Today, Seychelles Minister for Foreign Affairs and Tourism, Sylvestre Radegonde, extended a “Happy International Tour Guides Day” message.
On this International Tour Guides Day, we celebrate the incredible role that tour guides play in shaping the way the world experiences new destinations. Today, we honor the passion, dedication, and expertise of these extraordinary individuals who serve as the vital link between travelers and the unique cultures and histories of the places they visit.
Imagine traveling to a new country where you don’t know anyone, don’t understand the language, and have no idea where to go. It can feel overwhelming, even intimidating. Now, think about the relief of meeting someone who welcomes you warmly, guides you with confidence, and helps you navigate this unfamiliar place.
In Seychelles, tourism is not just an economic sector—it is woven into the fabric of our identity.
Our guides are the storytellers who breathe life into our rich heritage, our traditions, and the breath-taking natural beauty of our islands. From the golden shores to the lush rainforests, our guides share the wonders of Seychelles, providing visitors with an experience that is as unforgettable as it is transformative.
The beauty of Seychelles is not just in its landscapes, but in the people, the culture, and the stories that make this paradise so special. Our cuisine, an exquisite blend of flavors and influences, offers travelers a taste of the islands’ vibrant culture. From mouth-watering fish curries and freshly caught seafood to tropical fruits and fragrant spices, the food here is an essential part of the Seychelles experience—and our guides are there to make sure visitors savor every moment of it.
On this day, we also recognize the responsibility that tour guides carry. They are custodians of our culture, protectors of our environment, and ambassadors of sustainability. They play an essential role in shaping how the world perceives Seychelles and, in doing so, help ensure that our islands remain a place of wonder for generations to come.
