Come find your island paradise with Seychelles, an archipelago off the Somali sea in East Africa. These islands were once host to pirates and Arab merchants but are now home to beautiful blue waters, soft sandy beaches, rare plants and exotic birds found nowhere else in the world. Let this tranquil atmosphere sweep you away as you hop between the two largest islands in the archipelago. Spend four days on Praslin Island, the second largest island in Seychelles. Walk or bike your way around the island as you discover secluded beaches and vast national parks home to the UNESCO world heritage site Vallée de Mai, or simply relax by the pool and enjoy a spa day at your resort. Enjoy a further six days on Mahe, the largest island in Seychelles where you will experience the capital Victoria, interact with the famous plant life on the island and explore the cultural history of Seychelles.
