The Indian Ocean is home to some of the world’s most beautiful islands, with crystal clear waters, white sand beaches and vibrant coral reefs. But there is much more to this region than just beaches. A multi centre holiday allows you to make the most of your long haul trip by combining paradise islands with other fascinating destinations. You might pair the culture and wildlife of Sri Lanka with a luxury Maldives escape, or break up the long flight with a stop in the Middle East, where you can enjoy world class entertainment in ultra modern cities. Whatever you choose for your itinerary, an Indian Ocean multi centre offers the perfect blend of relaxation and adventure.
If you love the idea of idyllic beaches but want a little more adventure, a multi centre holiday gives you the chance to combine two or three paradise islands and tick more destinations off your bucket list. For those who want to blend wildlife with relaxation, Sri Lanka is the perfect place to start before heading to your chosen island retreat. Or, if you are dreaming of a city and beach twin centre, the possibilities are endless, with Europe, the Middle East and the Far East all offering exciting cities to pair with your Indian Ocean escape. However you want to travel, we can help design a tailor made itinerary that is perfect for you.
The Indian Ocean offers far more than just beaches. In Sri Lanka you can spot elephants and leopards on safari, explore ancient temples and soak up the island’s rich culture. In the Maldives you can spend your days on powder soft sands or enjoy world class diving and water sports. Mauritius and the Seychelles not only deliver perfect beaches but also a taste of local culture. Then there’s all the other countries you can combine with the Indian Ocean. With so much variety, an Indian Ocean multi centre holiday can be as adventurous or as relaxing as you choose.
The region covers a wide area, so the best months to visit depends on where you are heading, especially Sri Lanka which varies down to which coast your visiting, so the ideal time comes down to your itinerary. Generally, December to April brings warm, dry weather to many islands, while May to November can be wetter but often better value. However, speak to our team and we can guide you to the best option for your trip.
The choice is almost endless. Popular options include Dubai and Abu Dhabi, which work perfectly as stopovers en route to the islands. If you are looking to tick off a Far East bucket list destination, Hong Kong, Singapore, and Bangkok are also favourites. Many European cities make great combinations too, such as Amsterdam, Paris, or Vienna. Whatever your interests, we can help design a multi centre holiday tailored to you.

First class service with Dave Felton. He booked our Silverseas cruise within the day. Nothing was too much trouble. He is always our go to travel agent. Thank you
Just booked the ABC islands with Rachel. Very straightforward and helpful.
best ever booking experience, came straight back with prices and details. If the holiday is as good we'll be back,
We have been booking our holidays through Nick at Eshores for quite a few years now and our trips have always been very well organised, Nicks attention to detail is spot on, he knows what types of locations we love, and we trust his opinions and suggestions. That’s the reason we’ve just booked two more…
Many thanks again to Kadie for sorting our holiday. This is the second time and very happy to return for help again after the totally amazing trip she arranged to Vietnam. One small blip on accommodation at one resort last time but eShores staff responded quickly and everything was easily sorted. Highly recommend eShores to…
This is the second time using e-Shores and we can't recommend them highly enough. Emily, who we've worked with on both occasions, is extremely professional, knowledgeable, diligent and has made great suggestions. The process of getting quotes, booking and making payments has been painless and I'd say we will be regular cuatomers going forward.
Amazing service
We travelled with eShores to Andalucia last year, and Emily did an amazing job of compiling an itinerary with good but affordable hotels - we would heartily recommend each one that she chose for us, and all the arrangements between cities worked beautifully. This year we have gone back to her for another holiday and…
This is my second holiday with eshore. The service I received was excellent. Kelly was very professional, understood all my requirements and booked a fantastic holiday for us. It was a very pleasant experience dealing with Kelly and definitely recommend friends to book holidays with her. A real 5 star service.
As always, our go-to girl came through with a fab itinerary for our very last minute booking to USA. Kadie arranged another 3 city break and made sure everything fitted in with our requirements. Always use eShores for our bespoke long distance travels and they never fail to provide excellent service.
eShores is a fantastic company for crafting tailor made itineraries. I have just booked my fourth trip with them, this time to Colombia. Gavin was exceptionally helpful and nothing was too much trouble in meeting my wishes even though it requred a lot of back and forth adjustments. If this is anything like my previous…
Matt Got us everything we wanted for our USA trip
I have yet to take the holiday so I can't comment on the hotels and transport provided etc but Nick was very helpful with the booking. Despite me asking numerous questions he sorted out exactly what I asked for within my budget. Thank you
So far our experience with eShores has been great. Of course the real test will be when we are on holiday so hopefully this will continue :)
Nick did exactly what I asked for, was prompt and helpful. Couldn't have asked for anything more.
We had been recommended eshores by a friend who had holidayed in Croatia. We phoned and then used email to communicate with Chris Eaves who made the whole process very easy. He adjusted the holiday to exactly how we wanted it and was very speedy in his replies. We are hoping the holiday goes as…
The trip has been planned with our requirements fulfilled and also given options to change where we wanted. Looking forward to the trip and hope that all goes as smoothly as the booking side
So this is my second time using eshores and I won’t be going anywhere else to book my future holidays. I gave Claire a horrible job in finding what I needed and kept changing the brief but she persevered and found me the best holiday. I’m going in September and can’t wait. I’ll be back…
Excellent prompt service from Michelle. Hotels she suggested all look amazing and the itinerary for the four areas of Italy looked perfectly planned .
