The entire experience was worth the price. The transfers were clean, well air conditioned and on time. The driver was kind and professional. The instructors for the undersea walk, tube ride and parasailing were so kind and patient. The speed boat transfers were wonderful. The food as part of the lunch was actually better tasting than the food at our resort. Overall a truly amazing experience.

Worst experience

milind_j, Dec 2023

Very poorly coordinated and pathetic experience from the tour company. Picked up late, no life jackets and had to wait for each & every activity…very disappointing experience

Great experience, we’d do again!

Elaine_A, Dec 2023

Our driver Daren was brilliant, very informative and extremely time conscious which helped a lot. “Mr Muscles” our speed boat driver (Mauri tats on the arm) was a very fast boat driver and handler - the trip was such fun. Just loved it. Take cash with you, as you cannot tip staff with a card (we only had a card with us) also take sunscreen! The day is quite long and hot. (Thankfully we did) you can order videos and photos of the underwater walk and the parasailing trip (1500 rupees per event) that was really worth it too. Lunch was good (lovely garlic bread, delish potato salad and amazing chicken!) overall fantastic way to spend the day.

Great trip with bad planning on island locations

supritkumar_s, Dec 2023

The planning for the trip is awful. We booked this adventure trip. We enjoyed all the activities undersea walking, tube riding, GRSE, and parasailing. The trip includes a meal. We are vegetarian, veg food was okay (not too bad not too good). The staff was friendly and professional. The trip started with pick up. Then we drove to the first activity undersea walking. It was amazing we purchased additional pics and a video package. After finishing this activity we drove to Ile aux Cerf parking. We embark on a speed boat to Ile Aux Cerf Beach. Ile aux cerf is a beautiful beach and one of the best in Mauritius. It's anything you have seen before. Pristine clear and turquoise color water. We were given only 1 hour on this island. Unfortunately, we were not able to enjoy our time on this island because our activities were planned for this location. Parasailing and tube riding. Then we boarded the speed boat again at noon. The boat took us to GRSE waterfall. Then to lunch at 1 PM on an island. From 1 PM till 3:30 PM, we just killed the time. The island where we had our lunch had a beach which is very dirty. It's one of the nasty beaches. we just found a shade under a tree to kill time by watching Netflix. 2 hours were wasted at the island where we had lunch. The beaches on this island were filled with algae. The water was unclear and not the place where you could swim or snorkel. All around the island. We checked on all sides of it. Improvement for trip organizer: 1. Give more time on Ile Aux Cerf beach 2. Please be on time for pick up (1 hr late for us) 3. Add more options for vegetarians For trip buyers: 1. Opt out for GRSE. It's not very interesting, Ask for more time at ILE aux Cerf

Perfect day

Terrible

Janmayjay_Y, Jul 2023

Well I am travel lover and I would write my most honest review for my fellow travellers. I I boarded the taxi 7:20. Then I went to undersea walk which was pretty fine. Then I went on to board speed boat for the island. When I reached there the activity area was so mismanaged that we ended up doing only tube riding and no para sailing and the guys said you will do it after lunch. They were in so much hurry to finish the trip that we went to see the grse waterfalls and then rushed to the island for lunch and then winded up asap to return to the jetty and I couldn’t communicate with anyone regarding my parasailing activity for which I paid 2500 Rs and there’s no help whatsoever regarding it and the only motto is to finish the trip as quickly as possible. Nothing else. I have travelled 6 countries with this app. But I must say that 288 dollars is not worth it and secondly this trip was the most disastrous across all 6 countries. 288 dollars is pinching my wallet every second and specially the parasailing amount. Don’t go for it. Just don’t waste your money. Rest god bless and may be gods with you always.

Great taxi driver and fun activities

Robbie_H, Sep 2022

Absolutely loved the trip, however at each activity it was a bit disorganised and we would have been completely lost without our taxi driver. He made sure we did not have to pay anything extra and had to keep calling the agency to make sure we got each aspect of our trip. The activities were good but not sure we would've been able to do them without him.

Okay but not worth it

Jan_L, Jun 2022

The tour was okay but I would generally not recommend. A cab driver picked us up - in time and unbelievably friendly guy. Unfortunately that’s about the best thing of the trip. He took us to several different places where we were to do all the activities. What we were missing was the entertainment. Everything was set up to push as many people as possible through. „Unlimited drinks“ is a joke, just as the 3 course lunch is. They gave us warm coke with cheap rum and a half way grilled hotdog sausage. The speedboattrip was okay but the captain didn’t talk or explain anything. So we were basically sitting on a little boat going pretty fast, lots of waves, strong wind, no drinks and no fun. My recommendation: Find a tour that’s organized by one person instead of a cab driver and 4 different stations.

Response from Host, Jun 2022

Dear valued guests, Thank you for your feedback. We are sorry that your experience did not meet your expectations. According to our investigation, the weather was very windy. What about the three activities (parasailing, tube riding and undersea walk) ? Definitely, the speed boat will go fast. We have clearly mentioned “unlimited drink”. You are untitled to unlimited drink and we cannot do nothing if the alcoholic drink did not suit you. It is a local rum. You can compare cheap rum with local rum. Our team has offered you a free bottle of champagne for only you and your partner ? What about that ? We always strive to deliver a great experience. We are disappointed if we miss the mark! Please contact us for further comments, concerns or suggestions (+230 58807140). We would like to help if you give us another chance. I apologize on behalf of everyone at Freshverde Holidays. Please know that your situation was an exception. As you can see in other reviews, we are known to take responsibility and care deeply about our customers. We can not fix the past, but you have a personal commitment to improving the way our employees serve each customer. Please accept my sincere apologies on behalf of everyone in the team Kind regards, Ashutosh Canaye
