OUR PICK OF ISLANDS<br />

Madeira<br />

THE FLOATING GARDEN ISLAND<br />

Immerse yourself into a sublime world of flowers in the Portuguese<br />

island known for its impressive emerald landscapes, bougainvillealined<br />

streets, and wildflower-filled valleys: Madeira. This floral<br />

extravaganza is best witnessed in the perfectly-manicured botanical<br />

gardens of Funchal, the capital, but you can just as easily enjoy them<br />

while horseback riding, hiking, and mountain biking, or by riding the<br />

famous cable car up to the clifftops. Pack a picnic and take a boat<br />

ride around Madeira exploring the many golden coves and bays,<br />

or venture into Funchal’s Old Town or nearby villages for a taste of<br />

history. Spend your sundowner sampling the local wine, followed up<br />

with a meal of fresh seafood.<br />

Praslin,<br />

Seychelles<br />

THE PREHISTORIC ISLAND<br />

Praslin is the Seychelles’ very own Garden of Eden. The moment<br />

you arrive you’re greeted by silky white sands that open out to the<br />

expanse of the azure Indian Ocean. From fabulous coral reefs to<br />

ancient sea turtles that nest on the beaches and giant tortoises,<br />

there's much to admire. Away from the blissful beach and the<br />

picture-perfect 18-hole championship golf course of Constance<br />

Lemuria, however, is a world of tumbling mountains and thick jungle<br />

that make up Praslin National Park. Venture into the UNESCO World<br />

Heritage site of the pristine palm forest Vallée de Mai, where you’ll<br />

unveil prehistoric endemic species, such as the giant coco de mer<br />

tree, which dates back over 300 years. Praslin truly is the tropical<br />

paradise you dreamed about.<br />
