Islands of the Indian Ocean

Day 1

Your Door to Door service will transfer you to
London for your overnight flight to Mauritius

During your stay

Port Louis, Mauritius. Sample the cultural diversity
of the Mauritian way of life, from tea tasting in the
beautiful Chinese Pagoda, to exploring the local
Stamp Museum and the colourful central market.
Outside the city you’ll find the stunning
Pamplemousses Botanical Garden and the Casela
Nature Park. Alternatively, a tour of the south of
the island showcases breathtaking natural wonders,
including the Trou-aux-Cerfs Volcano and the
‘Seven Coloured Earth’ sand dunes.
Praslin Island & Victoria, Mahe, Seychelles. With
almost two days on Praslin Island and a full day on
Mahé, there’s time to tick off the ‘must-do’
experiences from your list. Explore the tropical
forest of Vallée de Mai, home to huge Coco de Mer
nuts and rare Black Parrots, encounter the famous
giant land tortoises and take your pick from the
quintessential Seychelles beaches, boasting white
sand lapped by crystal-clear waters. Sandwiched
between these calls is an unforgettable, magical
sailing past Silhouette Island at sunset.

During your stay.

Mamoudzou, Mayotte, Comoros. The marvels of
Mayotte are yours to experience during a stop at
Mamoudzou, the French island’s sprawling capital.
Don’t miss the chance to go snorkelling in the
Indian Ocean’s largest lagoon, it’s home to over
250 different species of hard coral and is teeming
with a wide variety of marine life. Or perhaps
venture deep into the island’s lush landscapes,
scaling the rolling peaks for incredible vistas.
Helt-Ville, Nosy Be & Diego Suarez, Madagascar.
Two unforgettable days follow as Boudicca arrives
at the natural wonderland of Madagascar, where
there will be numerous chances to spot fascinating
wildlife, such as lemurs, chameleons and geckos.
First port of call is Hell-Ville, which is perfectly
placed for tours to Nosy Be’s tropical rainforests.
The 740-hectare Lokobe National Park is also well
worth a visit, while a trip to the island of Nosy
Komba offers the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to
spend time with lemurs in their natural habitat.
Next is Diego Suarez, where tours to the impressive
Amber Mountain National Park are not to be
missed.
Port Reunion, Reunion Island. A republic of France,
Reunion is like a tropical version of the French
Riviera, with gourmet restaurants, sandy beaches
and chic boutiques. An island that begs to be
explored, Reunion’s lush landscapes and vast
mountain ranges provide some incredible views
and picture opportunities.
5 days at sea.
