We were supposed to do the excursion on Saturday, but due to bad weather, it was suggested to postpone it to Sunday. I do not know if it is because it is Sunday, but we did not complete the entire tour: Large basin: we did not go to the lax, we only saw the 2 statues. Alexandra Falls: we went to the viewpoint right after, very pretty but no waterfall. Floral: Not done Return to the hotel around 1:30 PM instead of 3 PM. Suggesting a postponement is very good, but it is necessary to inform if everything cannot be done.
My guide is excellent He explain very good and so kind I satisfied this tour and recommend Excellent excellent excellent
We had our trip with Jameel. Jameel is a really nice travel companion and has shared a lot of information with us. It was a wonderful rich day trip and we enjoyed the day very much. The pace has been completely adapted to our needs. Lunch was plentiful and really delicious. Five stars - Mega
Great guide/driver, kind, respectful, nice and informative. All the sites visited were beautiful and the included lunch was delicious.
Greetings from beguided tours, we are very happy to hear that you were satisfied with our services. Thanks for the honesty and support Best regards Hans
Pickup location at dock not coordinated between driver and Viator. He claims it was supplied to him. Wasted an hour trying to find each other. Tour was good but 2h shorter than advertised (and what we paid for). He did allow us to get several good photos.
Greetings from the team, as a small private company we always focus on guests satisfaction and really hope to see you again on the island. Best regards..
Since I had such a good experience with this company last year, I decide to use them again when I returned with my friend this year. They did amazing job to ensure that my friend and I were having a good time and gave an alternative options when there was a road closure to a site. Even though, I took this tour last year I was able to still see new things. My favorite place on this tour was the Great Bassin Sacred Lake. I felt very connected there filled peace and calm. Before lunch we were offered some delicious Mauritian snacks gato del, gato pomme de terre, Baja, and some samosas. For lunch we went to Comlone restaurant and was recommended the magic bowl which I had before, and it was quite delicious. On our way home our driver was nice enough to take the scenic coastal route so we could see the coastline. I highly recommend this company because they want to make sure you have the best experience while visiting Mauritius.
Thanks sooo much Kathryne ! You are always welcomed.
Great Package Great food At 1st i was angry , the driver was a bit late and they informed me that they had traffic but as the journey went by, i realised that Mauritius is indeed paradise, Great tour with a lot of things to see , our guide was fantastic and hope he is not late again :D The food was amazing, i forgot the restaurant name but amazing waiters who gave me warm water as i was bit car sick from all the driving, in the end i must say i recommend this to those who wants to discover the south of Mauritius in Depth !
Greetings from the team . I still remember your call in the morning and once again i apologise for the small delay in the morning as traffic was bad due to road works. Am glad to see that you trusted us and enjoyed our service and finally had a a good day.
The driver was excellent, friendly and speaks English well. I was expecting a guided tour but what we have is a driver tour. The driver dropped us off at the spot and left us to walk around and follow signs. Much was left to do our own tour.
Greetings from Beguided tour, we understand your concern but please note that there are roads diversions as mentioned in the itiniary and upon Gps investigations with our driver, we concluded that in places he was supposed to give explanation, he did walk with you however certain locations such as macabe viewpoints,Chamarel coloured earth and waterfalls guide need to stay in their vehicles due to parking issues and also at the 7 coloured earth ,drivers are not given access inside as its a paid park. We deeply apologised for the misunderstanding and also glad to hear that you had a great day with our english speaking driver. Also please note that we also allocated you 1hour extra due to which you nearly missed your cruise ship and luckily i, Hans, had the right contact at the port to inform them and waited till you reach at 5hr p.m . Once again thanks for the review and really hope you had the chance to explore the South of Mauritius . Cheers
We had a great tour with Hans our driver, he was fantastic on where to take us, we saw monkeys, ate street food and was a memorable experience. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!! 👌
Greetings and thank you for those kind words and your trust. We hope to hear from you soon . Cheers
What an experience. Good food. Good views . Just start the tour early prefer say 7hr30 or 8 at last to avoid the heavy traffic. Otherwise all is good. I loved the tour . It was very hot and you will need to tell the driver to put full AC because I can notice that the Mauritians are used to the heat and they don't feel like us. I saw many Mauritians wearing jackets in the scorching sun and me and my wife was sweating a lot. But a nice experience. Thanks Beguided. We said we will give a good review and believe me it's worth the money. 💕
Greetings, we are always open to new suggestions , its true that Mauritius has a lot of traffic due to recent road modifications and upgrades. Thank you for understanding us and calmly advising us for a better experience in the future. I am sorry for any trouble caused . I am glad that you enjoyed your experience with us and trusted us with your vacation and money. Thanks a lot and hope to hear from you soon.
