    Travelled as a couple

    There were at least 12 of us on the boat, we were the only English, not really too much of a problem until it came to lunch, conversation was very limited, the snorkelling was not good at all, just felt it was not a very enjoyable day. You pay too much money going with Tui, I would use your local guide once you get there

    Die Tour war eigentlich ganz schön. Es war nur schade, dass man zur Insel gebracht wurde und es keine Informationen gab, wie lange wir dort bleiben und wann es etwas zu Essen gibt. So konnte man gar nicht planen, ob man Zeit hat für einen Spaziergang oder für Einkäufe hat. Das Essen war nicht lecker, ich hatte direkt in der Nacht heftig Magen-Darm Probleme und musste den ganzen Folgetag im Hotelzimmer bleiben, ich vermute das kam vom Essen auf der Insel. Der Preis ist zu hoch für die Leistung.

Mauritius South Island Tour with Chamarel Geopark & Grand Bassin

Wild beauty abounds in Mauritius. But the island's colourful south is absolutely bursting with it. This tour takes you to a roll call of must-sees. Trou aux Cerfs volcano, a sacred lake, the seven-coloured earth of Chamarel and much more await. Sandya, one of our local guides, says, ‘The south is how I imagine my island was 400 years ago. I try to imagine how our animals lived, such as the giant tortoises and extinct dodo, and the now-protected luxuriant forests.'The fun kicks off at Trou aux Cerfs, a dormant volcano with a 90-metre-deep pine-studded crater. Next, we'll visit Voiliers de l'Océan, where artisans handcraft teak models of 18th century galleons. Laurna, another of our local guides, says, ‘It takes about 300 hours to complete a small boat of 70cm, while for larger boats about 1 to 3 months, depending on the size.' At the Takamaka winery, sample lychee wines and find out how discarded skins are used. This visit supports the employment of locals in a traditional business.Then, at Grand Bassin, a lake sacred to Hindus, you'll visit a temple and maybe offer prayers. A drive through Black River Gorges National Park takes you to a restaurant in Chamarel for a lunch made from locally sourced ingredients. Highlights in the park include the 100-metre drop Chamarel waterfalls and the seven-coloured earth of Chamarel. These barren volcanic dunes are surrounded by greenery.
