Reise-Handbuch Reiseführer Seychellen

For the 5th edition of the DuMont Travel Guide, authors Philipp and Wolfgang Därr were once again intensively on-site. Whether in a luxury lodge or a charming guesthouse, the Seychelles offer all the ingredients for a paradise vacation, with nature reserves like the now accessible Fond Ferdinand Nature Reserve, dream beaches, and dive sites that rank among the best in the world.

From the island capital Victoria on the largest island Mahé to the dream beaches of the smaller neighboring islands Praslin and La Digue, as well as the tiny islands and atolls of the Outer Islands, all noteworthy places and bays are described. Each chapter features a double page "At a Glance" that highlights the best routes, active nature experiences, and special tips from the author.

Philipp and Wolfgang Därr have compiled selected accommodation and restaurant addresses for each location, marked on the maps, and provide shopping tips. Hikes reveal the most beautiful landscapes, from the tropical mountain forests in the interior of the granite islands with peaks reaching up to 900 meters high to former spice plantations and botanical gardens. The unique flora and fauna captivate not only hikers but also divers and snorkelers exploring the coral-rich diving paradises, including the Ste. Anne Marine National Park. Much interesting information about the Seychelles, including its history, present, and the daily lives of its people, can be found in the introductory country overview and the interspersed thematic pages.

For quick orientation, there is a detailed extra travel map at a scale of 1:50,000, an overview map with highlights, and 20 city maps, hiking, and route maps.
