Trip Overview:
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.
