• SSR Botanic Garden - The largest of its kind in the Southern Hemisphere, Pamplemousses Botanical Garden is home to over 650 varieties of plants and 85 different palm trees from around the world, some of which have been planted by royalty and famous world leaders. There is also a spice garden and you should not miss a visit to the giant water lilies pond.

Formerly known and named after the former Prime Minister Sir Seewoosagar Ramgoolam, and lovingly known as Pamplemousses Botanical Gardens to the native islanders, it was initially a private garden to the then French governor nearly 300 years ago. Meet the giant tortoises and other animals and take pleasure in the serenity of nature.

• L’Aventure Du Sucre - A short drive from the gardens is one of the remaining sugar factories on the island: L’Aventure du Sucre. The factory officially closed its doors in 1999, but most of the machineries remain untouched, which makes it a must-visit.

The approach itself is impressive, along an avenue of bougainvillea and coconut palms, with a lake bordered by lush greenery, leading to the charming sugar factory. A sugarcane hedge runs alongside the final pathway to the restored and converted factory. Immerse yourself in exploring the beautiful interior of the factory and be amazed with its old machines decked with a thousand lights, giant screens, more than 35 films, a barge floating and the sudden whistle of a railway engine. Their wonderful and interactive tour will help visitors have deeper insight into the rich history and culture of the island.
You will also get a chance to sample unrefined sugars and spoil yourself with some pure cane rum!
