Itinerary

100% customisable for you

You will land in Mahe in the early morning and a member of our team will be waiting to meet you and assist you with the transfer to a light aircraft which will take you over to Praslin Island. After a long journey a driver will whisk you to your luxury hotel base for the next few nights. Head straight for lunch, where you can enjoy the beach views and maybe a first cocktail of the holiday.

The rest of the day is then yours to simply relax, catch up on some sleep on your sunlounger and then cool off in the pool or the turquoise ocean.

There is such a thing as too much of a good thing (and we wouldn't want that), so today leave Praslin behind in favour of a daytrip to neighbouring La Digue. A short 15-minute boat journey will take you over to little La Digue, which is entirely car-free. Because of this, all exploration has to be done by pedal power or ox cart, which just makes it all the more fun. Whichever way you choose to get around, hop between almost impossibly beautiful boulder-strewn beaches that look just like those you'll have seen in magazines - Seychelles is probably the ultimate #nofilter destination. Make sure you stop at Anse Source D'Argent, which is on the west side of La Digue. This is perhaps the most famous beach in the Seychelles and is incredibly beautiful. Union State Park, with its giant turtles, is right next door.

After a lazy day on La Digue take the ferry back to Praslin in time for sunset drinks and dinner. Our clued-up local Concierge can recommend the best places to eat on Praslin and book the best table in the house. As an alternative to visiting La Digue, go to Vallée De Mai Nature Reserve in search of the Coco de Mer palm and its rather risque looking seed pods.

After a few days on Praslin Island, today say goodbye to your beachside base and get ready to island hop to your next destination, an even more remote (and entirely private) island idyll. To get there you will need to fly back to Mahe, where a member of our team will escort you to another light aircraft for a second flight, direct to Denis Island. Though you do have to stop off in Mahe, both flights are nice and short so you'll have landed at your new home in good time for check in and then lunch.

This afternoon, spend some time exploring your new surroundings with a walk along the beach and a dip in the sea before dinner.
