Kuoni Travel UK, part of DER Touristik, one of Europe’s leading travel groups, has continued to set the pace in luxury worldwide travel in the UK market for over fifty years and is regularly voted one of the best holiday companies in the country by readers of national newspapers and travel industry titles. Taking the title of VIP top seller trip, as chosen by Kuoni, in September 2016 is none other than Seychelles.

A group from the company arrived in the early morning on September 9 and will be in Seychelles until September 14. To welcome them on arrival at the airport was the Minister for Tourism and Culture, Alain St.Ange; the Seychelles Tourism Board CEO, Sherin Francis; the Seychelles Tourism Board’s Manager for UK, Tinaz Wadia; and Blaisila Hoffman of Creole Travel Services.


Kuoni UK excels in creating tailor-made holidays and honeymoons to more than 90 destinations around the world. Over the last six years, Kuoni has grown its retail network across the UK and can be found on premium high streets and in selected John Lewis department stores. Each store is unique in design and showcases Kuoni’s Personal Travel Experts and personalized customer service.

The Kuoni UK VIP top seller group will be hosted at the Hilton Silhouette Labriz and Constance Ephelia after having flown business class to the Seychelles on Emirates. After the Seychelles, the group will combine their trip with Dubai where they will be accommodated at the Burj al Arab.

The group consists of KUONI’s top sellers inclusive of their retail network, trade business, senior managers, and John Harwoord, the Senior Sales Executive of Emirates London Leisure Sales. This trip is serving as a thank you by the company, and the trip is inclusive of various “wow” factors and experiences at the various destinations.



The group’s ground-handling arrangements are being taken care of by Creole Travel Services – the tour operator’s ground handler in the Seychelles. The Seychelles Tourism Board office in the UK has organized, in conjunction with Kuoni, various activities and excursions during their stay in the Seychelles.
