Maldives Tours

maldives holiday, maldives travelThe Maldives has always and will always remain a unique destination for the fun loving tourist seeking an exotic holiday. Over a 1000 tiny islands are grouped into natural atolls that are protected by surrounding coral reefs. The islands are of pure white coral sand and are low-lying, the highest point on any given island being no more than a meter and a half above sea level! Buddhisim arrived here in 300 BC and was the main religion till 1153 AD when Islam started having an influence on the Royal family followed by conversions. Today, a common language (Dhivehi) and religion (Islam) have been two blessings that unite the people into a cohesive and peaceful society. Pride is taken in tradition though not at the expense of liberal and enlightened compassionate thinking.
