Seychelles Airport taxi price
The taxis available at Seychelles Airport use meters to calculate the cost of their services. This means that the further you travel on the island, the more expensive your taxi fare will be. There may also be extra charges for things such as the number of passengers, large luggage items, and pets. You can expect Seychelles Airport taxi fares to have a base of €7.30 (SCR 106) and a price per km of €5.48 (SCR 80).
For example, taking a taxi 9km from Seychelles Airport to the city of Victoria will cost €20 (SCR 155). A slightly longer journey, such as traveling to a resort on the Vista do Mar coast, will cost €50 (SCR 780) and will take 30 minutes.

Where is the Seychelles Airport taxi rank?
Seychelles International Airport has two terminals: the Domestic Terminal and the International Terminal. Each one has a dedicated Seychelles Airport taxi rank that is open 24/7. After collecting your baggage, you will follow signs for “Ground Transportation and Taxis”. Once you exit the Arrivals Hall, you will see a long line of taxis waiting at the rank. During peak travel times, especially during the summer months, you may have up to a 15-minute wait for an available taxi.
To avoid these frustrating wait times and to enjoy a personalized meet-and-greet inside the airport, why not book your Seychelles Airport taxi service with a trusted company such as Welcome Pickups?

Getting from Seychelles Airport to your hotel
As Seychelles is a small island, the public transport network is very limited and somewhat unreliable, especially if you are traveling during off-season. To avoid long wait times and multiple changes, we suggest taking one of the Seychelles Airport taxis to your hotel.
Seychelles Airport taxis are fast, reliable, and offer direct door-to-door services, so you’re not left dragging heavy luggage through busy city streets. You will be able to relax in the back of a private, air-conditioned vehicle while your driver expertly navigates the local streets to your hotel.
