Mahé Transportation Tips by Muya

Getting TO/AROUND: The best way to get to Mahé, of course is with an airplane... As there is no connection from Brussels to the Seychelles, we took it in Paris, Charles de Gaulle Airport. The flight lasts a bit more than 9 hours. You may find it a bit long, especially if you fly at night and can't find a good position to sleep... but you can always listen to creole music, and already taste the atmosphere of the Seychelles ;-) If you fly during the day, look outside the window, you can see the pyramids of Egypt if you are lucky : -) And the crew is really nice too, make you feel you already are in the island !
A flight to the Seychelles is usually very expensive, around 1000 euros...But if you look on the internet, you'll find less expensive solutions. We had an opportunity of flight and hotel included almost for the price of the plane ticket...

Getting TO/AROUND: Tatas are old indian busses which take you almost everywhere around Mahé for 3 rupees only (5 rupees at 8 pm). It's a funny way to travel around, especially when the tata is full of talkative locals... it's delightful to hear them laugh and talk to each other in creole ! But the last busses leave around 8 pm, so you better check the schedules, because cabs are really expensive in the Seychelles !

Getting TO/AROUND: We decided to rent a car for a day with our new friends and share the costs, which was a great thing, because we had a lot of fun together !
And again we were lucky... The day we went to visit them on Sainte Anne Island, we couldn't find our way to the shuttle...we were totally lost, and entered a shop to ask our way. There was this guy there who kindly offered to drive us to the shuttle harbour. Another sign of the Seselwa's kindness !
We told him about renting a car and he appeared to be in the business. So he made us a price for a jeep...
Well, if you need a car on Mahé, ask Patrick
