Itinerary

  • Port Victoria, Mahé Island... spend a night in port so you can experience the Creole nightlife.
  • Curieuse Island... is home to giant Aldabra tortoises, roaming free. There's also a marine national park with vibrant coral reefs.
  • Aridé Island... access is usually limited to researchers and conservationists. The biodiversity you'll witness is incredibly well-preserved.
  • Praslin Island... see some of the region's most stunning beaches, including the legendary Cote d'Or.
  • Bird Island... is a tiny island under one square kilometre. It is named for its rare birdlife: sooty terns, fairy terns, common noddies, and more.
  • Cousin Island...  is a breeding ground for the endangered Seychelles Warbler, alongside other rare birdlife.
  • La Digue Island... a more populated island, famous for its unique transport system run by ox cart. 
  • Grande Soeur Island... keep working on your tan, or explore the island on a scenic guided hike.
  • Moyenne Island... is one of the smaller islands in the archipelago. Since the 1970s, it has been a flora and fauna reserve.

Finally, return to Port Victoria to fly back to the UK.

About the ship
Swan Hellenic is a British cruise line that has pioneered expedition cruising since the 1950s. It is dedicated to taking passengers to remote, unexplored regions. SH Diana carries just 192 passengers, and calls at the world's most remote ports.

There are floor-to-ceiling windows in most public areas. A real highlight is the heated infinity pool at the rear. Food and drink is included 24/7, with Michelin-designed menus. There's also a world-class cellar of classic vintages, natural wines, premium spirits, and craft beers.

Guests are attended by 120 crew, so the standard of service is exemplary. Experts at the top of their fields accompany each voyage, with lectures every day.
