Our driver Gaetan Laval Nagain made sure we had a wonderful day and showed us so many beautiful places in Mauritius. He was very friendly and polite. We learned a lot about the history of the country and had so much fun. Thank you so much Gaetan for driving us around! 🙏🏻😊

We just took a tour of the southern part of the island with Raggoo as an excellent guide!! We had a wonderful day. He passionately told us the history of Mauritius, introduced us to local crafts, the different cultures, and more specifically his own with a visit to Grand Bassin. In short, a day we will not forget. Thank you, Raggoo, for your kindness.
Nous vous remercions d’avoir pris le temps de partager votre retour. Nous sommes ravis que vous ayez passé une journée inoubliable avec Ragoo. Au plaisir de vous revoir pour d’autres découvertes avec Mautourco . Cordialement L ’Équipe du Service Clientèle de Mautourco
We have done two private day trips exploring Mauritius, and both drivers were very knowledgeable, polite, and friendly. Great to hear about the history of the island, the nature, and daily life. Highly recommended!

Your recommendation is greatly appreciated, and we hope to have the pleasure of welcoming you again on your next visit to Mauritius. Kind regards, Diane
HUGE DISAPPOINTMENT, we settled a taxi for 5 hours for a transfer from hotel to hotel, we were allowed to stop only at one place all for 6,700 rupees; more unfriendly welcome; we felt we were fooled since we enjoyed the transport only 3 hours; we gave our feeling and in reaction they shifted us an hour for the transfer to the airport on the last day, making us arrive 1h30 before the time of the flight, whereas the delay is 3 hours. A lot of pettiness at this tour operator that I obviously advise against.
Chers Monsieur, Nous vous remercions d’avoir pris le temps de partager votre retour avec nous et sommes sincèrement désolés d’apprendre que cette sortie n’a pas pleinement répondu à vos attentes. Après vérification auprès de nos équipes et analyse des données GPS de notre véhicule, nous comprenons que vous aviez réservé une voiture avec chauffeur pour une durée de 5 heures. L’heure de prise en charge communiquée par notre représentant était 13h00. Notre chauffeur est arrivé à l’hôtel à 12h57 et est resté sur place jusqu’à 13h40. Selon les informations recueillies, vous êtes arrivés à Bois Chéri vers 15h02 et avez quitté les lieux à 15h50, avant de regagner l’hôtel Shandrani à 16h30. À votre arrivée, il semblerait que seule la dégustation de thé ait pu être effectuée, la visite de l’usine étant déjà fermée dans l’après-midi. Après cette visite, notre chauffeur nous informe vous avoir proposé de découvrir d’autres endroits dans les environs, notamment dans le Sud-Est ou à Mahébourg, ainsi que de faire un arrêt au Plaisance Mall ou au Beau Vallon Mall. Ces suggestions n’ayant pas été retenues, il vous a ensuite reconduits à votre hôtel. Nous comprenons néanmoins que cette expérience n’ait pas été aussi agréable que vous l’espériez et en sommes sincèrement désolés. Par ailleurs, sauf erreur de notre part, votre vol de départ était prévu à 18h20, avec une prise en charge organisée à 15h20. Les passagers sont généralement invités à se présenter entre deux et trois heures avant l’heure de départ afin d’effectuer les formalités d’enregistrement et de sécurité dans les meilleures conditions. Nous vous remercions encore pour votre retour, qui nous permet de rester attentifs à la qualité des services fournis à nos clients. Nous restons bien entendu à votre entière disposition pour toute information complémentaire. Cordialement, Le Service Clientele
We went on a few excursions with Maurtourco in Mauritius. We had an excellent driver and guide, Ragoo. He ensured the trips were tailored to what we wanted to do, his knowledge and enthusiasm was exceptional and he really made the trips memorable for us.

We’re absolutely delighted to hear that you enjoyed your excursions with Mautourco and that Raggoo helped make your experience so memorable.

We truly appreciate you choosing Mautourco during your stay in Mauritius and hope to welcome you again for more unforgettable experiences. Warm regards, The Mautourco Team
Very nice day with a driver at the top on the very good advice of Avila ( MONTOURCO representative at the hotel ) 149 € for 3 people ( couple and a friend ) for an individual taxi ++++++
Merci pour votre retour ✨ Ravie que la journée, les conseils d’Avila et votre chauffeur aient été au top. Au plaisir de vous revoir bientôt . Cordialement Wilma
we were lucky enough to have been accompanied on the tour “unfading tradition” by Sebastian: very nice, super available to answer any question and able to make us appreciate this wonderful island even more.
Thank you very much for your kind feedback. We are delighted to hear that you enjoyed the “Unfading Tradition” tour and that Sebastian contributed to making your experience even more memorable. We will be sure to share your compliments with him. We look forward to welcoming you back soon for more discoveries of our beautiful island. Regards, Diane
During our stay in Flic en Flac we turned to this agency for our excursions. Navim was great at explaining the various excursions and options. Due to bad weather, we postponed excursion to Deer Island and Navim was great at rescheduling everything. For three days we toured the island by private car with Joel: a very good Italian speaking driver, nice and who introduced us to the island and its culture.
Thank you for sharing your experience with us. We are delighted to hear that Navim was able to guide you through the different excursion options and handle the rescheduling smoothly when the weather required a change of plans. It is also wonderful to know that Joel’s knowledge, friendliness, and Italian-speaking support made your three-day tour around the island both enjoyable and enriching. We truly appreciate your kind words and hope to welcome you back for more discoveries on your next visit to Mauritius. Warm regards, Diane
Great tour seeing the real Mauritius. Sanjava (sorry if I got the spelling wrong) was fantastic - driver and tour guide rolled into one sharing historical, geological and modern day facts about all things Mauritius whether it was about the Arab, Dutch, French or English eras on Mauritius. Definitely worth considering if here!
Thank you so much for your wonderful feedback! We’re delighted to hear that you enjoyed the tour and had the opportunity to discover the real Mauritius. Your kind words about Sanjeeva (no worries about the spelling!) mean a lot — we’ll be sure to pass them on to him. He’ll be thrilled to know that his passion and knowledge helped make your experience so memorable. We truly appreciate your recommendation and hope to welcome you again for more adventures on our beautiful island! Warm regards, Diane
We’ve just returned from a 2 week holiday in Mauritius in which did 4 excursions with Maurtourco. Our rep Avila at our hotel arranged a meeting on our first full day & was really helpful. She listened to what we wanted & got us booked onto excursions to match. She then stayed in touch to keep us updated with times etc. Our guides were great, in particular Vasant who we had a couple of times. He’s such a friendly guy, an absolute fountain of knowledge & went above and beyond to give us a really good experience of Mauritius, its culture & history. They also provided our airport transfers (sorry, can’t remember the drivers names) but they were great too & make the airport transfer a tour in itself. And importantly, they were all always on time, if not early.
Dear Guest, Thank you so much for taking the time to share your feedback with us! We are truly delighted to hear that you had a wonderful two-week holiday in Mauritius and that you enjoyed the excursions arranged by our representative, Avila. It’s always our priority to listen carefully to our guests' preferences and tailor experiences to make their stay memorable — we’re glad Avila was able to do just that. We’re especially pleased to hear such kind words about Vasant and the rest of our team. It’s heartwarming to know that their punctuality, friendliness, and dedication helped make your time on the island even more special. Your appreciation will certainly be shared with all those involved. Thank you once again for choosing us as part of your Mauritius journey. We hope to welcome you back again in the future! Warm regards, Diane
