A great day in the North of the Island
We had a lovely day spent with Rajesh. He was punctual and car was very clean. The tour was on a Sunday so a couple of the activities weren’t open but that was ok. Also the rum tasting was not running due to them not having a license but it didn’t spoil the day. He gave great info about the island and dropped us y to I the door of every stop. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this tour and Rajesh.

A brilliant introduction to the island and its food.
This was an absolutely brilliant introduction to the foods and cultures of Mauritius. Our guide, Rudy, was an encyclopedia of the history and culture of the island. The food was excellent as was the whole tour around the city centre. Highly recommend and great value for money.

Well worth a visit!
We had a fabulous day out with Beni as our guide. We visited a cashmere factory, a model boat factory, followed by Trou aux Cerfs Volcano, the Alexander water fall, Black river gorge, Grand Bassin and Chararmel Waterfalls and 7 coloured earth and saw the giant tortoises. All for £75 plus entrance fees to the Charamel Waterfalls which was about £13 each. The views from the top of the mountain were stunning and we learned a lot about the Hindu religion at Grand Bassin. I couldn’t recommend it enough.

Neptune Cruise to Ile Aux Cerfs was excellent!
We had an excellent time on Neptune Pirate Cruises to Ile Aux Cerfs!
As soon as I booked the tour, Neelesh reached out with all the pertinent information. As soon as I mentioned it was our son’s birthday he said the crew would organise a cake for him.
If you are driving yourself from another part of the island to Trou D’eau Douce, make sure you leave plenty of time to drive as traffic will be heavy at that time of the morning.
Once on board, Yona and Skipper Lukas and the crew looked after us. The weather wasn’t the best but we all still had fun.
The GRSE waterfall was great and the BBQ lunch was lovely. We had 2 hours at Ile Aux Cerfs which was just enough time and such a lovely place.
On the return trip, the crew surprised our son with his birthday cake and a song and there was dancing on board. We had the best day.
All followed up with a message from Neelesh to ask how our day had been.
Excellent communication and care from the team - highly recommend 💕

South West tour of Mauritius
Fabulous tour given by Nichel around the South West of the island. He was welcoming and very knowledgeable and gave me time to enjoy each visit on my own but on hand to take photos as I was travelling alone. The weather made the day and I would definitely recommend a tour as this enhanced the experience and you also get to know other lovely knowledge. The lunch was a real taste of Mauritius with a delicious selection.

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 day out in Mauritius
A full day with lots of experiences. Our driver was very knowledgeable about the area. The included lunch was delicious with choices. The coloured earth looked more colourful on the picture on the internet than in real life but this did not detract from the overall tour. The visit to the tea and rum tours were very good. Plenty of tea to try with no hard sell. Don’t get too drunk tasting the many varieties of rum!!!

Highly recommended tour...
Highly recommended tour provider and guide! We had an absolutely fantastic day. Beautiful places and a super knowledgeable, friendly and open-minded guide. He made the whole tour experience even more enjoyable! If you are visiting South Mauritius and would like to learn more about the culture and nature, this is a must.

Adventure at the big M!’
Our guide and driver David arrived on time and he was very friendly and informative. He was very patient and very attentive. The tour itself was full of great content, sights and activities at the Valle AdvenNature park. Great vista views and waterfalls. Lots to see and great atmosphere. I would certainly recommend this trip to anyone visiting the Island for the first time.

Excellent trip #makingmemories
We were up at our hotel by our driver Vicky who chauffeured us on both legs of our journey. Vicky was professional and friendly and when we arrived at our destination, located the jetty for us and explained the return journey arrangements. He was there to meet us ready for our trip home too.
The crew were fantastic (3) and made the trip one to remember. The catamaran was very spacious with lots of shaded area for those that required this - for those that wished for the sailing experience there was plenty of space on the front, including lounging on the nets.
The details were expertly explained both when boarding and during our trip. There were about 30 sailors in total which worked well and still allowed lots of space. Two toilets were on board if needed.
The food was superb - sausages, chicken skewers and tuna were bbq’d by the crew on our journey and these were accompanied by lovely salads - plenty for everyone. Breakfast was fresh croissants and hot drinks.
There was a good selection of both alcoholic and non alcohol beverages - the jungle juice packs a punch so be warned!!
We saw the waterfall, monkeys, had a great time snorkelling in shallow seas and beautiful fish and spent just over an hour on the island. Nothing felt rushed and timings worked for us. All in all a fabulous day which we would totally recommend.
Our intial trip had been cancelled due to ‘catastrophic’ weather conditions but we soon rebooked and felt reassured that safety was key.
Our initial trip had been booked some weeks before travel but Viator honoured our original discount code, which was very appreciated.

Wow, what a fantastic day...
Wow, what a fantastic day trip. From the moment you get on board the rum and music flows, our pilot was on the ball, brought everyone together, very knowledgeable, funny and very capable with the speedboat, and generous with the rum. The food was amazing, we had the lobster which is extra but worth it.seen all the East coast definitely a must .5 star.

Amazing but Challenging.
Wow !!! Exhilarating !! Yiddish was our guide and the knowledge he has of the area is amazing. A true cultural experience. The scramble is tough so make sure you’re physically able and be confident. Our guide took his time and we all made it without incident. The views at the top are worth it.
