Transportation: Island Hopping is Great!
  • Tip Rating:
  • 'Mode': AROUND
    Category: Airplane
    Getting TO/AROUND: Air Seychelles is an good Airline, we felt!

    To get around to the different islands, do island hopping with those small "hopper-planes". A great experience! We were estonished about the price - It was not that expensive we expected it to be. - being used to the relative high prices in hotels and restaurants etc.

    From Praslin to La Digue you can take the Ferry, which is nice to do.

    Getting around Praslin: Take the bus - good fun and ever so cheap and you'll be traveling with mostly Seychelles-people. Renting a car is a possibility but not necessary - in our opinion - at all!

    La Digue: Rent a bicycle! That's really worth it! (Approx. Eur 7,-/day - the more days, the cheaper it gets!) The ox cars lare definitely something outstanding. We took one, entering the island. It cost us a bomb! For about 400 m (our guesthouse was only very nearby, which we did not know at the time) we paid something like 10ý at the time! To be honest - it was not worth it really - but an experience!

    Mahe: Rent a car for about 3 days....! (or book an accommodatoin where a car is included!)

     Thank you so much, I read your sandflea story whilst I was scratching away - just got back from Praslin and these nasty bites appears, 20 on each leg and up my arm, also with an allergic reaction - its off to the doctor for me - thanks again!
