We had an incredible day exploring the south of Mauritius! The tour was perfectly organized and full of variety. One of the highlights was visiting La Vanille Nature Park, where we saw giant tortoises and impressive Nile crocodiles up close. It was such a unique and exciting experience! We also stopped at Rhumerie de St Aubin for a rum tasting. The setting was beautiful, and learning about the rum-making process while sampling different flavors was a real treat. The south of the island is wild, scenic, and absolutely stunning. This tour is perfect if you want to discover a different side of Mauritius beyond the beaches. Highly recommended! 🍃🐊🥃
Highly satisfied with our recent South Tour! We visited the crocodile park, which was a great experience, and then went for a Rum tasting at St Aubin. The tasting was a highlight.. we tried many different flavors of rum. The Vanilla one was definitely the best!! A very enjoyable and informative day out.
