Asif our driver for the day was excellent.
He was knowledgeable and had great communication making the trip informative and fun. Plus his vehicle was spotlessly clean
Perfect day trip for getting a real flavour for the north of the island.
We would highly recommend this trip and if your lucky enough to get Asif as well then you can’t go wrong.

If ever in Mauritius it’s a must; as this island has a history beside it’s beautiful beaches . He was so explicit throughout the trip and before every stop he informs me of what to expect . He was very helpful and tried his best to make this day tour pleasant . The car was very clean and comfortable. Thank you and i recommend him to other tourists.

We did a day with one of the tour guides, however it didn’t go as planned, so we raised this with the organiser (Chucky), who offered a complimentary day out in Port Louis to make up for this. This exceeded our expectations and we managed to see much more than we thought thanks to Chucky and Kevin. I would like to highlight his professionalism, fairness and customer service to resolve this matter. Definitely the best service we experienced during our vacation in Mauritius.

The driver arrived promptly and was very pleasant. He explained how we were going to spend the day. He gave us lots of information about places and life in Mauritius.
We enjoyed the opportunity to see many places.

We had an excellent tour of Mauritius with Chucky Taxi Mauritius, and our driver Sahil made the experience truly memorable. He was friendly, professional, and very knowledgeable about the island, sharing interesting information throughout the journey while also giving us plenty of time to enjoy the beautiful scenery. Sahil was flexible with the itinerary and happily adapted the tour to suit our preferences. He was always punctual, helpful, and ensured we were comfortable throughout the day. Highly recommend Chucky Taxi Mauritius and especially Sahil for anyone looking for a personalized and enjoyable tour experience. Thank you, Sahil!

I had an amazing time on this tour and would highly recommend it. The tour company made everything very easy to understand beforehand, so I knew exactly how the day would work.
My guide and driver, Asif, was absolutely fantastic. He arrived on time, which I really appreciated, and made me feel comfortable from the moment we started. Normally I can be quite quiet depending on who I’m with, but I felt completely at ease with him. We spent the day chatting, laughing, and having a genuinely great time.
One thing that really stood out was how knowledgeable he is. He knows the area so well that he did not need a map or Google directions. Any question I had, and I asked a lot, he was able to answer. He would also share extra information without me even asking, which made the experience so much more interesting. I honestly feel like I learned so much about the north of Mauritius in just one day.
The car was comfortable and air conditioned, he let me play my own music, bought me a drink, and we even stopped to try some delicious roti. He also gave me plenty of time at every stop and never made me feel rushed. If there was somewhere I wanted to look around or spend extra time exploring, he was more than happy to accommodate that.
During the tour I visited so many beautiful places, including the Botanical Garden, Cap Malheureux Church, the rhum distillery and its beautiful mansion like building, La Citadelle, Pereybere Beach, Grand Baie Beach, and the Caudan Waterfront. The viewpoints throughout the day were incredible, and I also loved seeing so many animals and beautiful scenery.
This was my very first excursion of my holiday, and it could not have been a better start. I am so glad I was matched with Asif as my guide. I had so much fun, learned so much, and made some wonderful memories. I would absolutely recommend both Asif and this tour company to anyone visiting Mauritius.

Our driver, Kevin, was great. He was very friendly, knowledgeable and never rushed us. Everything we were promised to see - we saw and overall had a really good time.

The tour of the north of the island of Mauritius is a must ….
Our driver Keven picked us up on time and took us to all the main places of interest. He never rushed us and gave us relevant information and allowed us plenty of time to explore
Communication was very good before and during trip.
Thoroughly recommend

Beautiful Island/country with great sceneries. Excellent guide, very knowledgeable and pleasant.
Would highly recommend as a private tour
Barry_B, May 2026
This was one of the best island tours we’ve been on. The driver, Sahil, was very accommodating to our needs and extremely knowledgeable. He told us a lot about the history and culture of the island and answered all of our questions. He also adjusted the tour based on our specific interests. One of the highlights was the restaurant he recommended for lunch. What incredible, fresh food.
The company did a great job communicating with us before the tour and helped us recover an item we had dropped along the way.
We would highly recommend this tour.
Maureen_T, May 2026
The driver was early and very helpful. He brought us to all of the highlights and was a good communicator.

We had a really good day with Asif as our driver. He was friendly, open and very warm throughout the trip. What we especially appreciated was that he knew exactly when to talk and share information, and when to give us some quiet time to relax and enjoy the journey.
Even with a bit of rain, we still had a lovely day and felt very comfortable with him. He even went the extra mile and got my pregnant wife some little mango sweets for the journey, which was a very thoughtful touch.
Thank you, Asif, for making the excursion so enjoyable.

Collected from hotel and travelled from the South to the North in a nice clean car. We saw all the places listed on the itinerary and driver was very helpful. We probably didn’t need a full hour at the waterfront but it was nice to walk round it. Quite a long day but got to see everything that was planned. Extra costs included botanic gardens (well worth it), lunch at Heart of the Ocean (wouldn’t have been our choice so have another option would have been good) and colonial house (good to see but quite expensive if you don’t want to do the rum tasting). Probably didn’t need a hour here so we left a bit early and Asif was good with this. Traffic was busy but we got through quickly. Asif was very knowledgeable and pointed out places of interest as we went! Thank you for a lovely day😎

Although I didn't have time for the whole tour, the driver still took me to many places. We stopped for pics at the red roofed church by the sea. I walked the grounds of the elegant chateau, toured the home and tasted rum. I enjoyed the recommended dish, red snapper, at a local restaurant. At the botanical garden, I took a golf cart tour, which entailed an in-depth look at trees from all over the world. I also saw flying fox bats sleeping in a tree and a small animal park with tortoises there. I would recommend this tour.

A lovely day trip. Our cautious and friendly driver showed us a lot in very little time without feeling rushed.
Joe_B, Apr 2026
We booked this trip because we wanted to explore the highlights of the North of the island. We saw everything we wanted to see and more! The trip is great value for money and having your own driver means if you take longer or shorter at a location that’s fine!
Our driver was Kevin who was brilliant. He was very friendly and helpful. He knew a lot about the island and all the destinations and answered all our questions.
The trip length is perfect if you should want to be out for the day but not consume the whole day needing to wake up early and get back late. We were able to enjoy an easy morning, do the trip and then still have some time in the afternoon to relax at our hotel. It was exactly what we wanted in the excursion .
Thank you and definitely thank you to Kevin!

Overall, this tour has the potential to be a great experience, but it really depends on the driver you get. Unfortunately, mine wasn’t the friendliest, which affected the day. I’d recommend having lunch in Port Louis instead of the seafood restaurant they typically take tourists to, the price isn’t worth the quality of the food. Also, some of the stops felt quite rushed, and I think they would have been much more enjoyable with a bit more time. You could probably skip Grand Baie public beach, as it’s quite crowded with parked yachts. Instead, spend more time in Pereybere, walking along the beach there is much more relaxing and enjoyable. Cap Malheureux was a highlight and absolutely beautiful. It would be great if there were an option to swim there. I also noticed that we didn’t visit the public market as advertised, which was a bit disappointing. That said, this tour could be an amazing experience overall, you just need to be lucky with the driver.

Great tour! Very informative and the guide was friendly. We had an enjoyable time and were happy we chose this specific company. Would highly recommend!
Laurent_L, Apr 2026
Amazing day visiting the north of the island and seeing the main sites. Our driver Devin was nice and friendly.
Lucie_D, Mar 2026
Good tour, bad driving.
Our driver didn't speak to us at all. We asked multiple questions about the locations and received a one word reply.
The places we visited were good with the botanical gardens being highly recommend. They offer a guide in the gardens 75 rupees per person.
We also asked to see China Town but our driver said "nothing to see" and continued driving
We did a South tour too with a different provider and our guide was amazing so this was such a let down.

Nice trip through the North of Mauritius.
We enjoyed staying at the Pamplemousses Botanical Garden and at the Labourdonnais Chateaux.
Port Louis is okay, if you want to visit a city. But for shopping a good place to go.
If you have the chance to visit the locals markets, there you should go. It's a great experience. We booked our trip on Mauritius National Day, so most of the shops, museums and markets were closed. But that was okay for us.
Kim_M, Mar 2026
Great tour of the north of the island with Chucky Taxi Mauritius. Chucky was very good at balancing giving us information as we drove, with time just to soak up the views. He also allowed us to adjust the programme to suit our requirements and even helped me do some shopping! Thank you Chucky.
Caroline_C, Mar 2026
The Driver was very nice and drops you off at all station or even cut one shorter because it was Sunday and not everything was open so more time for the other station. Maybe cut it from the beginning on Sundays and ad something different.
