General pick‐up times from Hotels:
Experience 2 of the Seychelles' most beautiful islands in one day! The first island to be conquered is Praslin, where on arrival you will be transported to the enigmatic Vallée de Mai. This prehistoric forest is home to the extraordinary Coco de Mer, the double-lobed coconut with a rather mysterious shape. The Vallée de Mai was once said to be the site of the biblical Garden of Eden, where the Coco de Mer was the forbidden fruit. The guide will take you to discover this magical place of rare, endemic flora and fauna. After Vallée de Mai, we head to Cote D'or beach where you will have access to souvenir shops, followed by relaxation on the beach, swimming and sunbathing. From there, you will embark on a scenic drive to the Praslin jetty to board the boat for La Digue.
With its small population, La Digue remains the most unspoilt of the three most visited islands. On arrival on La Digue, you will be transferred by camionnette to a restaurant for lunch. After lunch, your visit to L'Union Estate begins, slowly revealing the surprises of deep-rooted farm life through the discovery of the copra mill, the giant turtle enclosure and the time-honoured plantation house. As you continue, you will be greeted by giant granite boulders on the pristine and world famous beach of Anse Source d’Argent, said to be the most photographed beach in the world. The opportunity for an invigorating swim in its azure waters awaits.
