So easy - took all the stress out of booking myself online
Very helpful. Polite staff
An earthly paradise was how boatswain Thomas Jones described the Seychelles when, in 1609, the British merchant ship Ascension was separated from its fleet by a storm and dropped anchor in Mahé.
And ship's agent John Jourdain, who was sent out by the East India Company, wrote in the first known description of the islands: 'It is a very good refreshing place for wood, water, coker nuts, fish and fowle, without any fear or danger ...'
Some 400 years later, the same can still be said. It boasts some of the world's best beaches and most diverse wildlife.
NATURE’S BEST
The hotels are wonderful, but these islands never forget that the top selling point is still the fresh, natural splendour that first caught Thomas Jones's eye
It is all about the destination here, says Edouard Grosmangin - even though, as manager of the new Six Senses Zil Pasyon resort, he is justly proud of his hotel.
This ethos of cherishing nature is echoed everywhere on the heavily-forested Félicité Island, where Six Senses opened recently. Its 30 villas slope towards the blue ocean, perfectly poised to catch the sunrise.
PURE TRANQUILITY
The beaches have just a few hammocks swinging lazily in the breeze - and of course, perhaps a hawksbill turtle or two coming to lay their eggs.
The hotel doesn't compete with nature, rather it allows you to stare at the ripe mangoes and emerald green lizards from your bathtub or bed.
There are no room service charges (try the coconut pancakes with lime syrup and mango compote at breakfast). It is also within easy reach of other islands, which you can explore.
Twenty minutes away is Praslin, the second largest island in the archipelago, where the Unesco World Heritage Site of Vallée de Mai was mistaken for the Garden of Eden by British General Charles Gordon in 1881. He thought the suggestive seed of the Coco de Mer palm, the largest seed in the world, must be the forbidden fruit.
Praslin is also famed for its soft white sand. Anse Lazio, on the island's north edge, is considered by many to be the best beach in world.
Admire it from a seat at restaurant Bonbon Plume, where under thatched umbrellas you can eat octopus curry.
A MINI CYLCE TOUR
On another day, we bicycled around La Digue, a slow-paced island opposite Félicité, where not long ago the only mode of transport was ox cart.
We passed vanilla plantations and takamaka trees (also the name of the local rum) and swam off the beach of Anse Source d'Argent. The water is translucent and two dogs chased large fish in the shallows. Needless to say, this quarry is too nimble for their clumsy paws. Along the shoreline, giant granite boulders add structural beauty.
MORE ACTIVITIES
You can kayak across the ocean to the Île Cocos, part of the Marine National Park, where snorkelling reveals powder blue surgeonfish, Moorish idols, parrotfish and the striking oriental sweetlips, with black and yellow stripes and dots that could grace a catwalk.
Other islands in the archipelago include North Island, where William and Kate honeymooned, and Frégate, the luxury eco-resort where celebrities arrive by helicopter.
There are plenty of fish to be spotted on the corals around Félicité, but it's also worth heading inland to see the trees.
TAKING CARE OF WILDLIFE
South African Steve Hill, the resident permaculturist, who eradicated rats and introduced tortoises to the island, has been here for nearly nine years.
He has supervised the removal, across hundreds of acres, of the coco plum, which strangled many native species. In its place he planted indigenous trees and shrubs to encourage birds such as the Seychelles white-eye and fody. As we walk around avocado and mango trees, stop under the shade of the takamaka — and look at the fruit of the bigarade — Steve gives his vision for the island's future.
Commitment to preservation comes from the top, and is on the school curriculum. Steve believes Félicité can be the Seychelles' bio-diversity hotspot. Here, nature is the star of the show.
