This video has been very helpful! I always wanted to go to Seychelles but perhaps I will check out Zanzibar instead because I wanted to experience my people's culture. I'm not looking to vacation in Europe like places, respectfully. 👀
Lamu island in Kenya is also great. When I'm in Africa, I need to feel/see what the majority of Africa looks like.
We need to claim our Island back
Karibu Zanzibar
Exactly!
@@frmtheBkstore Zanzibar is way more beautiful than Lamu I have been to both places.
Tayo... you need to always reveal the name of the hotels, services or establishments that give crappy and bad service anywhere you go.... this will help the rest of us avoid such places and it will shame them and make them improve their services. Thanks for bringing us this information and videos.
I put the name of the first hotel there 😅. Coral Strands .
I agree 100% ..
Sometimes they treat you bad because they think you wont be spending money at the hotel which is bad i mean really bad
Shame? Well damn that was a bit cruel
It's very necessary.
I really hate how if a country is “not black enough” or “too advanced” or “too exotic” it’s seen as not part of Africa even though geographically they are part of the continent. Such as countries like Egypt, Seychelles, Mauritius, Cape Verde etc.
It’s so annoying because Africa is such a diverse continent but non-Africans perpetuate this monolithic image of “What Africa is” , So when there are countries that are different from what Africa is perceived like they are subconsciously dissociated from the rest of the continent.
*ETA*: Oh my goodness! Some of you have completely missed the point so let me clarify. I am not trying to claim Arabs, white South Africans and Indians as Africans! What I’m saying is that as long as a country is geographically part of the African continent it IS AN AFRICAN COUNTRY! Whether the people that inhabit there identify as African or not. Egypt is a country in the North of Africa. Seychelles is a country right off the coast of East Africa. Cape Verde is a country right off the coast of West Africa! So Africans and those of African descent explore the beautiful continent of Africa and all of its diversity (the islands, the deserts in North and Southern Africa etc. ) . Don’t let the locals or the muzungus make you feel like you shouldn’t be there.
Seychelles and Cape Verde are very much part of "Africa". They are mixed, but retain a lot of similarities with the rest of the continent. Mauritius (excluding the creole island of Rodrigues) and lower Egypt have very little to do with the rest of Africa and should be considered fundamentally different places more similar to the Middle East and India. I don't know why some people use geography to water down the shared identity of equatorial Africa. People are not a landmass. People are shared history, genetics and culture. That's why Europeans don't call themselves "Eurasians" because they share a landmass with Asia. Unlike you, they value their unique identity.
@@WillieFungo Africa is a continent. There are other people from other parts of the world who made USA their home and are called Americans. It is the identity not the culture that make up a continent. I disagree with your point. It is basic and perpetuates the very idea these parts of the continent people hold about themselves.
This place is in Africa, but it is COLONIZED! Not sure why it’s soo hard for you to understand that. 🤦🏾♂️
@@youme1414 If you were proud to be an African, you wouldn't be desperate to share that identity with Egyptian Arabs and Mauritian Indians. Your problem is lack of pride.
I was thinking the same thing! I'm from the USA but I'm more familiar with the northern African countries because of the travel channels that I watch. I think Tayo would be culture shocked if he stepped in most of the northern African countries where often the majority of the population are not black. I enjoyed the video but I found that part a little off putting.
It is crazy how much this felt like a Caribbean country. The architecture, the beaches, the social problems (colourism)
every where those yt dogs went,they brought their disease of colorism
I legit thought to myself that it reminded me of a mix of allll the Caribbean islands in one, well maybe not all but quite a few lolol. I'm Trini and felt like this could easily be Trinidad and I thought of all the other islands as well and yes as you mentioned the colourism is quite reminiscent as well.

Eti s3n? we would welcome you
please go and enlighten people. I even became more prouder of my country Kenya.
who ever said "you will never know until you go" should take 4 bottles of Takamaka ill pay.
very nice place,i know @wode maya never dissapoint too
This video is really expensive sometimes I wonder how he funds this videos for our entertainment and just for us to see, guys let's do what we can to support him by watching ad's. But still, great videos always a banger!
Thanks bro! Appreciate you
I dnt have ads, so just paying the $10per month for TH-cam may be helpful
From a fellow seychelleoise I'm very sorry for the way you were treated here.It is nothing new from my people especially when it comes to African tourists it's not the first time people complain about racism here and i feel ashamed for some of our ignorant peope here.I agree with you and i have seen many Africans and Indian expats being mistreated by locals and even black ones.Im glad you showed it how it was and you shared your experience as a black tourist.And about the cost of living seychelles is very expensive even for us the locals.Prices are over exaggerated here.But i feel next time you visit seychelles you should get a better guide who can show you around and help you get better cultural experience for affordable prices
Thank you for your objective review!!
My fatther hails from the seychelles, but never taught me the language...creole cest une belle langue.
Im from Seychelles aswell and i agree with what you said ✔️💯
Hi new girl
How are you?
Can u give me your contact? Am visiting the Island 🏝 this December
I'm a Seychellois and i totally agree on what you're saying. On behath of my people i trully apologize for our ignorance. We are all people and should be treated fairly and equally.
I’m big on supporting locals so I stayed at Daniella’s Bungalow in Mahe, a locally operated guest house. The host, Daniella, is amazing, the place is straight across the beach and on the local bus route which makes getting around the island convenient. She also makes amazing breakfast!
Can u pls post a link to reach her? Thanks.
@@Kitmus73 kindly share her details. We are planning an anniversary getaway.
@@lynettemokgano9009 I'm asking for details too from the original poster. I don't know this person. I'm Kitmus73.
@@Kitmus73 please accept my apology
THIS IS GOOD TO KNOW,,WHY FOCUS ON THE BAD??,,GIVE YOUR MONEY TO THE GOOD,,,,
I enjoyed watching this video and as a seychellois I agree that the cost of living is very high for both tourists and locals, the only difference that we're used to it so I can imagine how shocking it is for foreigners especially the differences in quality and value for your money. I apologize that you had to experience Coral Strand, a hotel that even locals tend to avoid because of the crappy service and it's sad to admit that crappy service is a constant thing in Seychelles 🙃 But I hope that despite the fact that its very expensive here, that you were able to enjoy your time here at least 😊
Now this . He said he wanted to leave as soon as he arrived , meaning he regretted setting his foot there . The racism . The inferiority complex was not bearable .
@@lekholokoelekotsoanamoloi9593 inferiority complex? If I understand you, literally saying Seychelles is better than Nigeria?
@@tobikayjaykay9791 No my brother , it is the people of Seychelles who have self hatred . I realized they prefer white people over Africans
@@lekholokoelekotsoanamoloi9593 sorry sir Seychelles we are not racism 😠 ok we are a friendly people you don't not anything 🤫.
Fennella this is wonderful what you have said about home. We each have a few things about our hometowns that can be improved but I would wish that we could all do a bit more research when we are traveling to smaller nations. Simply because options are few in each tax/hotel bracket when you don’t research enough. Travel is expensive so like in real estate people say, location, location, location….travel is: research, research, research or verify, verify, verify.🤗
Am watching from Saint Lucia 🇱🇨 and Seychelles looks so much like the island i reside also they speak creole here in Saint Lucia
Eh eh!…hello from England
Wow they really want you to know how mixed they are: "yo we're mixed, w'ere mixed, did I mention we're mixed"
oooook.
Is that supposed to be rare?
Perfect! Now I can plan my trip to Zanzibar with no hesitation. Seychelles was on my list for 2022 but I’ll postpone it for now.
Come to Zanzibar around early February for Sauti za Busara festival
Prepare to be disappointed in Zanzibar.
Come on guys let's take tayo to 1 million I have been with him since 26k and he keeps making me love nigeria and Africa more
Seychelles really looks beautiful..Africa is beautiful.
I have always wanted to visit Seychelles as a Geographer but after watching this review, the vibe is dead. Its off what I expected
Then you don't know what you missing. Yes we are expensive but Tayo also came at the wrong time since we are still under covid restrictions and should have gotten a proper guide to take him to the right places. he mostly visited tourist spots and not the real Seychelles. Plus he didn't get the chance to visit some great other Island. After all, we have 115 islands total. You want to really enjoy your stay you need to get the right people to take you around.
I would encourage you to go and create your own experiences. Don't let one or two people stop you. Get out there and live, enjoy and learn. You won't regret it.
@@djb.8507 wow 😮
@@djb.8507 can you list some of the right places, as you stated
Have lived and worked in The Seychelles and I can say that its really amazing to live in this Island. amazing people ,culture and the temperatures as well as the weather. you leave Victoria raining reaching providence its scorching sun.
you want first hand experience don't come for two days, come for a whole month and get what's right. yea it could be expensive but what do you expect from a nation worth 100k people which imports every commodity including biscuit.
I visited Seychelles from Nigeria in 2018 and stayed at Mahe but also spent time at La Digue and Praslin. It was lovely but I totally relate to this video. I felt a bit unwelcome starting from the Airport. I was especially upset when the black seychellois Immigration officer allowed everyone to pass through but stopped my new bride's bag to have it searched, without any good explanation. Not the best way to start a honeymoon. However, our rented villa and hosts were lovely and very accomodating. By day 2, ee ditched the exorbitant taxis and paid pennies for buses which allowed us to experience the real Seychelles
I agree with everything you said! I just came back from Seychelles not too long ago and said similar things on my vlog and people said to come check yours out. The Europeans gave us all kinds of attitude and dirty looks, the service from the hotel was mediocre, food was OK & it's VERY expensive! It's a beautiful country nonetheless. Would I go back? Probably not, but I'm happy that I crossed it off my bucket list. Great Video Tayo!
Why were the European giving attitude?
@@diamonddre4626 Because they're arrogant.
@@chigasaki06 Europeans think they own the World . Look at them here in south Africa they're only 10% but control 80% (economy) 75% ( Land). This can not go on . ANC must FALL .
@@chigasaki06 sounds about right. Self entitled.
The Europeans probably still think they run the island. Because they are given preferential treatment when they visit there.
Tayo lot's of love and support from India ❤️💕😍
Instead of staying in the hotel, use air b and b for an apartment, it's cheaper
Thank you so much for making this video. As a Seychellois studyin to work in the tourism industry, i completely agree about the service and the treatment not being good enough. And i think this video should be seen by the people that is doing their best at continuing to build our tourism industry so they can have a better idea of what maybe could be their next step. We should be sharing ourselves with our fellow africans and let them know that they are also welcomed, not just european and asian countries.
I'm Jamaican and I'm looking forward to visiting
@@sofiaairbnbja , don't. These Black people clearly don't like other Black people. Why would you go there and spend your money there?
@@jamdawgutube you have a point
@@jamdawgutube im from Seychelles and I want more black people to visit.
Honestly, this video is a misrepresentation of the rest of us who are actually woke and know a thing or two about black solidarity.
@@FS-bi8fk , hey, thanks for your response.
A friend, a Holiday operator invites me for a holiday in Seychelles but now I've changed me mind to Puerto Rico de Gran Canaria.
Seychelles is beautiful. But can we acknowledge the beautiful and cool lady we've seen a couple of times in Tayo's videos? I noticed her the first time in his Ethiopia travel videos. I like their chilled vibe. No pressure, Tayo. We will be here when you are ready to open up lol
🤦🏾♀️😂
@@AnnieSpecial92861 😂😂😂😂 Kaiiii. Wahala
I completely agree.......we don Mark her name down 😜✍️
@@TayoAinaFilms what hotel would you recommend
Had an amazing time in Seychelles. Honestly, it was one of my cheapest international vacations. We spent the majority of our time in Praslin and on Eden Island and we stayed in Airbnb‘s versus hotels. While we did notice that we didn’t see a lot of other Black tourist there, we made friends with locals and had an awesome time seeing some non-touristy corners of Mahé.
Hello I’m interested in going to Praslin. I’m having trouble trying to get the logistics down of how to get there from the United States. Any information would be great! Thanks.
@@TiffanyEmotions Delta/Air France flies into Mahè as well as Emirates. You’ll have to connect in Paris or Dubai. Then take the ferry to Praslin.
You did Seychelles the correct way
Had it crossed your mind that the overwhelming majority of tourists to the Seychelles being white has anything to do with the average black person/family being hugely poorer than Caucasians?
Cheapest 🤔🤔
Really weird how so many nations with very high-african ancestry don't even consider themselves african. Dominican republic and of course seychelles are two extremes.
why should that bother you.For all i care they might have fallen from the moon....if only this africanism was transformed to work instead of a social agenda we could move forward.

I loved every bit of my stay.

Owning your own narrative, Africa is an amazing continent. Great content
Thanks for the great vid @Tayo ... I have fond memories of the Seychelles as my wife and I went there for our honeymoon almost a decade ago ... I have never seen another island so beautiful like the Seychelles ... Our host family was just amazing and we have kept in touch to this day (Check Au Fond De Mer View Self Catering Apartment in Anse Royale) ... The warmth and culture of the Seychellois people will never leave my memory ... I look forward to going back with the kids sometimes in the near future :-)
very well done, was there 10yrs ago and your video bought back great memories
Just Loved this ... ❤❤❤
Great Docu 👏👏👏👏
Nice one bro, I do believe is expensive BCS is another way of discouraging many people from coming BCS they can't afford to accommodate so many tourists. Over here in Europe we have similar places too. Monaco, Ibiza!
Hi to Seychelles neighbors of Somalia 🇸🇴 we share similar beaches ✌️❤️

Beautiful Island! My dream vacation country.
lets visit
my island 🏝 I love it .
Do not listen to them, do your own research about the island and make your dream come true.
I traveled to the Seychelles in the 90s such a beautiful country and beautiful people
Thanks a lot for this comprehensive video. I’d still love to visit, but definitely happy to be aware of some of the things you have highlighted now
I fell in love in the Seychelles. Had an amazing time .
It's so cool that their accents are so Caribbean! I assumed they would speak with a more African accent, but I'm hearing Jamaican, Trini, and Bajian mixed together! Really beautiful country! I also noticed that the man speaking about the culture didn't mention African as a cultural influence...
Nothing that I hate like blacks who hate blacks base on skin colour. I will never set foot there.
He obviously made a mistake. We're a mix of Africa, Europe and Asia. Don't know why he said Chinese lol
@@rutha8562 he made a mistake and forgot about Africa . I have friends mixed with chinese so that's not an issue. I guess he should have said Asia more appropriate.
@@annasey2008 yeah that's exactly what I'm saying! He didn't have to be specific.
@nicole said the same thing about their accent. Even the topography of the island is just as the Caribbean even could pass for Dominica 🇩🇲 where I’m from.
It’s interesting that the guy didn’t mentioned Africa to be part of the mixture of the race while most of them are quite dark
My thoughts as well.
It was only his opinion. Not everyone in seychelles has the same mentality as he does
I was thinking the same thing. They deny their black heritage then 1000 years later they say black people never lived there (cough cough, north Africa, cough).
@@jzk2020 Not they* him😀
My thoughts as well, I will never set foot in such country.
Thanks for sharing these videos bro we are travelling with you virtually- great work!!!!
Another great video Tayo, nicely done 👏

@@djb.8507 glad to hear! I suggest you join a debate team, become a lawyer, apply for a new job as a fact checker, or join your local tourism board.
@@djb.8507 Lord have mercy! You sure talking like you’re a stakeholder that actually owns something. I’m going to do you a favor by gathering up all your comments and send them to the Tourist Board.

Beautiful lsland, beautiful views and great adventure
Damn… what a beautiful place! Thank you for showing us:)
I have seen in this comment section many people who has never even step foot in the Seychelles making conclusions based on a 14 minutes video on the experience of one person. I am not undermining the experience of anyone. However let the people who has been here who actually experience whatever you assume us locals go through talk. Because one cannot speak on a history and culture one hasn’t experience nor understand.

Mauritius is the best 😊
Don't be ridiculous, only because Mauritius is cheaper than Seychelles doesn't mean that we are that bad😏
Same thing dominated by Indians
It's even worse than Seychelles. The racism is worse plus pollution made me sick for days.
Wow Seychelles is so beautiful, talking about the people Africa is a diverse continent, don't expect to see dark or black skin everywhere you go, they are mix, Arab, nd others Africa people too.

Seychelles is one of my favorite country in Africa
Bro i truly appreciate the way you recommended Zanzibar.
I'm local guider from Zanzibar and please make sure you check me when you come back.
Much love
Thanks Bro.Awesome video
Finally the video I've been waiting for. Been thinking of going to either Seychelles or Cape Verde next year. Already watched your Cape Verde video and was hoping you could do Seychelles as well in order to compare.
Thankfully, this video did justice to it for me
Why there aren't more Black people from the Mainland is probably because of Europeans come with Higher purchasing power I guess and most don't know about the place. In Nigeria they don't advertise other African countries to us and we end up going to spend exorbitant prices in Europe and America.
Thankfully your channel and Maya's open a lot more eyes to the beauty within our borders where we don't have to experience racism just to have a good time.
There is the internet to explore and read about the many destinations in Africa.

Seychelles is absolutely beautiful. We have visited over the past 40 years and watched it become a sort after exclusive resort but although I can’t afford to visit any more I think it is worth every penny in you can 💜
what of Ghana?
Time for a hanging out with the locals in Seychelles video. The landscape is beautiful.
I've always wanted to visit Seychelles... Nice video
Awesome review. I think you got most things right from a tourist perspective. To get the culture you have to get on the back roads. My spouse is from Mahe. Seychelles is certainly a beautiful kaleidoscope of culture and races and food. I had some wonderful feasts and perhaps a little bit too much Takamaka infused dance sessions.. If you thought your driving was a little difficult on the road you pointed out, there are definitely some much more nerve-racking roads to get where my family lives in Bale Lazare. 😬 Thank you for your video. 👍🏿👍🏾👍🏽👍🏼👍🏻👍
Seychelles 🇸🇨 is a very beautiful area, thanks for sharing this video, nice country! Toya, your videos are nice, thanks for doing what you do best, a big fan of you in Liberia 🇱🇷!
I live in Seychelles i wish one day if you come to visit Seychelles i will see you .
This is beautiful. Thank God, &Thank you for sharing this 🙏 🙌
Wow, I’m sold. This place is absolutely gorgeous 🥰
Seychelles appears to have identity issues. For example, when the native gentleman described "Kreol", he conveniently forgot African as a part of the mixture along with Indian Asian, and European. The natives don't mention their African heritage and when this is left out, they will treat those that they view as being more African very poorly. I had this island on my bucket list however it may be removed.
@@djb.8507 "genuine mistake" in the middle of a Black festival? Unlikely.
Not a place for it looks like black Africans are not really welcome lol 😂? Ghana 🇬🇭 is perfect and the people are welcoming so Ghana all day 🤓🤓🤪
Having been to Seychelles, i can say they don't consider themselves as Africans. Asides the proximity to the continent, i think they are more Indian than African. As for the visit, they have a good vibe but expensive which is not really a bad thing. For the food, try the Beau Vallon beach as the hotel food comes out bland for an African.
Mauritius is like Seychelles but way better with a lot of proud, friendly & prosperous black people & the weather is amazing... Trust me!!!
@@djb.8507 I give you a practical example. While at La Digue on the Island Hopping trip, part of the buffet served was a certain beans variety which i saw there for the first time. In order to encourage me to eat it, the lady (a Seychellois) said to me: "I know you eat that in Africa cause i have been to Africa and i ate it there too." That statement got me wondering where we were at the moment.
These are valid experiences as most of your people don't easily identify as Africans which is okay. Going through every comment to nullify or argue peoples experiences isn't necessary. You can do that when it is a perception but saying people did not experience what they did is not a good fight.
On a good side, the racism stuff does not exist. We discovered Beau Vallon food on day 3 of our 5 day trip and we ate there every single day till we left. Got some takeaway too. The food was irresistible. Best shrimps i ever tasted. The island is a bubbling and youthful one. The immigration staff on our departure was probably in her early 20s. Unheard of in my country Nigeria. Your Island hosted the exiled Ghanaian Kumasi royalty before he returned home. I observed the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG) has a branch there which says a lot about the Nigerian presence there. Also met 2 basketball players who ply their trade there. So yeah, the blacks are on ground. Just that on the tourism experience side, you have more Europeans than Africans trooping in which explains Tayo's experience. That is valid.
Beautiful place, lovely people…was there this summer. Just gave me the chill seeing all the places all again through your video. I didn’t get the treatment you got. I felt I really welcomed. Perhaps I got lucky. It also felt like Trinidad & Tobago. Same vibes. I stayed at the Story hotel. Definitely, will be revisiting to explore more.
Thank you for the nice comments. Seychelles is expensive and to enjoy it you need cash. The story hotel is nice and pricy in comparison to the coral stand which is classified as a 3 stars Hotel. Coral strand is the very basic. Come here enjoy and leave your pride at home, we are down to earth. It seems that the author is looking down on the people of Seychelles and seychellois can sense it.
@@sharonvel4485 your comment makes no single sense.

Absolutely beautiful…
Crazy! Yesterday I was researching vacation spots and I was considering Seychelles for my mom's birthday now I think Zanzibar would be best. Thanks for the Video
Thanks for the update on Seychelles
Looks so nice! Great video 👍🏻
am currently in Seychelles and yes, your accurate with everything,.. Am Always at the beach and for the 8days i have been here i have only seen 2 black people in the water, and it was hard getting in the country as a black person alone, they as all these wired questions. I have been to Zanzibar twice and i would definitely recommend Zanzibar to Seychelles, Because it offers value for money.
Because it was Covid, and there restrictions.
I’ve been researching this island for years and it looks amazing. Very expensive to become a resident though. I don’t think they want it to be over crowded which is a good thing. Very low key!
Thank you for your informative video . Food for thought . 😊
Weldon Tayo, always give out budget tips on what can sustain this travels
