The Seychelles welcomes Sky News Arabia to its shores
Sky News Arabia in partnership with the Seychelles Tourism Board (STB), embarked on a 5-day journey to the Seychelles showcasing the Islands’ lush biodiversity and vibrant creole culture on the TV channel’s morning show, Hakibat Safar.
The Hakibat Safar
show, a weekly segment where the hosts explore cultures and attractions of
different destinations, giving their UAE audience an insight into these
countries, enticing them to visit these locations themselves.
During their stay
in Seychelles, the Sky News team explored the capital of Victoria, enjoying the
destination’s rich historical and cultural memoirs from the iconic Clock Tower
and Natural Museum to the small souvenir shops scattered all over the town.
Taking advantage
of the tropical weather, the team participated in several activities including
zip lining and water sports such as diving and snorkeling in the crystal blue
waters, observing the vibrant marine life.
Since a trip to
the Seychelles would be incomplete without visiting, its pristine beaches it is
so well known for, the Sky News Arabia team made no exception to the rule. One
of those beaches visited by the team is the Anse Lazio beach situated on the
second largest islands of the Seychelles, Praslin. The island is also home to
the UNESCO World Heritage site of Vallée De Mai, where the team explored the
site’s verdant biodiversity, including the Coco de Mer, the world’s largest nut
indigenous to the Seychelles.
To
complete their memorable experience of the Creole culture and the destination,
the Sky News Arabia team had the opportunity to indulge in a range of culinary
delights within the stretch of their 5-day stay at the destination.
Mr.
Ahmed Fathallah, Account Manager for STB Office in Dubai expressed his
satisfaction to have had the prestigious television team in Seychelles.
“To
experience is one of the most effective methods to entice the clients as they
can passionately share their experience and advise which product and services
will be suitable for each segment. We will continue to partner with esteemed
entities in the region as this serves as a valuable tool,” says Mr. Fathallah.
The Sky News team
was hosted by the H Resort Beau Vallon Beach during their stay.
After
their trip, the Sky News Team was able to present their experience to their
audience, showing them why the Seychelles is one of the most alluring island
destinations in the world.
