to do list! - This excursion is a must have if you want to discover the north of Mauritius!
Our guide/driver Nikhill was very professional, kind and attentive. we visited the water front of Port Luis and its market, then we went to visit the beautiful Pamplemousse Botanical Garden! Trust on your guide for the restaurant because we ate amazing fish thanks to his suggestion!!
After lunch we went to the beach for a while and to visit Notre Dame Auxiliatrice church at Malheureux cap! that’s an amazing place!!!

Mauritius self-directed with an absolutely reliable driver - In the course of a cruise we visited Mauritius for a day. Since we like to do something individually and spontaneously, we had neither booked a trip over the ship, nor in advance through other event organizers. Of course we had learned about Mauritius. We disembarked spontaneously and were approached right at the port exit by various taxi drivers and we were offered prices beyond "good and evil". As we walked on, a nice young man approached us and asked where we wanted to go. He called us a perfectly acceptable price. We spent a great day with him. On the beach he has reliably waited on and and recommended a nice little place on request. Afterwards we wanted to do some shopping and were at a great market where almost only locals
have shopped.
So if you are looking for a reliable driver, Atish +23057101505 (English/French) is in good hands.

Great private tour to the north with Nishal - Our driver Nishal was very helpful and friendly and knew a lot of things about all our destinations and the history of Mauritius. The tour was not rushed and we could personalize it to a great extent (destinations and time spent at the locations). Overall a great trip and thanks again to Nishal.

Great day touring round . - Nishal our driver was really nice, informative and listened to what we wanted to make our day a brilliant tour of the north side of Mauritius. He was early but waited till we were ready , waited patiently at each stop , added suggestions to enhance our day. Nothing was too much trouble couldn’t ask for anything more .

Whistlestop but hits the highlights - This tour was a bit whistlestop…it would have been good if some more time was spent in Port Louis to explore the market and marina area.

I was a solo traveller... - I was a solo traveller and booked this tour expecting more personalised attention. The guide and driver Mike did not accompany me at any of the stops. He simply dropped me off and said I'll pick you up later. I expected more of a guide for the price.
