CREOLE is one of the leading destination management companies (DMC) in the idyllic Seychelles Islands. We are a family owned and operated business, falling under the extensive umbrella of the JFA Group of Companies which also includes inter-island ferry transfers, hotels, a nature reserve, and an IATA agent. JFA would be the initials of the literal “founding father” of Creole and its affiliated companies, Mr. Joseph France Albert, our Chairman and father to our CEO, Mr. Guillaume Albert.

Founded and established by the Chairman, one of Seychelles’ most prominent businessmen, CREOLE is a company born from a 2005 merger between two of Seychelles’ leading destination management companies: Creole Holidays and Travel Services Seychelles (TSS).

The experienced TSS led the way in tourism in Seychelles for more than 30 years, whilst the younger and innovative Creole Holidays breathed a new vitality into the industry. Under the banner of CREOLE, this new DMC provides the perfect blend of tradition and flair, savoir-faire and dynamism, efficiency and personalised service.

An ISO-9001:2008 certified company, CREOLE is run from Seychelles by a team of creative and passionate travel professionals, committed to delivering high levels of service with an added special touch. In our effort to meet the challenges of this fast-paced industry, we have not lost sight of the values that make us stand out from the rest. We continue to evaluate, upgrade and innovate our programmes to exceed the expectations of our clients and partners.

Our priorities are a reflection of our Vision, Mission and our Values
