About this package
Who the Gulhi and Vahmaafushi Escape is for
Best for couples and families who want adventure and time to unwind.
Five nights gives you room to breathe. The Escape mixes three memorable days out with a free day to do nothing at all, which on Gulhi usually means the beach, the I Love Gulhi swing and a long lunch.
You snorkel with sea turtles and play on a lagoon sandbank while a drone films the moment, go out by boat to look for spinner dolphins, then spend half a day on lively Maafushi before riding the Vahmaafushi zipline and sitting down to dinner at sunset.
All taxes are included, and you stay at Tropic Tree Maldives with breakfast daily or half board. The package needs a minimum of two guests.
