Seychelles International Airport is your welcoming gateway as you depart from the paradise island of Mahé. This warm and friendly airport is located approximately 12 kilometres southeast of the capital and offers attentive staff dedicated to making your journey stress-free.
When considering transport to the airport, a taxi is the easiest option; however, be mindful of potential night-time surcharges if you have an evening flight. Alternatively, buses run regularly every 20-30 minutes from the capital’s centre, or you may utilise the limousine service offered by many hotels for VIP guests. Please note that parking is extremely limited, so using public transport or taxis is the most practical solution.
Upon arrival, head to the main terminal's Departure hall for check-in. Although the airport is relatively small, security checks are thorough and lengthy, so allow yourself about one to one and a half hours to complete both check-in and customs clearance. For your comfort, facilities are adequate, including Wi-Fi throughout the terminal. You can enjoy light snacks and beverages from the coffee bars, or a meal from the restaurant which serves food until the early evening. Remember to avoid taking photographs while at the airport due to the operational military base situated near the runway.
Beirut is a captivating Mediterranean city that successfully blends its ancient history with a powerful modern vitality.
You will quickly discover why this vibrant Lebanese capital, often called the ‘Paris of the Middle East,’ is celebrated for its unique character. Explore the fashionable Verdun shopping district or enjoy the relaxed atmosphere along the seafront in Ain El Mraiseh. History surrounds you; the city’s suburbs are dotted with fascinating remnants of the Hellenistic, Roman and Ottoman eras, showcasing Beirut’s deep cultural foundations.
Venture beyond the city limits to discover natural wonders like the magnificent Jeita Grotto, a stunning labyrinth of crystallised caves just north of the city. Back in the Downtown district, the iconic Place de l'Etoile Nejmeh Square forms the spiritual core of the capital. For a quieter moment, find one of the city's abundant green parks, which frequently host open-air festivals and cultural shows throughout the year. No visit is complete without experiencing the breathtaking view of the Mediterranean sunset over the striking Pigeon Rocks.
