Highlights
- Trou aux Cerfs - Once an active volcano that contributed to the formation of Mauritius, this now dormant volcano is located in the heart of the island. It is home to various plants and monkeys and offers a breathtaking view from the top, accessible by car. Situated in Curepipe, specifically in the La Caserne area, it is a popular tourist attraction.
- La Marie Road - Known for its picturesque scenery, this road offers beautiful views and a pleasant atmosphere. The La Marie Reservoir is located along this road, as is the Oxenham Winery.
- Ganga Talao - A well-known site among visitors to Mauritius, Ganga Talao is located in the Reserve Valley and is a sacred place for Hindus, who make up 50% of the Mauritian population. This serene location is a must-visit, offering a peaceful environment ideal for yoga practitioners and meditation enthusiasts.
- Alexandra Falls View Point - Located in the southern part of Mauritius, this spot is a favorite among trekking enthusiasts and is home to the famous Alexandra Falls. Note that access may be restricted due to frequent landslides, but our professional team ensures safety.
- Viewpoint - One of the best viewpoints in Mauritius, this location is home to many monkeys and features a small handicraft market at the entrance. Stunning views are guaranteed. Please note that this site will be closed starting 20/02/24 due to road closures caused by landslides.
- Chamarel Waterfalls - The tallest waterfalls in Mauritius, located within the private park of Seven Coloured Earth. This spectacular waterfall is perfect for scenic photography and is a must-see for all tourists.
- Chamarel Seven Coloured Earth Geopark - The highlight of any visit, this geopark features the Seven Coloured Earth, formed by various minerals in volcanic ash from the island’s creation thousands of years ago. It is the most visited site in Mauritius and home to the famous giant tortoises.
- Chamarel - The Chamarel viewpoint, located on the left side at the end of the village, offers views of La Gaulette village and Ile aux Benitier. The blue waters and scenic views make it an excellent spot for social media posts.
- Le Morne - This historic mountain is an integral part of Mauritius’ cultural heritage. Learn more about it from our experienced drivers as you visit this southern coast landmark.
- Maconde Viewpoint - A rare gem not often found on tour lists, this scenic viewpoint on the west coast of the island’s southern part offers a delightful surprise for photography and sea lovers.
- Riviere Des Galets - Located on the mid-southern coast, this rocky beach is home to the famous and protected Roche Galets. With no coral reef, it is a dangerous place to swim but offers stunning views. Depending on weather conditions, we may restrict stops for safety, but photos can still be taken from the vehicle.
- Rochester Falls - A hidden gem in the wild south of Mauritius, this beautiful waterfall is a popular spot for locals to jump and swim (tourists are not permitted to swim). A 7-minute walk is required to reach the falls as the road is unsuitable for cars.
- Gris Gris Beach - Located in Souillac in the south, this unique beach is a popular stop for tourists visiting the small local village.
- Telfair Garden - Situated behind the vintage Souillac police station and bus station, this garden is an uncommon tourist spot. Known for its large trees, it offers a unique experience and is great for social media photos.
- Bel Ombre - Home to the local village of St. Martin, several 5-star resorts, and the Heritage Golf Park, this scenic road offers plenty of beautiful views. The Coconut Road is also located here, and while stopping is not allowed for safety reasons, we can slow down for photos or videos.
- Surinam - The village where Rochester Falls is located, passing over the ancient bridge of Souillac, offers a unique experience not frequented by many tourists.

A lot of places to see ,wonderful package - We booked this at the last minute, against our expecting, they did a solid job. Big hats off to Mr jivin* for the patience and wonderful day. We are planning to book another tours considering they do boat trips as well. The girl on the phone was very kind and did a good job...Nice beach and plenty of places to see for the price paid. Lunch was very good with a good desert. Its windy in the south west so I would advice bringing a jacket.
