What will you experience on this East Africa Safari?
Mahe
As the largest island in the Seychelles, Mahé is both the gateway to the archipelago and a rewarding destination in its own right. Home to the international airport, lush mountain interiors, and some of the country’s most beautiful beaches, Mahé offers an ideal introduction to island life.

La Digue
Best known for its dramatic granite boulders and powder-soft beaches, La Digue is one of the most iconic islands in the Seychelles. Often regarded as the most photogenic island in the archipelago, La Digue delivers postcard-perfect scenery at every turn.
