Long-term car rental is an an ideal and extremely practical solution for all business and individual users who want to have top-quality vehicles at their disposal, but without additional worries about the costs of vehicle maintenance and registration.
Fast and clear communication. Easy pick up and drop off. No hidden fees or any dodgy techniques. Car was amazing in terms of engine and reliability. We got almost new car in perfect condition and clean. It was fun to drive ?? Thank you guys.
Staff was super friendly with emphasis to Deen. He was waiting for us on time after our arrival and he was flexible and punctual for the drop off of the car. He reaches you in advance via WhatsApp. The car pick up and return was very fast. Car was in excellent condition. We were lucky to get an upgrade during your rental. Certainly I recommend Doffay Car Rental for Seychelles, from the beginning to the end very smooth process.
Everything was perfect... from the first contact through Whatsapp to organize the meeting, the arrival with the car delivered (by Lakee who gave us some recommendations) just in front of the Arrival Terminal, the car was in perfect state and clean. We ran about 200 kms without any problem. Returning the car was as easy as the arrival, with Lakee waiting for us at 6AM in front of the terminal again. I highly recommend if you want an easy and great car rental!! :)
Doffay car Rental is one of the leading car agencies when it comes to car rental and transfer services in Seychelles, with many years of experience in this field, we are now the only car rental company that operates both on Mahe island and Praslin Island.

So we waited for a good 10 minutes, figuring maybe the person was on a bathroom break. There were several phone numbers posted on a handwritten note hanging from the side of the counter, so we called all of them. Repeatedly. No one picked up.
He then took us out to the car. Holy cow. Did it just get t-boned on both sides in the parking lot? Ford and I looked at one another, and the guy started filling out that little form with the picture of the car where they mark any damage, so that you agree on the condition in which the car was received. He basically looked like a kid with a coloring book, because he colored in the whole thing.
All of the rental agencies in Seychelles are franchise, not corporate owned. I was there earlier this year in a similar situation on a Dollar rental. My flight got in an hour late and the guy had already gone home. Calling various numbers on the signs with the help of the airport information desk did eventually find him and he came back to the airport. The booths are only staffed around major flight arrival and...

My flight got in an hour late and the guy had already gone home. Calling various numbers on the signs with the help of the airport information desk did eventually find him and he came back to the airport. The booths are only staffed around major flight arrival and departure times, and with confirmed rentals, so don't expect to turn up and find something.
@Lucky, I was actually in the Seychelles at the same time that you were, and I also made a reservation with Avis. The experience was terrible, as I was traveling with an infant (1-year old) and the "car seat" that they provided was in very poor condition. The tires were bald and the interior was a mess. The fuel gauge was just a hair over half full when I picked it up. I returned the...

The fuel gauge was just a hair over half full when I picked it up. I returned the car with the same amount of gas and the guy told me that it had 3/4 tank when I picked it up and tried to charge me for gas.
Around 3 years ago, when I attempted to pick up my car in Mahe (I believe it was Avis) they didn't have a magnetic card swipe - just the old manual slide type that takes an imprint of your card. The attendant didnt know what to do with my Sapphire card, which , of course, doesnt have raised numbers! I really needed the insurance that comes with that card, so I opted to instead take...
Around 3 years ago, when I attempted to pick up my car in Mahe (I believe it was Avis) they didn't have a magnetic card swipe - just the old manual slide type that takes an imprint of your card. The attendant didnt know what to do with my Sapphire card, which , of course, doesnt have raised numbers! I really needed the insurance that comes with that card, so I opted to instead take a taxi to the hotel and nix the car rental. A wise choice as driving can be treacherous there with the narrow roads, hairpin turns, and cliffs with no guardrails!
As a general comment ,many British people use UK based consolidators to rent cars around the world.
I use Indigo Car Hire , a popular consolidator.
They have contracts with large companies like Avis,Budget and Enterprise ,as well as small local companies which they evaluate and check on regularly. I have rented cars through them in UK,Cyprus,Thailand,Belgium,USA and Turkey and never any problems. I always check prices and if they book me with...

I have rented cars through them in UK,Cyprus,Thailand,Belgium,USA and Turkey and never any problems. I always check prices and if they book me with Avis, they are always cheaper than me booking directly with Avis. Indigo get group consolidator discounts and special offers from time to time like free extra driver . Companies like Avis get a lot of business from consolidators ,so I believe they respond to problems quickly . Renting cars outside USA is quite different to inside USA , so be aware if it is your first time.
I am an Avis Preferred. In general I like the brand a lot. However, it seems that in some countries, they sell the franchise to local thugs.
I had some experiences in Thailand with AVIS. What's going on there has nothing to do at all with AVIS.
It start with a 30 minute wait until a shuttle turns up. No recognition of AVIS Preferred status at all. You have to check your car...

It looks very much to me that AVIS doesn't care about their brand in certain jurisdictions.
Just rented from the same Avis counter back in November. The guy who works there is named Jay. Real friendly dude and if I can read the number correctly from my rental form he can be reached at 2482833447.
Just a forewarning, but I thought the driving on the island was a little crazy. The roads were very narrow, roundabouts were confusing, and the left side of the road just isn't for me. Ended up parking my car at the ferry and hitting a different island. Good luck with whatever you decide.
When we arrived in the Seychelles 7 years ago, Hertz didn't have our reservation since apparently it can take "months" for them to receive reservations internationally. The good thing is we had it printed out and they had a car available - a mid-sized SUV. It had a bunch of issues so we were able to trade down to a smaller car that they had. This turned out to be a lucky thing as you've...
When we arrived in the Seychelles 7 years ago, Hertz didn't have our reservation since apparently it can take "months" for them to receive reservations internationally. The good thing is we had it printed out and they had a car available - a mid-sized SUV. It had a bunch of issues so we were able to trade down to a smaller car that they had. This turned out to be a lucky thing as you've probably noticed the roads are bit narrow there!
Since then, when traveling to more unique locations, we'll make reservations at more than one agency so we have options and hope that at least one of them received our reservation through those long tubes of the internet.
Trust me when I say that SIXT is by far the best out there. Having haf the pleasure with all of them, it is an easy judgement.
Compentent employees, highly specd and looked after cars (never older than 25000km). After 50+ rentals with them, I have never waited longer than 10mins to get my keys.
I rented from Eden and it was fine. Didn't give me a beater, but rather a decent quality fuchsia ford fiesta. There didn't appear to be any consistency as to which rental agencies were staffed. I tried to price compare among the ones that were open and they were all roughly the same. Eden ended up charging me as I had agreed to at the counter. I think the gas tank was near empty as...
