Top Mauritius Museum Tickets & Passes

Step into the Mauritius of a hundred years ago at a family-run heritage museum and working spice house on the south coast, ten minutes from Souillac. Guided throughout by a member of the family, you walk a living spice garden where turmeric, combava, curry leaf and lemongrass grow within a few steps of each other. You enter an old traditional kitchen, and a museum of everyday objects kept for three generations: charcoal irons, brass scales, a grandmother's sewing machine, a harmonium that crossed an ocean in a family's luggage. Then you grind. On a ross cari, the volcanic stone Mauritian kitchens used for generations, you make your own masala by hand. Everyone grinds, including children. What you grind goes into the traditional Mauritian tastings that follow, eaten the way island families eat: small bowls, shared, at one table, with time to sit. You leave with a 50g pouch of our masala, still ground by hand in the village our family comes from.

Discover L’Aventure du Sucre, a former 19th-century sugar factory transformed into an immersive cultural experience in Beau Plan, near the Pamplemousses Botanical Garden and just 15 minutes from Port Louis. With an audio guide available in nine languages, explore how sugar cane shaped the island’s history, landscapes, economy and cultural heritage, among the impressive machinery of the former factory. Interactive displays and an activity booklet make the visit especially enjoyable for younger visitors. End your visit with tastings of unrefined Mauritian cane sugars and 15 award-winning New Grove rums for adults, alongside local vanilla, tropical jams and exotic honeys. A must-see during a day in northern Mauritius.
