Praslin and La Digue Islands Description: This day is devoted to 2 of the most beautiful islands. Praslin is best known for its Vallee de Mai, a World Heritage Site re-known for its provocative shape nut and mystic powers. Praslin is also famous for its Black Parrot which is unique to the island. La Digue with its coconut trees towering over secluded coves, designer granite rocks line the shore and white sandy beaches stretch into the distance. Its charm is enhanced by the fact that the main transport for islanders and visitors is ox-cart or bicycle.Early breakfast at the hotel and transfer from the hotel by air-conditioned vehicle to the Inter Island Quay. Boarding of the catamaran “CAT COCOS” en-route to Praslin. Upon arrival on Praslin transfer to the Vallee de Mai Nature reserve, an extraordinary primeval forest, home to some 7,000 Coco de Mer palms and the rare Black Parrot. Drive along the coastal road past picture postcard coves and fishing villages to Cote ’Or where clients buy souvenirs.
