FIRST-CLASS | TAILOR-MADE: Escape to the romantic islands of the Seychelles and split time between two island paradises. Stay at beachside resorts on the islands of Mahe and Praslin and spend your time enjoying the white-sand beaches, crystal-clear waters, and romantic atmosphere.
This 9-day Seychelles vacation takes you to beachside resorts on the islands of Mahe and Praslin. It features first-class accommodations.
Your journey begins on Mahe, the largest of the islands of the Seychelles. Connect to Carana Beach, a 4-star resort outside the capital, Victoria. Staying in one of the resort’s 40 chalets, you’ll enjoy dramatic natural surroundings, with easy access to white-sand beaches, rocky granite pillars, and lush jungle. You’ll have three full days at leisure on Mahe to enjoy the beach and the natural landscape. Head on a catamaran cruise out onto the Indian Ocean, go deep sea fishing, or explore the mountains of the mainland. Relax in the beachfront swimming pool, recharge in the Spa & Wellness centre, and dine on delicious meals made from ingredients grown on the hotel’s family-owned farm. And of course, enjoy the pristine white-sand beaches of your resort, swimming, suntanning, and snorkelling to your heart’s content.
Connect to Praslin, the second-largest island of the Seychelles, known for its sleepier atmosphere and gorgeous landscape. Staying at Paradise Sun, a 4-star beachside resort on the island’s northeastern coast, you’ll have another three full days of leisure at the beach. Enjoy your French-Creole-style accommodations and the postcard beauty of the surrounding beaches and jungle. Spend your time however you wish. Head on a snorkelling excursion to coral gardens to share the waters with friendly turtles and rays. Unwind in the resort’s spa and relax on the hotel’s 2km stretch of powdery white-sand beach. Head through the mainland to see giant tortoises or go birdwatching in the Vallee de Mai.
At the end of your stay, connect back to Mahe for onward travels.

Full Day Reef Safari
Explore the wonders of the St. Anne National Marine Park on this exciting full-day excursion, jam-packed with fun-filled activities.
Set sail aboard Anahita as you head off to discover Mahe's inner islands. Next, hop aboard a semi-submersible vessel as you dip below the waves to explore the depths of the Marine Park. Enjoy watching the tropical fish surrounding the boat and then get up close and personal with the creatures that inhabit the park's colorful coral gardens for a refreshing snorkel or swim.
Be treated to lunch and musical entertainment before heading ashore Moyenne Island. Visit the island on-foot as you get to meet the giant tortoises that freely roam here, as well as visit old ruins and pirate graves - or simply relax on the island's private beach. The day ends with a tropical cocktail and a leisurely cruise around the Marine Park before returning to Mahe.

Half Day Vallee De Mai
Visit Praslin's Vallee de Mai, a UNESCO World Heritage site - an untouched biosphere like none other on Earth.
Here giant palms rustle overhead as you meander through this ancient forest filled with many endemic species of palm and rare fauna, such as the Seychelles Black Parrot, the tiger chameleon and the diminutive Seychelles tree frog.
Vallee de Mai is also home to the Coco de Mer palm; the seed is the largest nut in the world and has been treasured as a collectible and mystical aphrodisiac for centuries. Let our guides unravel the secrets of this magical forest to you.
It was once believed - in the distant lands where these giant seeds would wash ashore - that the Coco de Mer originated from a sacred forest under the sea. Today, we know better, and Vallee de Mai - believed by some to be the original site of the Garden of Eden - is where these magnificent palms grow.
