What are people saying about Mauritius

Thomas_C, Jul 2026

Sahil was an excellent...

Sahil was an excellent guide and driver, providing information about each stop and mauritius life generally. We were coming from the east of the island so we didnt have time for the vallee adventure alongside travel to/from the south but still had a great day with the rest of the itinerary. Would highly recommend. We've used other taxi companies but this one definitely was the most informative.

Amazing experience, Superb Crew

Amazing experience, Fantastic Crew. Turned out to be an exceptional experience. We had 3 guys, Tomy and 2 others, dont remember their names and all made our trip exceptionally memorable. Also got 3 dolphins to have an additional dolphin show! One of the most amazing memories we had. Must do. With these guys only!

We had an amazing tour of the north! Our driver was kind and very knowledgeable and easy to talk to. It was a long drive from the south and he kept us entertained. The tour allowed us to see several places and got to try delicious local food as well. The experience made us want to come back to the north again and explore the beautiful beaches. Highly recommend this tour and booking with this company for other excursions

Exploring Mauritius.

We had a great day with Nasser our driver to explore Mauritius. The car was comfortable and clean and Nasser was a good driver. We received interesting information along the way and at the places we visited. Unfortunately the weather was not great that day but Nasser adjusted the itinerary so that we still could enjoy the tour. We can highly recommend this company and our driver Nasser.

Our private day trip in...

Our private day trip in Mauritius through Viator was better than we could have hoped for. Our guide, Raj, was fantastic. He was so friendly and knowledgeable about the history and sites. We saw everything that was listed on our itinerary plus more and he catered our timing to what we wanted to spend more or less time doing. He was prompt and flexible on our timing as well. Our lunch stop was a wonderful restaurant and the food was an excellent sample of local food. A great choice for our only day spent on the Island. We were so excited to see Mauritius and our Viator tour worked perfectly for our schedule.

Port-Louis Street Food Tour

Tonia_M, May 2026

The best thing I did in Mauritius

If you don’t do anything else in Mauritius, this is the one thing you need to do. Christopher was the best tour guide we encountered on our trip! He was friendly, enthusiastic and humourous which added so much to the experience! We expected to just do food tasting but we got so so much more than that. Christopher explained the Mauritius history in detail, the colonial past, the different cultures, religions and taught us so much about the country, even down to the drains in the street. He also took us to the food market, craft market and to the museum! And he included an extra for us which was a tea tasting experience at Kuanfu Tea which was amazing! He also gave us dining suggestions for after the tour. This was really an amazing north tour! The food we tried was delicious and everything was clean and safe and well selected! The best food we ate in Mauritius was on this tour. Make sure to not eat too much before you go as the food you get is very generous and big portions and you want to try everything. Cannot recommend anything more.

Stunning South West

Amazing scenery on this tour of the south west. Our driver Robin gave us lots of information en route as we visited Chamarel, the Black River Gorges National Park, the Grand Bassin Temple and the Trou aux Cerfs volcano crater. We had time to look around the various places and also had several stops along the way to take pictures at viewpoints. We even saw a Macaque monkey! We had brought a picnic lunch from the hotel and Robin found us a picnic spot by a lake so we could eat it. As it was a Sunday there weren’t many shops open but we visited a shop in Curepipe and bought some T shirts as souvenirs. All in all a great way to see a bit more of the country outside of our hotel. Thank you!

Dolphins Encounter and Whale Watching

natalie_h, Aug 2025

A whale tale!

Great tour! Lino and Yoni were extremely patient and never rushed us. They gave us multiple opportunities to swim with the dolphins. We also got to see a huge sperm whale, and the crew waited another 45mins just to see if it may resurface again. I'd recommend this company if you're looking for a wonderful day out on the water.
