Incredible experience - Very nice adventure to discover wonderful places in Mauritius. Lunch on the beach was very well supervised and we were pleased. The visits are well done and the staff at the top. Many thanks for this unforgettable day.

Exceeded expectation - The day was one of the highlights of our trip. Everything was well planned and executed. The driver picked us up on time, was very obliging and friendly. The boat driver was bo different. He made us very comfortable and catered to our needs. The food was excellent. Overall it was a tour well worth the money.

Nice day out on Ile aux Cerfs but a veggie option for lunch would be perfect - I was taken to Trou d’Eau douce to board the boat by taxi driver Avinash, he was very nice and friendly and his driving is nice and smooth, which made me feel safe in the car. As to the boat tour itself it was very pleasant. We arrived on Ile aux Cerfs around 9am, it was very quiet and peaceful and we got plenty of time to enjoy the beach and different activities available on the island. I had a chance to do some snorkelling off a glass bottomed boat which was great, for an extra 1500 rupees as the day trip didn’t include water activities. Giving 4 stars instead of five as there was no vegetarian option for lunch, I was given a curry with big chunks of meat in it (after informing Bonjour Mauritius ahead of time and one of the staff cooking at the barbecue place before lunch that I don’t eat meat.) however, the side dishes of potato salad, garlic bread and rice were very tasty! After lunch I was brought back to the main shore where Avinash was already waiting for me, to bring me back to my hotel, really appreciate the punctuality!

A great day out - Beautiful places to visit. Enough time at each location . Trip only spoilt slightly by being the only 2 English speaking on board and we're with a VERY roudy crowd, who even brought their own portable speaker with them. Having said that they were lovely people, just a bit ott for us and not understanding them was awkward at times. Enjoyed the trip though

Fun day out - A bit of a long journey for the transfer, but overall we had a great day out. The speed boat trip was fun and we got to see different parts of the island plus the waterfall. The drivers were friendly and informative and the BBQ was great with plenty of good food and drink.

Great family experience - Very pleasant day with the transfer included which makes traveling and parking easier. Magnificent landscapes, unique activities, all in a friendly atmosphere. The organization could nevertheless be revised by scheduling an activity in the morning and an activity in the afternoon. This would probably give us a little more time to enjoy lunch.

Beautiful day - Picked up on time at the hotel, snorkeling equipment (old fashioned 😊) was provided and we were off pretty quickly. Jordan and Johannes, the guys from the crew, were very attentive and explained everything well in English and French. And what can I say, the speedboats are fast. Seaworthiness is an advantage. First to a small waterfall (traffic jam before, there were quite a few boats), then across the lagoon (surprised that we saw dolphins) to the lighthouse island. Since you can also walk around there, it takes a while, depending on the interests of the other passengers, until everyone is back in the boat. Past a historic prison island (no stopping) to the next landing point, the bird island. There you can snorkel in the crystal clear water and there are some fish to see. If you are expecting something spectacular, you won't get your money's worth. We still found it very nice. When we started again there, we were at a beautiful beach on Ile le Cerfs at around 1:45 p.m., where we had a plentiful lunch of salad, grilled chicken thighs and fried banana. Also delicious. Even those who liked to drink were served with restraint. As we were going to swim, sunbathe or go for a walk afterwards, we didn't head to the fun beach at Cerfs until 2:30 p.m. and as we were supposed to be back at the mooring point by around 3:30 p.m., we were short on time (10 minutes). All in all, though, it was a beautiful day. When we got back, however, the two taxis had already left. And there were still three of us couples. It took three quarters of an hour before another taxi came after we had called twice. That's why we only got four stars.

A most enjoyable day out... - Speedboat transfer, waterfall & lunch provided by Tino tours was excellent with fruit bats and monkeys observed on the way. The 2 hours on Aux Cerfs island was pleasant but marred by the demand for 600 rupees per person for the sunbeds despite not one notice on the beach re:- the cost.
