Wildlife holidays in Seychelles
Tell me about the Seychelles …
The Republic of the Seychelles is composed of a scattered archipelago of wonderful islands in the equatorial western Indian Ocean.
They hold an exceptional and diverse natural history, and the larger granitic islands have a rugged and often precipitous relief which is particularly beautiful.
Our Seychelles specialist recommends...
‘The Seychelles’ are
an idyllic backdrop for a wildlife holiday and we try to make the most of our
time on these islands. Endemic birds and flora provide plenty of interest as do
large variety of endemic insects and reptiles.
