First class trip with Jean who took great care of us. He showed all the sights with excellent advice on taking a guide at the Botanical Gardens and where to have lunch

This was a private guided tour, and the driver was called Ridwaan.
I was the only passenger and he was very friendly and knowledgeable.
Sights included Cap Malheureux (Catholic Church) which is situated on the roadside on the bay and has been well photographed over the years. 15 mins
We went here first because of the traffic.
Then to Port Louis Fort for about 30 mins (not much in here but ok for photos) then the harbour - this was ok, very busy and some historic value in some of the buildings and the colourful market.
I didn’t spend the whole allotted time here, I was there for history not shopping.
Then off to the Mauritius National Botanical Gardens - this was beautiful and I spend 1 hour and 45 mins here (pay to get in - about £5 and a guide for about £2.50)
Unfortunately I got caught in a heavy downpour but the driver gave me a large umbrella but couldn’t move around much so took shelter in one of the many huts.
The driver then took me for lunch to a local restaurant and it was good quality and cheap enough. The popular beer in Mauritius is Phoenix
Then last and definitely not least was a visit to the Sugarcane Museum (L’aventure De Sucre) which, for me, was the highlight of the tour. It costs about £19 admission but is worth every penny. Again you can have a guide but I chose to go round myself without the wait. This place is no longer in production but it’s an excellent museum. It’s packed with both sugarcane and Mauritian history and is well presented and very interesting.
At the end there is a bar with free Rum tasting (with your receipt-so keep it!)
The driver stayed in the car for the whole duration so no need to worry about being picked up again.
Great day and would
Recommend it although I do like to be in a group so it was strange having the one on one tour.

Fabulous guide who couldn't do enough to ensure our day was memorable. John knew the island well gave us plenty of options on how to spend our time.

Great driver, Firhan, took us everywhere we wanted to go and we were not rushed at all... he took us to a lovely cafe for lunch and we spent around 9 hours in all visiting various sights, taking pictures and shopping. Well worth booking

Once again, I unfortunately booked a guided tour of Port Louis, we have a very friendly taxi driver, but by no means, a guide. apart from visiting the citadel and the market downtown. Very poor visit, total disappointment. I will no longer book by your services, in view of the amounts paid, unjustified.

Bonjour,
La visite réservée était bien une visite guidée : notre chauffeur a expliqué l’histoire et le contexte culturel de chaque site, de la Citadelle au marché central, tout au long d’une journée complète de plus de 7 heures.
L’île Maurice n’est pas une destination à bas coût. Les tarifs reflètent les charges locales, le véhicule, l’accompagnement, les taxes et commissions. Le prix reste le même, que vous soyez 1 ou 4 personnes, alors que d’autres entreprises facturent par personne pour des prestations similaires.
Nous aurions apprécié que vous nous contactiez directement pour partager vos remarques, plutôt que de publier un commentaire susceptible de nuire à notre réputation. Nos avis parlent d’eux-mêmes, et nous laissons les autres juger la qualité de nos services.

Unlimited recommended tour of the beautiful north. Our driver Rakesh was friendly and helpful, but too reserved for our taste with his explanations.
Since we had the southern tour with the same company before, we know that there are also drivers there who are also great guides and happy to be able to inform about the history, culture and cuisine of their country.
Despite small limitation this time, still a great experience with unbeatable value for money! Absolutely serious, punctual and reliable.

Foi a pior experiência das nossas vidas em passeios, o guia mal falava inglês, sem contar que imaginávamos passear, olhar lojas, conhecer a cidade e tomar um café admirando a Cidade.
O que houve foi bem diferente. Não recomendo, não faria novamente.

Gutted to see such a bad review. Nothing is true about what you said. If ever you really had such a bad experience you could have told me directly and we could resolve this issue. I see it more as someone trying to ruin my reputation and with no concrete explanation.
