Cruising the Seychelles Islands
Overview
Highlights
- It’s no exaggeration to say the beaches here are some of the most beautiful in the world. our small ship allows us to drop anchor beside uninhabited islands and swim in bays the big cruise liners can’t reach.
- We’ll make a stop at the stunning anse source d’argent on la dique – it’s consistently rated as one of the best beaches in the world.
- While bigger cruise liners have to moor out at sea and commute into shore via tender, we’ll drop anchor in the middle of port towns like mahe, and la digue. you can hop on or off the boat as you please.
- The seychelles are mainly known for their resorts, but this trip visits far-flung islands like aride. short distances between the islands also mean less time cruising, usually for no more than 3-4 hours at a stretch.
- Your boat comes fully equipped with kayaks and snorkelling equipment to take advantage of the crystal clear waters.

Tour Operator
It’s been more than 36 years since our first small group set out to discover Nepal. It’s this heritage and our reputation that keeps travellers coming back time and time again.
We appeal to the well-travelled, discerning traveller. The one who chooses value over price, and wants to immerse themselves in a place instead of just ticking landmarks off a bucket list. The type of person who would rather stay in a family run B&B built in a 16th century Venetian convent than a forgettable hotel. We’re for travellers who want inclusions along the way instead of fiddling around for loose change.
Almost 20 years ago, Peregrine led an industry revolution by solely employing locally born leaders. This innovative approach gives our travellers a deeper insight into the countries they visit. Doorways are opened and a true understanding of the place is fostered.
At Peregrine, we travel in intimate groups and take the time to get under the skin of a destination. Of course we all want to see the Taj Mahal in India. But imagine then heading to a remote Rajasthani village and learning about rural life while in the company of locals. Seeing the famous sites is a must, but it’s often the memory of wandering through a small village or sharing dinner with a local family that will leave a lasting impact.
We promise to share our knowledge and expertise with you, and ensure you will come home with stories you will tell for years to come.
