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.

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!

Entertaining storyteller and safe responsible driver
Sahil was a safe and responsible taxi driver making intelligent conversation providing a good historical knowledge of the island. Highlights included imaginative retellings of the local ghost stories and good insights about the local culture. The car itself was immaculate with a certain rock star energy! Thanks Sahiil! We wish you all the best with your future plans

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.

what an amazing tour, a realgem
Our guide was the absolute best, I had a fantastic time, the food was amazing, a great variety, from sweet to savory, from Chinese, to Indian to creole to I don‘t have a clue :-). The walk through the town was amazing, the funny stories and history facts just made it sooo much better. And on top a fun group of poeple. thanks for everything and best regards grom Switzerland

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!!!

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.

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.

Catamaran bliss
We had a wonderful day, with perfect weather and an excellent and helpful crew. The team gave us an overview of the day and what to expect and couldn't do enough for us. There were not too many other guests on the boat which also made the trip more relaxing and comfortable. The bbq was also delicious and we managed to spot a group of dolphins up close! Loved it

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!
