Inspiration for your own tailor-made trip
Seychelles - Mahe - La Digue - Praslin
100% customisable for you
Overnight flight, arriving the next day.
Pick up your rental car and spend three nights in your first exclusive location, nestled between tropical gardens and the Indian Ocean.
In the itinerary - A Creole dinner by the ocean: suspended from the rocks in a pretty sheltered cove, a shaded terrace sits lined with golden sand and is decorated with wooden furniture, sheer curtains and garlands of shells.
Mahe, the main island of the Seychelles, is home to Victoria, the smallest capital city in the world, with its colourful colonial houses. In terms of beaches, the most famous are Beau Vallon, Anse Soleil, Anse la Mouche, and Anse Intendance, stunning with their granite rocks and emerald takamaka plants. If you love walking, the island offers magnificent hikes, especially in Morne Seychellois National Park.
The itinerary - A hike to the Copolia summit (intermediate level), sitting 1,640 ft above sea level, which offers spectacular views of the green hills behind Victoria, the deep blue ocean and the surrounding islands. The reasonably shaded trail passes through the forests of Morne Seychellois National Park which is a great opportunity to discover endemic flora and fauna.
Explore Mahe - Visit Victoria market for its lively atmosphere, colourful stalls and spice scents. Come to meet locals and get acquainted with daily life in Seychelles. Also, take a walk in the wonderfully perfumed botanical garden.
Private transfer to the airport and flight to Praslin. Second transfer to the port and ferry across to the island of La Digue. Three-night stay in chic and elegant accommodation, set in a dream location.
Even by Seychellois standards, the island is picture perfect. The beaches bordered by the lagoon are astonishing, and the mountains covered in coconut palms give the island an almost stereotypically exotic feel. A bike ride is an essential way to discover this authentic and completely preserved island.
In the itinerary - Glass-bottom kayaking in the lagoon. Anse Source D'Argent is rated as one of the top ten beaches in the world. Its granite boulders are spectacular, and even more so from the sea. The panoramic walk begins at the very beginning of the path leading to the famous beach. The local nature guide knows the reefs by heart; there's no need to dive to appreciate the depths, and the kayak serves as a perfect mobile aquarium. Spend time admiring the coral and schools of 'Dory'. You might even see a ray pass by. The voyage of exploration ends on one of the island's most secluded beaches, accessible only by boat, for a desert island stop. Depending on the currents, a speedboat can bring you back to the kayak base to avoid paddling against the current. Also on the itinerary is a one-day bike hire, complete with a picnic basket for lunch.
Things to see and do- Head to the Domaine de l'Union to meet giant tortoises / Visit Veuve Nature Reserve to see rare bird species / Take a boat trip around Coco Island / Hike to Nid d'Aigle, the highest point of the island.
Option - Half day on Grande Soeur Island, with a barbecue lunch.
Transfer to port and ferry to the island of Praslin. Pick up your second rental car and settle in for four nights in your new charming accommodation, close to the beautiful beach of Grande Anse. The hotel has everything you could possibly need - comfortable rooms, chlorine-free swimming pool, breakfasts served late - and a shuttle service to Anse Lazio beach.
The second island on the Seychelles is graced with the appearance of paradise. Its sandy coral beaches shaded with coconut palms are lapped by translucent waters that are perfect for bathing in. The island's natural richness also demands discovery, including Praslin's National Park and the Vallée de Mai Nature Reserve, which is a UNESCO World Heritage site containing many endemic species.
Option - A day on Curieuse Island.
Flight to Mahe, access to the Premium Lounge and international return flight home.
