Full Day Victoria Highlights & Reef Safari with Coach Transfers, Guide & Lunch: Highly recommended as an ideal introduction to the Seychelles' way of life. The tour begins with a transfer from the hotel to the Botanical Gardens in the suburbs of Victoria.
The next stop is the colonial centre of "the world's smallest capital", Victoria. Highlights to visit are the court buildings, museum, post office, Little Ben clock-tower [twin of the one outside Victoria Station in London]. A turn around the corner takes one to the only set of traffic lights on Mahe Island, next to the 'Codevar' building where local crafts, including the renowned Kreol Or [Creole Gold] are on display for sale.A walk across Albert Street leads one to the focal point of the town, its colourful market where stalls of fresh fish, tropical fruits & vegetables, herbs & spices, are displayed in an abundance of fragrances.
A short walk to the coach next to the Roman Catholic cathedral [where the clock strikes twice], for the transfer to Victoria's *marina to board our glass-bottomed boat for the trip across the harbour to Round Island, with a stop midway to feed the fish and explore the underwater world from the comfort of our semi-submersible.
Round Island provides an enchanting opportunity to explore the rich are still trying to guess the secret recipe of the marinade - truly a gastronomic experience that leaves one wanting to come back for more. After lunch, guests are transferred to neighboring Cerf Island, where they have a choice of lazing in the sun, snorkeling or exploring.
