Explore the intoxicating Sir Selwyn Selwyn-Clarke Market in the heart of Victoria — the beating aromatic heart of Seychelles — then retire to a private kitchen for a hands-on Creole cooking masterclass with a local chef using the spices you've just sourced.
What to expect
The market is a sensory overload in the most magnificent way: pyramids of ochre turmeric, bunches of pandan, whole vanilla pods, and fishermen's catches of red snapper and capitaine laid on ice. Your chef selects the freshest ingredients and explains the Creole fusion of African, French, Indian, and Chinese influences. Back in a private kitchen, you cook fish curry, coconut chutney, and ladob dessert — then eat every last bite.
Good to know
The market is a 10-minute walk from Victoria Harbour. It is most vibrant in the morning, so aim to begin by 09:00. The masterclass runs approximately 3 hours. Pre-book directly to secure a private session.
