💯 Go for it! - This was one of a kind experience in life. We had the best time in the silence of a magnificent forest… The staff is absolutely incredible. Special thanks to our guide Krish who took the necessary time to explain to us a lot of things about this ethereal place. The view at the top is the reason why we called Mauritius a paradise… No words will be enough to describe it. Really recommend this jewel! 🫶🏽

Great experience - We visited Ebony Forest due to our wedding in Mauritius. On arrival, a heart-shaped tablet greeted us by name. Unfortunately we arrived a bit late and the tour was already going on but Chris our guide has come back and collected us. With the jeep we drove through the park and repeatedly made stops where we went into the forest and Chris told us everything worth knowing. We were few people so that was enough time for asking. On the way we met Franklin and Taiz (turtles). They walked free and we could feed them grasses and take pictures. They were super relaxed and it was really fun to see that they could just walk free there. We have seen huge spiders as well as birds and lizards. On the viewing platform you have an overwhelming view of the mountains and the sparkling sea where we also saw a giant flying dog.There you can also buy a snack and drink. Was included in the package for us. On the way down, Chris stopped and picked fruit from the tree. It tasted great. At the bottom, our little tree was already standing what we could plant. On a small tree disc we were able to enter the name and date and label the heart panel and take pictures. I can really recommend the tour. We had a lot of fun. Chris ist cool. Even the journey by jeep is full of experience. It stumbles 😅 and you have a great view of the park. Danke Chris 😃

Love Tree Tour - We have had the most amazing time at Ebony Forest this morning. We participated in the Love Tree tour, it was a wonderful experience from start to finish. Chris our guide was excellent, he took great care of us and shared his knowledge and passion for the forest.

Our tree of life... - ...it was simply beautiful and breathtaking...our guide Chris was our jungle hero, super...thank you very much

Perfect excursion for couples that love nature! - We visited Mauritius for our honeymoon and in advance our friends gifted us this tour. We didn´t know what to expect, but included was a short introduction to Ebony Forest, a ride in a jeep, some tasty snacks and drinks, a guided tour through the forest where we saw many different plants and animals and planting our tree was the finishing touch. Our tour guide was Chris, he had profound knowledge about the flora and fauna, as well as the history of Mauritius and was overall a really likeable and humorous person.

Excursion to do absolutely - A big thank you to Chris our guide who introduced us to the endemic plants and animals of his fabulous island. A breathtaking view. Participating in local ebony reforestation is full of meaning and emotion.

Amazing place - We visited here and did the Love tour, contacting Ebony the night before to book for the following day and they were very responsive. If you have any interest in nature then I’d really recommend visiting Ebony. We loved it - it’s so clear that the guides are super passionate about everything they’re doing and have a lot of knowledge to share. The viewpoint literally took our breath away - it is incredible! We were so lucky to visit on a clear day. Only 2 bits of constructive feedback: • we had hoped to look around the shop following our visit, but unfortunately it was closed by the time we were finished with the tour (around 5:20pm) • we would love an opportunity to get updates on our tree after it’s been planted. Will the tag be kept on the tree / will it continue to be traceable? (Didn’t see tags on any other trees!) Appreciate that this may not be feasible, but even if Ebony offered some type of sponsorship opportunity where you could commit a fee each year to continue getting updates on your tree and contribute to the work Ebony forest is doing, we’d be interested :)

Very nice love tree tour - Very nice tour including watching endemic fauna and flora, planting an endangered tree and several stops at beautiful viewpoints. Enthousiastic guide who knows a lot about the environment.

Wow- turning back time and restoring the past - Booked this experience and didn’t regret it. For me it was the highlight of all the trips we booked while on our honeymoon. Our guide Albey was considerate, friendly and knowledgeable. He gave us a real insight into the conservation and restoration work being done in the Ebony Forest as well as giving us the space and time to enjoy the experience as a couple. We saw endemic wildlife and if course learned a lot about ebony and how it is now protected. Planting our love tree was very special and took little time to do as everything was prepared for us. The jeep ride to the top of the mountain was great fun and the view don’t disappoint. We were offered hot snacks and a drink to enjoy with the view. Whilst there are a good number of visitors to this forest the plant a tree experience is possibly not so well known about, and I would really encourage couples to take this option when visiting. You really will be making a difference in continuing the work being done here by the team. Thank you x

it can be even better, with room for improvement - The communication with the provider and with/via Tripadvisor was abysmally bad, we actually didn't know until an hour before the meeting whether it would take place! Then the taxi driver called, various emails were not answered and the cancellation button refused. Guys, this is not acceptable. Then it wasn't a couples event but together with another family of 4. Why we were only allowed to plant one tree but paid for 2 people is a mystery to me. There was food, a jeep transfer, a guided tour with guide CHRIST (very competent in English & French) the best view of a mountain, great plants and a few animals to see. Overall I thought over 70 euros plus a taxi transfer of 130 euros from the north was far too expensive. Mmm, what a pity. But the idea of learning and leaving something sustainable behind was great. Just keep improving the event!
