Overview

See Seychelles from the water and from the ground. This 9-night trip pairs a cruise leg with land nights across Mahé · Praslin · La Digue, so you wake up in a new port without repacking, and still get proper time ashore at Anse Source d’Argent beach and Vallée de Mai (Praslin). Cabin, excursions and port transfers are all arranged.

Apr – May · Oct – Nov is the sweet spot for Seychelles (Africa), and we plan departures from Surat around it — flights via Mumbai or Ahmedabad, 4★ hotel + cruise cabin hotels locked in writing, and this itinerary from ₹1,80,999 per person on twin sharing.

Explera's Surat desk runs the whole journey end to end — flights, stays, transfers, guided sightseeing, Seychelles visa assistance and insurance — with a written day-by-day plan before you pay and a human on call 24/7 while you travel. Every departure is fully customisable to your dates, budget and travellers.

Mahé was our first big trip and Explera made it stress-free — visa guidance, forex tips, a sensible day plan and a driver who knew the area. Came back with amazing memories and zero complaints.

★★★★★
Fantastic trip with friends. The Mahé package was customised to our dates and budget, the 4★ hotel + cruise cabin were lovely, and they even rebooked one activity when the weather changed. Five stars.

Great value for a 9-night Mahé trip. Clear communication before travel, GST invoice for our records, and genuine 24/7 support. This is how a holiday should be planned.
