Emma Thompson United Kingdom | Hyundai i10 | March 2024
*****

Absolutely brilliant service from 4Drive. We arrived at Praslin Airport and the car was waiting for us as promised. No deposit, no credit card hassle - just signed the papers and off we went. The little Hyundai was perfect for getting around the island. We drove to Anse Lazio multiple times, visited Vallee de Mai, and explored every beach we could find. The car was clean, air conditioning worked perfectly, and we never had a single problem. Returning the car at the airport was just as smooth. Highly recommend for anyone visiting Praslin.

Marcus Weber Germany | Kia Picanto | February 2024
*****

We needed a car for five days in Praslin and 4Drive made everything easy. Paid with our debit card, no deposit required. The Kia was automatic which is what we wanted, and it handled the hill roads very well. We stayed at Cote d'Or and drove to Grand Anse, Anse Georgette, and caught the ferry to La Digue from Baie Sainte Anne. The freedom of having your own car on Praslin is worth it - taxis are expensive and buses are limited. Insurance was included so we had peace of mind. Very professional company.

Sarah Mitchell Australia | Hyundai Creta | January 2024

Perfect car rental experience. We booked the Hyundai Creta SUV online before arriving in Seychelles. The pickup at Praslin Airport was seamless - the 4Drive representative met us at arrivals with the keys and paperwork ready. The SUV was ideal for our family of four with luggage. We drove all over Praslin during our week stay. The cross-island road to Anse Lazio is steep and winding, but the Creta handled it beautifully. Fuel economy was good too. Returned the car with no issues. Would definitely use 4Drive again on our next Seychelles trip.

Jean-Pierre Dubois France | Suzuki Jimny | December 2023
****

Good experience overall with 4Drive. We wanted to try the Suzuki Jimny for a more adventurous feel and it was great fun to drive around Praslin. The open sides made it perfect for the tropical weather. We explored every corner of the island from our base near Baie Sainte Anne. Only minor issue was the manual transmission took a bit of getting used to on the left side of the road, but that is not the company's fault. No deposit requirement was very convenient. Recommended.

My husband and I rented from 4Drive for our Praslin honeymoon and it was the best decision. We needed a car to get to all the beautiful beaches without relying on taxis. The online booking was straightforward, and we paid with cash when we picked up the car at the airport. The i10 was small but comfortable for two people. We visited Anse Lazio at sunrise, drove to Vallee de Mai for the nature walk, and spent afternoons at different beaches. The car made it so easy to explore at our own pace. Full insurance included meant we did not worry about anything. Thank you 4Drive for making our honeymoon stress-free.

Alessandro Rossi Italy | Toyota RAV4 | October 2023
*****

Excellent service from 4Drive Praslin. We travelled as a group of six adults and rented two cars - a RAV4 and a Creta. Both vehicles were in excellent condition, clean inside and out, and ran perfectly for the entire week. We appreciated the no deposit policy as it meant we did not have large holds on our credit cards. The team delivered one car to our hotel at Grand Anse and we picked up the second at the airport. Very flexible and accommodating. We drove everywhere on Praslin, including multiple trips to Anse Lazio which is absolutely stunning. Highly professional operation. Will use again next year.

Hannah Johansson Sweden | Kia Picanto | September 2023
*****

Renting a car in Praslin with 4Drive was so easy. I was nervous about driving on the left side of the road, but the Kia Picanto automatic made it much easier. The roads in Praslin are not difficult - mostly one main road around the coast, plus the hill road over to Anse Lazio. Speed limits are low so you have time to adjust. The car was perfect for solo travel. I could stop at any beach I wanted, visit Vallee de Mai early in the morning before the crowds, and explore the small villages. No deposit and no credit card requirement made the whole process simple. Great value for money too.

David Chen Singapore | Hyundai Creta | August 2023
*****

Very satisfied with our 4Drive rental in Praslin. We stayed for ten days and the Hyundai Creta was our reliable companion the whole time. The SUV had plenty of space for our family of four plus all our beach gear and snorkelling equipment. We drove to Anse Lazio at least five times because our kids loved the calm clear water. Also visited Anse Georgette, Cote d'Or, Grand Anse, and took the ferry to La Digue for a day trip. The car was comfortable on long drives and handled the steep hill sections without any problems. Pickup and return at the airport were both efficient. Great service overall.

Marie Leclerc Canada | Hyundai i10 | July 2023
****

Good experience with 4Drive. The i10 was a bit small for our luggage but we managed. The car ran well and we had no mechanical issues during our six days in Praslin. We appreciated not needing a credit card - we paid cash at pickup. The roads in Praslin are easy to navigate, though the hill to Anse Lazio is quite steep. Make sure to drive slowly and carefully. We visited all the main beaches and the Vallee de Mai. The only reason I give four stars instead of five is that the air conditioning could have been colder, but otherwise everything was fine. Would rent from 4Drive again.

Thomas Mueller Switzerland | Suzuki Jimny | June 2023
*****

The Suzuki Jimny was a fantastic choice for Praslin. It is a small island so the compact size was perfect. The open design made every drive feel like an adventure. We explored every beach and visited Vallee de Mai twice. Driving on the left took about an hour to get comfortable, but after that it was no problem. The manual transmission gives you good control on the hill sections. 4Drive staff were friendly and professional at both pickup and drop-off. No deposit policy is a big advantage. Fuel consumption was reasonable too. If you want a fun driving experience in Praslin, choose the Jimny.

Rachel Turner Ireland | Toyota RAV4 | May 2023
*****

Absolutely excellent service from 4Drive Praslin. We booked the Toyota RAV4 for our two-week stay and it was perfect for our family of five. Plenty of space, comfortable seats, good air conditioning, and reliable performance. We drove all over Praslin multiple times. The kids loved Anse Lazio and we went there almost every day. We also explored Grand Anse, Anse Volbert, and took the ferry to La Digue where we rented bikes. The full insurance included with 4Drive gave us complete peace of mind. No deposit requirement was very convenient. The team was professional from start to finish. Highly recommend to any family visiting Praslin.

Paolo Bianchi Italy | Kia Picanto | April 2023
*****

Perfect car rental for Praslin. The Kia Picanto automatic was exactly what we needed for a couple exploring the island. We picked up the car at Praslin Airport right after our flight from Mahe. The 4Drive representative was waiting with the paperwork ready. We paid by debit card with no problems. The car was clean, recently serviced, and ran smoothly for our entire week. We visited Anse Lazio early mornings, Vallee de Mai in the afternoons, and enjoyed sunset drives along the coast. Returning the car was quick and easy. Great service, great price, great island. We will be back.
