Preiswerte Kombination: Seychellen & Mauritius

About the destination: Located in the Indian Ocean, the Seychelles archipelago has transitioned over four centuries from a pirate sanctuary to a dream destination for millions of travelers. Its 115 islands - with only thirty inhabited - have everything to adore: year-round sunshine, a tropical climate, coral beaches, unique flora, and a rich marine life. The must-see route through this paradise includes visits to Mahé, Praslin, and La Digue, the islands that offer more services and a greater variety of attractions. The journey begins on the island of Mahé, the largest and only island in the Seychelles. Just seven miles from Victoria, the capital, you'll have your first interaction with the friendly locals, whose features reflect a blend of African, Chinese, Indian, and European heritage. This ethnic diversity has resulted in a rich culinary, musical, architectural, and artistic culture filled with nuances and abundant pirate legends. Locals love to share tales of the adventures of John Taylor, Jean François Hodoul - whose 1804 Château Mamelles was one of his two residences on Mahé - and other buccaneers who hid treasures of jewels and gold coins somewhere in the archipelago. The last known treasure is still believed to be near the beach of Bel Ombre in Mahé. Several bus lines traverse the island, with the small Victoria station serving as both the starting and ending point. Riding in these basic vehicles provides a great opportunity to share a seat with locals heading to the Victoria market, workers, and students returning home at the end of the day. After a few miles on the bus, travelers quickly learn that they must shout "devant!" for the driver to stop.
