Seychelles, a stunning archipelago in the Indian Ocean, is celebrated for its natural beauty and rich cultural heritage. From pristine beaches to lush rainforests, the islands offer some of the world’s most breath-taking landscapes.
The vibrant Creole culture, shaped by African, French, and Indian influences, is evident in its festivals, music, and cuisine. Must-see sights include the UNESCO-listed Vallée de Mai, home to the famous Coco de Mer palm, and the unique granite formations of Anse Source d’Argent. Seychelles combines history, culture, and natural wonders, making it an ideal destination for both relaxation and adventure.
Meanwhile, IndiGo recently started deploying its leased B787-9 aircraft on Delhi-Bangkok flights.
