ESOTICO Mauritius sud-occidentale con Ebony JEEP Forest Safari e pranzo

It was a perfect day. So many discoveries in one day. Our driver was incredibly kind and made us discover his island and its history with passion. He did not hesitate to make a few more stops including a stop to taste Mauritian specialties (in addition to the planned basic meal). Thank you again.

Overall a great day visiting the sights of the south of the island. By far the best part was the jeep safari through the Ebony forest. The guide was very knowledgeable and it was great finding out about the conservation work they are doing to help preserve the indigenous species. Breathtaking views throughout! We missed a visit to the temple, although unsure why. Communication from the driver wasn't great, with little to no explanation when we started the day about the itinerary. Our first stop at 9am was to a local shop for Rum tasting, which turned out to be a shop full of cashmere etc. We didn't think this was appropriate and ultimately led to us missing a stop on our tour. Local restaurant for lunch was great, with tasty local food on offer. Would recommend Ebony Forest but perhaps not the full tour.

Nice trip and well organized. Our driver Sanjay was right on time to pick us up. Small misunderstanding about drinking water which we thought was provided but turned out not to be so. Stopped along the way so we could buy so solved. Good driver and very friendly. Of the tour itself we didn't think trou au cerf was worth it (you don't see enough of it and besides we weren't anticipated on the sudden rainstorm that apparently is often there (neither driver nor we had umbrella so soaking wet back in the car), also grand basin is not worth it . The hindu temple on the holy water was ok. Of Alexandra falls we could not really see that much from the vantage point (maybe if you do the 3 km walk?). The real highlights of this trip are Chamarel seven coloured earth including giant turtles and waterfall and with dot on 1 the jeep safari through the beautiful ebony forest. Very friendly welcome and guide. The day trip would have been a little more pleasant for us if we had known in advance where we could have a drink and go to the toilet (Chamarel seven coloured earth delicious coffee and toilet available) . At the start of jeep safari toilet and at the vantage point during the trip possibility to eat and drink something small. The lunch that was included we found okay but reasonably late.. picked up at hotel at 8 am and lunch only at 14:30....

Generally a lovely trip with many great experiences and beautiful views. We had our own driver/guide, Jameel, on the whole trip, which was great. He was cute and easy to understand and adjusted the ride and pace after us. Only minus was the guide on the jeep ride: He was a very sweet und man, but was difficult to understand (his English was not super good), so we did not get all the information with. Also a good lunch. It is definitely a trip that we would recommend!

We were looking forward to this trip. The taxi picked us up early but took us to a Zoo instead of where we should have gone. After I phoned they confirmed we were on the wrong trip, we wasting two hours, we eventually ended up on the correct tour. However having wasted the best part of the morning we failed to make up the time so didn’t end up missing 40% of the excursion. We requested a refund and have yet to get confirmation from the operator of trip advisor that this will happen?

The places we visited were breathtaking each stop had its own unique charm. Mauritius definitely has beatiful beaches and the nature views are simply worth seeing. Not only the views but the local food culture was also a highlight of the trip. It’s diversity gave us so many options to choose from and nothing disappointed.

Nice tour, but also a little long day with a 10-year-old. Great views, special nature and big turtles, monkeys and gekkoes on the trip. Good driver (Jameel), who quietly told about the trip.

We really enjoyed our day with Hans, our driver/guide. The Hindu temple at Grand Bassin was amazing, and Hans answered our many questions as he accompanied us as we walked round. The Ebony Forest jeep safari and Chamarel coloured earths were well worth visiting, and the lunch was both tasty and filling.

Major road to chamade is closed and this is the only company I found willing to do the tour with an affordable budget. Again great trip and wonderful service by our driver who had a complicated Hindu name but was a lovely person. Cheers to the team. The monkeys we saw was an amazing experience although they seemed aggressive . Would book with them anytime am back.

Great tour of everything the SW has to offer. A private tour (just my wife & I) with super friendly & helpful Ruch. Tasted local cuisine which was delicious. View spots were great. The 7 colour earth sight is a bit overrated, in my opinion, but still worth a visit.
