Mauritius · 3-HOUR EXPERIENCES
This is the shortlist you would send a friend: 3 3-hour experiences worth the money, each with its price, its traveller verdict and the one thing to know before you commit.
Walk from Henrietta through sugarcane fields and tropical forest to the Tamarind Falls, stopping at natural pools along the Rivière Tamarin. English and French-speaking guides such as Yudish, Olivier, and Jérémie lead the route, which includes steep, muddy sections and time to swim.
“The guide Henri was great. The tour was not too difficult, although you need good shoes, as it gets slippery.”
Walk through primary forest in Black River Gorges National Park with an English or French-speaking guide. Look for macaques, giant bats, and ebony trees, pause at mountain and sea viewpoints, then cool off with a river swim. Guides such as Rowin, Jeremy, Henri, and Eliza have led recent outings.
“La nostra guida di oggi si chiama Jeremy ed è stato molto attento alle necessità del gruppo, seguendo il ritmo del più lento. Durante il percorso, la guida si soffermava su diverse curiosità che hanno arricchito l'esperienza. Abbiamo avuto la fortuna di avvistare delle scimmie, che hanno attraversato il nostro sentiero. Indubbiamente da inserire tra le attività della permanenza a Mauritius.”
Meet your French- or English-speaking guide at Gris Gris Public Beach. Walk forest trails, volcanic coast, deserted beaches, and wet river crossings, then cool off in waterfalls and sea pools. This active outing suits fit adults who want nature rather than a bus tour.
“L'excursion ne dure pas 3h mais 2h30 , et encore en ne marchant pas vite. C'est une belle excursion mais je trouve que 50 euros est trop cher pour la prestation, par rapport à l'île aux bénitiers ( bateaux , dauphins, barbecue, boisson etc)”
Pick a coast, a crater or a kitchen.
