A value tour to an intriguing island getaway, includes local transfers and hotels. The Republic of Seychelles comprises 115 islands occupying 1.4 million km² in the western Indian Ocean, almost on the equator. Of these 115 islands, 41 constitute the oldest granite islands on earth while a further 74 form the low-lying coral atolls and reef islands of the Outer Islands. It is an archipelago of legendary beauty, in pristine solitude, 480km from the east coast of Africa. Seychelles’ enviable climate is always warm and without extremes. In this tropical haven the temperature seldom drops below 24°C or rises above 32°C. All but the remotest southern islands lie comfortably outside the cyclone belt making Seychelles’ a year round destination for sun worshippers and beach lovers. Seychelles is famous for having some of the best beaches in the world, pristine and uncrowded. Some are framed by age-old granite boulders. Others offer powder-soft sands, turquoise waters and sublime opportunities for swimming, snorkeling or pure relaxation. You will also find proud national monuments, beautiful Creole houses, artists' studios, national reserves and marine parks, as well as breathtaking natural wonders above and beneath the waves.
