Our recommendation:

Spend the first 3 - 4 days in a Hotel in Mahé, get used to the temperature and discover the largest island of the Seychelles with one of the smallest Capital Cities in the world, which is located both exactly near the ocean and at the same time at the foot of the mountains. You have the opportunity to experience the culture of the Seychelles, as almost 90 % of the population of the Seychelles live in Mahé.

The following days you can explore the Seychelles from the most beautiful side, the sea. Spend 5 days / 4 nights on a sailing catamaran and visit a different island every day. You have the opportunity to reach the most beautiful snorkeling areas in the Seychelles, which can only be accessed with a yacht. (Snorkeling equipment included!)

To end your vacation we recommend a 3 - 4 day Hotel stay in Praslin. Praslin does not only have some of the most beautiful beaches in the world, such as the Anse Lazio, but it also offers famous attraction such as the Vallée de Mai with the endemic Seychelles coconut: the Coco de Mer.

Flights, Transfers as well as accommodation from a Guesthouse to a 6 Star Hotel can be organised, planned and booked with us.
