The Seychelles

This tour is ideal for the adventurous seeking to explore La Digue Island on their own and includes return coach transfers to the hotel and Praslin Jetty, a ferry crossing at 09h00 to La Digue, where tourists are greeted by our island representative for a short briefing on the most popular sites, best routes and lunch venues, before our guide hands over a map and the bicycles for the day’s adventure.

The tour begins with a stop in the colonial centre of “the world’s smallest capital”, Victoria. Highlights to visit are the court buildings, museum, post office, Clock-tower. A turn around the corner takes one to the ‘Codevar’ building where local crafts, including the renowned Kreol are on display for sale. A walk across Albert Street leads one to the focal point of the town, its colourful market where stalls of fresh fish, tropical fruits & vegetables, herbs & spices, are displayed in an abundance of fragrances.

As far as bucket lists go, I think we can all agree that showering under a waterfall in the Seychelles is a pretty epic goal to tick off. Well Mahé may be about to make all of your holiday dreams come true.

Trek through the gorgeous rainforests and the closer you get, the louder you’ll hear the alluring waters calling to you, teasing their proximity. The area is very accessible and easy to find, so no need to worry about losing your way, just plunge in and experience serenity. Pictures probably can’t do this breath-taking view justice, but just imagine the Instagram envy you’ll inspire.

Sure, Pirates of the Caribbean was great, but what about the Pirates of the Seychelles? Dive into an ocean populated with mysterious sunken shipwrecks and hidden caves; there’s a whole underwater world just waiting to be discovered. Rumour has it that there is ancient lost treasure hiding somewhere off the shores…

Alternatively, explore the multitude of reefs surrounding the islands. Go on your very own mission to find Nemo, and an array of other marine creatures. From moray eels to turtles, captivating swordfish to rare and colossal whale sharks – there is a unique and awe-inspiring diving excursion to experience no matter which site you choose.

What’s better than the beauty of powder-soft, pure white sands, azure and crystal-blue sea views, lazy seaside breezes rustling through gloriously green, picture-perfect tropical palm trees? Observing all that flawless scenery from an uninterrupted bird’s-eye view, that’s what.

Take off and witness the Seychelles like never before. Glimpse the vast multihued ocean, see the sheer colossal length and incredible composition of the surrounding atolls and be blown away by the absolute perfection of these islands. We guarantee you’ll never want to come back down from this high.

Explorers rejoice! The Seychelles is comprised of 115 different islands, and each and every one of them is ready for discovery.

Hop on a yacht or boat, head out to the crystal-clear waters of the mesmerising lagoons and explore each stunning island that the Seychelles has to offer. Feel the warm breeze and the unparalleled sunshine dance over your skin as you discover new utopias. From rare and diverse wildlife to near-mythical waterfalls, lush tropical rainforests to exotic gardens, each island will be like travelling to an entirely new world. The only thing these atolls have in common is that they’ll each leave you utterly speechless.

For the ultimate snorkelling experience, or a blissful and tranquil day on diamond-white powder-soft sand beaches, we cannot recommend a trip to La Digue in the Seychelles enough.

This stunning island is inconceivable until you feast upon it with your own eyes – and even then you'll question its reality! Home to adorable turtles, as well as vibrant corals and multi-coloured tropical fish, snorkelling anywhere else will be dull by comparison once you've done it here. When you've snorkelled to your heart's content, lay and dry out in the radiant Seychelloise sunshine on the golden shores for a true taste of paradise.
