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.
Mumbai is India’s financial, commercial and entertainment capital, offering a thrilling blend of non-stop energy and rich historical depth. This immense metropolis is a global city, essential to India's economic prowess and home to the renowned Bollywood film industry.
The city’s unique charm is rooted in its past as a collection of seven islands, which developed into a major port and modern urban centre. Explore South Mumbai to witness the stunning colonial architectural legacy. Marvel at the magnificent construction of the iconic Gateway of India, a basalt arch overlooking the Arabian Sea. Another must-see is the UNESCO World Heritage Site, Chhatrapati Shivaji Terminus. This exuberant Victorian Gothic building, blended with traditional Indian styles, remains one of Asia’s busiest railway hubs.
Further along Marine Drive, discover one of the world's largest collections of Art Deco buildings, showcasing the city’s early twentieth-century elegance. To enjoy a quiet moment, visit the serene Hanging Gardens on Malabar Hill or the vast green space of the Sanjay Gandhi National Park. You can also delve into the city’s culture at the National Gallery of Modern Art.
