Mahé nightlife tour: Bars, clubs & casinos after dark

Mahé has a nightlife scene most island visitors never see.

A guided night tour of Mahé's bars, clubs and casinos with hotel pickup and return, running 4 to 5 hours. You choose between a club-hopping route or a casino-focused night. The driver knows all the venues and their opening times, so the itinerary shifts with what's actually open. Pickup from anywhere on Mahé is included, and you can drink freely without managing the drive back.

Step-by-step itinerary

Night tour of bars and casinos

• Pick up from hotel or ferry
• Visit Beach Shak bar at Beau Vallon Beach
• Enjoy drinks at Eden Island Sunset Bar and Casino
• Explore the oldest club in Seychelles (Wed/Sat only)
• Optionally visit one of six casinos on Mahé
• Return to hotel or ferry

The experience

Eden Island is the usual starting point: the Sunset Bar, Boardwalk and Casino sit there together, so you land with a drink in hand before the night really begins. From there the route branches: either you're hitting bars and clubs across the island (the oldest and most legendary one only opens Wednesdays and Saturdays, newly renovated), or you're working through casino alternatives if that's your preference. A mix of both isn't possible, so you decide which version suits the night you want.

The driver picks you up from your hotel or the ferry and brings you back afterward, which means you're not hunting for addresses in the dark or calculating how much you can safely drink. The vehicle is air-conditioned and the tour runs about 4 to 5 hours depending on where things are open that night. You're traveling with other people on the tour, not solo, so there's a built-in group to move through the venues with.

The company is registered, insured and licensed by the Government, and the guides speak English, French or German. Minimum age is 18.

Top questions

What languages is the tour guided in?

Live guide in English, French and German.

Can I choose between bars and casinos, or do I have to do both?

You pick one or the other at booking: either a club and bar route or a casino-focused night. A mix of both isn't possible because the venues operate on different schedules and locations.

What's included in the price?

Hotel pickup and return, the guided tour, and the air-conditioned vehicle are included. Drinks, food and casino entry fees are separate.

Do I need to arrange my own transport to the first bar?

No. The driver picks you up from your hotel or ferry terminal and takes you to the first venue, so you don't drive at night yourself.

What's the Beach Shak like?

The Beach Shak sits right on Beau Vallon Beach and is one of the first stops on the bar route. You'll spend roughly 1 to 2 hours there soaking in the chilled bar atmosphere before moving to the next venue.

Is this tour only for tourists, or do locals go too?

The tour mixes travelers with other people interested in Mahé's nightlife. The oldest club on the route, for instance, draws mostly locals and has good music: tourists are the minority there.
