This is our second video from Africa's richest (by GDP per capita) and smallest (both by population and land area) country, the tiny island nation of the Seychelles🇸🇨
This archipelago known for its beautiful beaches and luscious green mountains north of Madagascar is a renowned vacation destination with the likes of the Maldives and Bora Bora. Do we think it matches up? Well, for what it lacks in pristine seclusion, it more than makes up for in culture and a fascinating and unique history.
Did you know that no one was living on the Seychelles when the French settled the islands in the 1770s? It's one of the few independent, formerly colonized countries that have practically no pre-colonial history!

Don't forget that it's also an integral part of one of the trickiest tongue twisters:
Shelley sells Seychelles shells at the Seychelles seashore!
All kidding aside, it's a beautiful and unique spot and thanks for sharing your experiences with us!
Thanks for a wonderful video. I like your new format and look forward to your next travel destination. As one who went to med school and residency in San Francisco I loved your comment about checking neighborhoods for earthquake. Thank goodness we don't have hurricanes, Cyclones or tornadoes.❤
I am addicted to this new format
Just realized that is Nonstopdan! I watch your videos before booking any business class flight 😂Great video, just subscribed! You guys are amazing and we have wanted to go to Seychelles for as long as I could remember!

Thank you for making Seychelles more know in the world❤️
I like this new format
Love your videos ❤❤❤
OMG must be breathtaking
Thanks for telling me about Magic honesty
Guys, I love your Content. It’s so much fun to watch.❤️
Thank you!!🥹
LOVING your new format Boys & realised how much I missed you on your well earned break. I'm constantly ignoring/ blocking other creators, over you. Particularly the straight "couples",which hurt my teeth they're so saccharine & hugely generic showing girls in dental floss bikinis,the boys who spent houts in the gym. Total narcissists the focus if always them.not the journey or sights along the way,being constantly distracted by the sheer banality.of their "dramaric lives ".
Your authenticity shine through, which mean it's always a treat to see you've posted..
Your channel is afresh breath of air.
You compliment each other SO well & as long as I"ve been watching, there has never been a bad video - though some of your actual encounters/experience, might be underwhelming, too touristy etc - was not so great.But,you're always totally professional & don't create drama or loose your authenticity.
Your're both looking extremely well,cinematography (is it just phone?),has just goes from strength to strength & everyone I've "introduced" your awesome vids to,has never had anything, but,plaudits for you & your channels & yes,that is includeding Dan's awesome plane/ flight channel.,with cameos of Oskar.
To find something you love is hard,,to turn it into what youve both achieved is worthy i admiration. More special that you not only share with your ever rising fan base,is exactly what you deserve,kudos. You are both amazing, like many,I hold out hope for an engagement/marriage.
Tom Daley,though offering very different content might if you're not watching his channel, , walk that woefully unknown path of managing,his CZcams channel, his diving/ training regime, will behind the scenes, his husband & mother mind their children. Quite right they never show their sons faces. As I've said before you will be awesome parents. Once you've got that wanderlust it never truly goes away.
Keep doing ,what you both do so well - have you thought of merch? - particularly well designed luggage, airplane pj's/ cabin clothing etc etc - & what you can't travel without must have - at all times,when you travel? As a long time traveller, with friends with similar influences? 😢
different content,
Thank you,for ,taking me back to a place where all of my family shared a house/ compound: I can almost hear & see a place I loved very much.
You make a lovely couple & are great role models to both young & old members of our community. As ever looking forward to your next drop
as always, very best wishes to you&yours 💥👊🙏👏👏👏💙💙👌⭐️'s✌️
Thank you so so much🙏🏼🙏🏼
Cool vlog!! I ❤ learning about the history of countries that I visit. I never knew that The Seychelles were settled by the French!!! You’re addicted to Boba. Rumtastic !
Magic looks like such a cool thing
Enjoy your channel, thanks
Guys, I personally like the new format. Take care!
Was there 3 weeks ago and enjoyed every minute
Cool!😀
101 is always WONDERFUL 🎉!
So love watching you guys ❤🇦🇺🇦🇺 from Australia
Great seeing you back to normal after the trama of am track
Hello Oscar and Dan. Welcome back. That’s awesome. I didn’t l ow Africa continent has a rich country. The g and for sharing ur videos x
Hi my friends ❤… thanks for the vid!!! I’m planning a surprise trip to my husband for our anniversary next year…. Your videos inspire me and I think it’s Gonna be to turkey … so I just want to thanks you all your tips … ❤❤❤❤❤❤
This is such fun! I had no idea the population is so small. Island time. You must have been so scared when your driver was no where to be found. I don’t like rum either! I like the new format by the way!
I am really enjoying your videos! Love how you two play off each other!
Thank you so much🙏🏼 We always love seeing local grocery stores😍
If you havn't been to Namibia, it is a gem worth exploring. Highly recommend you add it to your list.
Can't wait for Namibia!
Just as a point of reference my drink of choice, years ago, was white rum on the rocks with a squeeze of lime. I'm such a stickler on timing that I tend to get very anxious if things like car service is late to get me to the airport. I lived in Hawaii so I know what "island time" is all about. However it doesn't make me less anxious. Aside from that the Schyselles seems like a little slice of paradise.
You should come visit Reunion Island next to Mauritius. Small island but so much things to see if you're a nature lover. But don't expect luxury hotel there.
Well I thought the intro would be like this: Ladies & Gentlemen & 'those who are yet to decide'😅We are Oskar & Dan........
Btw its always a pleasure to watch you guyss❤
Born and raised in Seychelles
I like your past videos but this one seemed like a waste of time, you went all the way to the Seychelles and you showed us a grocery store and a shopping mall and a tiny glimpse of the beauty, Habout the incredible natural beauty of the islands?
Agreed. I felt these guys completely missed the exquisite beauty of Seychelles. La Digue and Praslin. The coral reefs for snorkelling. The beaches, the breathtaking mountains. I hope they go back and do a proper job sometime.
Super neat to see. My family are Seselwa and the family still there live in Mahe
So cool!
Fair play to u guys
THANK YOU OSKAR&DAN !!! SUGGESTION ON THE TITLE MAYBE CONSIDER Oskar&Dan adventures, otherwise always entertaining. john xoxoxo
as a chinese, the fact that they love bubble tea warmed my heart
Hooray for the Seychelles1
It’s so weird to see you inside what was my work computer’s screensaver for many years. 😆👍
😂😂
Is so gorgeous ❤
You guys need to go to Cocos and Keeling and Christmas Island
Is March a good month to Visit..
Too much of rains in March?
Hi guys you visit my island Seychelles cool😁😀
The view point is clos to were I live . I live in Seychelles ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
You have such a beautiful friendship
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
...Who's gonna tell him?
@@gervasejay1179let him be😂😭
@@gervasejay1179He'll discover soon or later 😂
History will call them the best of friends!
6:59 so Singapore
The Seychelles is on my bucket list. Heard it's very pricey.
Very pricy, & thats coming from a local. One tip do not buy those overpriced coconut
I guess now I know how those Americans on Jay Leno's show see the world.
Still sweating from your car showing up late🥵
SAME🤣
❤️
11:40 I’d never live in California for that reason 🤦🏽♂️
Can you go to Malaysia?
I’ve never enjoyed alcohol. I drank in my 20s because it’s what you do. But 1 day just never drank again. I enjoy visiting the Middle East because the drinks menus are usually non-alcoholic so I get lots of fun choices I don’t get anywhere else.
We also enjoy the mocktails menus in the Middle East😂
Wonder if it’s a vegan thing to always look at grocery stores in new places, bc i always love doing it too 🌱
Many non vegans enjoy this
This is where i live your on mahé
How did u guys get In to Arab countries
We promote you so more people can see plant-based eating around the world!
Hypermarket is like super walmart😂😅
How gonna show boba tea not up close with tapioca pearls lol. A well known retailer in US sells some yummy boba tea kits (my kit was honeydew with black pearls. ) Just add hot water, even comes with oversize straws 😋.
Hi! This is very out of the blue but I thought you guys might know and be able to answer this! Me and my boyfriend have a long layover in Doha airport in Qatar. On the website it says they offer complimentary hotels if your layover exceeds 8 hours (which ours does) and if there aren't any other flight options. But we have chatted with an agent for Qatar airlines and also spoken on the phone with one, and both of them have told us we have to pay for the hotel..
We don't really understand why and they wouldn't give us an answer. Do you guys happen to know? 😄 I was wondering if it has something to do with that we're not married, but I don't know 🤨
I think
beautiful and lovely country. but it is not the richest country in Africa
Erm. New format is a bit cringe. Nice to see you both back though.
I'm sure getting all history facts from the conquerors didn't reflect the authentic history of Seychelles but hey!
Honestly we love your videos but the new format is a solid no for us. We much prefer the old one, we found it easier to follow and just better for us. It’s just to scripted and this format will really never be able to not come across as heavily scripted.
Appreciate the feedback! Nothing is ever scripted in these videos :)
12 years I live there and work ..I'm indian
I tried Boba Guys based on Dan’s recommendation years ago. Can’t do sweet drinks so it’s not for me. Guess I’m too much of a coffee head. For me, a black, drip Peet’s Ethiopian Super Natural has enough natural sweetness. Loved seeing the Seychelles with you two, as usual.
Fascinating history!!! I do like you talking TO the camera (us) instead of off to the side like those reality shows do. Fun to see you experimenting with new ways to share your travels.
