This twin centre allows a brief introduction to Dubai followed by a chance to discover the nature, wildlife & landscapes of Seychelles, staying at the boutique Hotel L'Archipel on Praslin Island.
On this holiday of contrasts, you'll be able to see many of the man-made wonders of Dubai that make it such a talking point. However, Dubai's fascinating heritage also awaits discovery, including Deira and Bur Dubai districts beside Dubai Creek and the atmospheric gold and spice souks. The JW Marriott Marquis is ideally located in the downtown area of Dubai, so perfect for 'old Dubai' as well as seeing its multitude of new sights, including the Burj Khalifa, Dubai Opera, and 'out of town' attractions such as a dune safari. There's a huge choice of Dubai excursions that we can arrange for you.
In Seychelles, Hotel L'Archipel is a boutique hideaway and perfect for Seychelles island-hopping holiday. With cottages dotted around its picturesque tropical gardens, many with stunning views over the Cote d'Or bay, it's the ideal base for exploring the fascinating island of Praslin; from small coastal villages, walks and treks, stunning beaches at almost every turn, to the UNESCO World Heritage Site of the Vallee de Mai - the national park where the Coco de Mer nut grows - the largest seed in the world. Praslin is also convenient for visiting other smaller outlying islands, including fascinating La Digue as well as others which are national reserves and home to rare, endemic species of birds and giant tortoises
