Seychelles Holiday Packages
We're here to set up a package holiday for you to the Seychelles. Step 1 is to fill in the form below. You'll need to decide which island you want to stay on: (1) Mahé Island is the largest island, and is where most of the locals stay. It is where international flights land, and so offers the cheapest holiday. (2) Praslin Island is the 2nd largest island, and its Anse Lazio beach is rated in the top 25 beaches in the world, & has the Lemuria designer golf course on it. (3) La Digue is a quieter smaller island, more exclusive & offering greater scenic beauty than Praslin Island or Mahé.
When to go
The temperature varies little, from 24 to 31 degrees celsius, with it being slightly cooler in July and August. There is the least rain in June, July and August. Mahé Island has slightly more rainfall than the other islands. All in all, May to November are the best months to visit.

Outside the airport you'll find the buses of Masons Travel & other tour operators, as well as taxi ranks to just about everywhere on Mahé Island.
