Sail across the Indian Ocean via islands of unimaginable beauty. After two days at sea getting into the swing of cruise life, you’ll enter the dreamy world of the Seychelles: Mahé, for a first glimpse of the famous smooth granite boulders strewn like giant marbles across its beaches; then glamorous sister Praslin, one of only two places where the Coco de Mer fruit grows; and peaceful little La Digue for an authentic taste of Seychellois life. Another two sea days take us to the Maldives, an impossibly beautiful necklace of coral islands beloved by scuba divers, where we overnight at Malé, the capital. Onwards to Colombo, the Sri Lankan capital, to browse its boutiques and galleries, then we arrive in India, at Mormugao, still guarded by its 17th-century fortress, and make for our final stop, the 24-hour city of Mumbai.

Mombasa, Kenya picture
As a result of being a trading hub for hundreds of years, enchanting Mombasa is a vibrant coastal city boasting a unique blend of Indian, Arabian, and African cultures. The city's diverse culture is reflected in its cuisine, music, and traditions. Swahili culture plays a significant role in shaping the city's identity, and visitors can experience its vibrant street markets, art galleries, and traditional music and dance. Take a trip to the the Old Town, the most exotic part of Mombasa. Along its narrow, cobblestone streets you'll find many mosques; you might even hear the haunting sound of the faithful being called to prayer. On the pier, vendors offer a variety of arts and crafts like Zanzibar-styled chests and carved soapstone. A swatch of the vividly printed African fabrics worn by local women are also popular keepsakes. Beyond the city, Mombasa serves as a gateway to popular tourist destinations like Diani Beach, Tsavo National Park, and the Kenyan coast's stunning marine life.

Praslin, Seychelles picture
When it comes to tropical perfection, it would be hard to beat Praslin. From the island's legendary beaches, such as Anse Lazio and Anse Georgette, to the rich marine life, to the surprising cultural diversity, this island within the Seychelles archipelago holds a myriad of special qualities. Perhaps Praslin is best known as home to the Vallée de Mai, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and the only place where the rare Coco de Mer palm grows naturally. Its distinctive double coconut is the largest seed in the plant kingdom and has inspired legends and myths for centuries, while still being used in Ayurvedic medicine for its health benefits. Venture into the island's forest for a chance to see the trees, but keep your binoculars ready! Praslin is home to the Seychelles black parrot, a must-see for any birder. Praslin's Creole heritage is rich and visible in its culture, cuisine, and way of life. Exploring local markets and indulging in Creole flavors from local street food stalls and restaurants adds an authentic and immersive dimension to your island experience.

La Digue, Seychelles picture
Renowned for its unspoiled beauty and pristine beaches, La Digue is a breathtaking island paradise in the Seychelles. Famous for Anse Source d'Argent, one of the world's most photographed beaches, it offers stunning granite boulders, turquoise waters, and lush tropical vegetation. Time seemingly slows down on this tranquil island, where bicycle rides through quaint villages and encounters with giant tortoises create unforgettable memories of Seychellois bliss. In fact, at just 3 miles long and 2 miles wide, it's one of the samllest islands in the Seychelles, and the laid back vibe promotes relaxing on the beach. However, if you do find yourself needing a break from the sand and sun, head to the Veuve Reserve, considered to be the last refuge of the black paradise flycatcher or, what the locals call, the Widow Bird.

As the political and cultural heart, the city, homes almost a third of the archipelago's population and introduces visitors to a vibrant urban center that blends tradition and modernity. But that's not to say that Malé doesn't have its fair share of pristine beaches and turquoise waters. The city recently added an artificial beach of white sands and shallow waters which creates an ideal environment for swimming. For those who are willing to travel a little out of the capital, the Maldives' ubiquitous tropical havens are just a short boat ride away.
