Located in the Indian Ocean, some 1000 miles from the African coast, Seychelles is four hours ahead of GMT (3 hours ahead of British Summer time). The most convenient flights to Seychelles from the UK are on daily flights via Dubai with Emirates, or via Abu Dhabi with Etihad Airways; journey times are from approximately 14 hours (including connection times). Alternatively, flights are available with Ethiopian via Addis Aba or Kenyan Airways via Nairobi.

Official languages in Seychelles are English, French and Creole. The local currency is the Seychelles Rupee and money can be only be exchanged at banks, authorised money dealers at the international airport or with hotel cashiers. We would advise against changing too much money into Seychelles Rupees as euros, sterling and US dollars are accepted. Mastercard, Visa and American Express cards are widely accepted, although the latter may not be valid at some of the smaller properties, shops or restaurants.
