Bargain Car Hire delivers your car free of charge to the Cat Cocos ferry jetty in Victoria — no taxi to a rental office, no waiting around, no extra fees. Collect your keys and drive straight to your next stop.
We're a local, independent car hire company on Mahé, and ferry-jetty delivery is one of the things our customers love most. Rates start from €45 per day, and every rental includes unlimited mileage and a free second driver.
Free Delivery & Collection at the Ferry Jetty
The Cat Cocos ferry docks at the Inter-Island Quay in Victoria, on the north-east of Mahé. When your ferry arrives, our team meets you at the jetty with your car, fueled and ready. When it's time to leave, just drop it back at the jetty before your return crossing. There's no extra charge — ferry delivery and collection are included in your rate.
Travelling on through the airport instead? We also deliver free to Seychelles International Airport (SEZ), and to around 95% of Mahé hotels for a small €15 fee.

Perfect for Island-Hopping Travellers
Many visitors split their trip between Mahé, Praslin and La Digue. The Cat Cocos ferry makes hopping between islands easy — and a car waiting at the Mahé jetty makes the Mahé leg effortless. Pick the car up the moment you land, explore the island at your own pace, and drop it back when you sail on or fly home.
Because the jetty is right in Victoria, you're perfectly placed to start exploring straight away — the capital's market, shops and the road network all branch out from here.
Where a Car Takes You From the Jetty
From the Victoria ferry quay you can drive in minutes to:
- Victoria city centre (~5 min) — Sir Selwyn Selwyn-Clarke Market, shops, banks
- Beau Vallon (~15 min) — Mahé's most popular beach
- Eden Island (~10 min) — marina, dining and shopping
- The west and south coasts — Port Launay, Baie Lazare, Anse Royale
With your own car you're free of taxi prices and bus timetables — chase the best beaches, viewpoints and sunsets on your own schedule.
A Car Built for Mahé's Roads
Mahé's roads are narrow, winding and hilly, so a small, easy-to-handle automatic is ideal — simpler to drive and easier on fuel. Our fleet is picked specifically for the island: compact enough for tight coastal lanes, comfortable enough for the family and luggage.
