Atlantic Islands
Welcome to the undiscovered Atlantic islands of Saint Helena and São Tomé and Príncipe. Prepare to immerse yourself in the rich tapestry of history, culture, and natural beauty that define these enchanting bucket list destinations.
Saint Helena Island, a remote gem in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean, beckons with its storied past as the final exile of Napoleon Bonaparte. Explore its rugged landscapes, where lush greenery meets dramatic cliffs, and uncover the island's intriguing history at landmarks such as Longwood House, Napoleon’s former residence. And visit Plantation House, the Governor’s residence to meet Jonathan, the world's oldest known living terrestrial animal, a giant tortoise believed to be over 190 years old
Venture to São Tomé and Príncipe, where pristine beaches fringe emerald forests teeming with biodiversity. Discover the legacy of Portuguese colonialism intertwined with vibrant Afro-Portuguese culture, manifested in the island's music, cuisine, and architecture.
