The guides are very kind, helpful and fun! I just wish I had stayed longer on the island.
Brian, Kevin and the other cute guy (sorry I can’t remember his name) work well together, efficient and professional. They made sure we saw dolphins, enjoyed snorkelling and provided us with a delicious spread of bbq food with salads. Drinks on tap from water to rum punch and always served with a friendly smile. I booked the tour for four of us and it was my friend’s B’day and we all rated it 5 star! Well done Guys, we would highly recommend!
Thank you so much for your fantastic review! We are delighted that the crew helped make your friend's birthday celebration so memorable!! We truly appreciate your recommendation and hope to welcome all four of you back again soon.
We had a great time on the cruise. There was delicious BBQ food and very attentive staff. Conditions were not ideal for snorkelling on the surface but we did see a pod of dolphins from the boat.
Thank you for sharing your experience! We are pleased that you enjoyed the cruise, the BBQ lunch, and the care provided by our team. We hope you'll have even better weather conditions on your next visit and look forward to welcoming you back on board. 🐬☀️
Excellent, everything as announced! Well-prepared professionals, very kind, polite and ready to help with whatever was needed, great food. Super recommend
Incredible experience, the staff was super cool, there was a good atmosphere we feasted on! The grill on the boat was very good and so were the ti-punch 😋
Merci beaucoup pour votre commentaire 😊. Nous sommes ravis que vous ayez passé une superbe journée à nos côtés. Nous serions enchantés de vous accueillir à nouveau, peut-être pour découvrir une autre partie de l’île en catamaran ⛵.
You may not see dolphins and no whales. The catamaran is huge! Staff nice. Good lunch and coffee and cake. We were offered different kinds of drinks throughout the trip. Music was playing on loudspeakers.
Wonderful day at sea! Staff was incredible and always available to help. Food and drinks were plentiful
I cannot recommend the trip unfortunately. Booking was easy, but I regret that we took the trip. The catamaran was not really in its best shape anymore. Many repaired marks and holes on the side. Once aboard there were (for 30 people) approx. 10 life vests visible. A safety instruction was, if you can call it that, very short. Crew seemed not really motivated and was playing their music on MAX volume. The entire time. The water was REALLY rough, which of course is not the fault of the crew, but maybe going through 5m high waves with that kind of boat for 90min is something that would`ve called for another destination. Once we got to the island, we were shuttled to the beach with a small dingy, but they left us there for 1:30-2h in 30 degrees with some shade. There was no going back and forth to the boat... everyone really wanted to go back but noone came. They prepared the food on board, which was decent. We went back, music - full blast - a lot of people got seasick ... it was, in my point, terrible. AGAIN, the rough sea is one thing ... how you deal with it is another. maybe go to another beach, maybe talk to the passengers more, maybe turn down the music once in a while (someone asked ... they reduced it a little, then back up again). Time on the island was too long. The engines had some problems we guessed, since water was getting in the bilge. No word to us. Also... on our way back we suddenly towed another catamaran which lost all engines. It seemed very ... not professionell. No word to us, no infos... Well... good luck with your business.
We had a wonderful day on board with Blue Safari. The catamaran was beautiful, spacious and very comfortable, the crew was friendly, professional, and attentive at all times, and the scenery was absolutely stunning. We enjoyed snorkeling and admiring some of the most beautiful views we’ve seen in Mauritius. I would also like to highlight the company’s professionalism and great disposition in handling feedback. Their communication and customer care were excellent, which we truly appreciated. Overall, a very well-organized experience and a great way to enjoy the beauty of Mauritius. Highly recommended.
