Our driver for the Chamarel Tour was Keni, who was very friendly, informative and a save driver. We were able to adjust our itinerary so we could fit in a helicopter flight from Chameral at the start and then did the itinerary in reverse order, skipping the Rhumery and local restaurant (which we weren't interested in), which was very useful. A lovely day out and got to see some great views.

A perfect day

We had a super day with our driver Sameer, who not only took us to the excursion sites but also told us the history of the island. Every single stop was a highlight for us.

Everything is fantastic!

We were looking for a guide in Spanish but it could not be arranged, and they sent Sameer in his place with whom we understood each other very well in English; he was a fantastic guide, the pickup, journey, and accompaniment were all great, we were traveling with a baby and he helped us a lot at all times. Highly recommended!

Chamarel tour

Our driver/guide Sameer was friendly and informative about Mauritius past and present and didn't hurry us at all throughout the day. He also offered to stop at any time for photos. A very good tour, the optional lunch was delicious.

Kevin was very knowledgeable about the places he took me to. And at the end of the tour we finished up at the fruit and veg markets in Port Louis. Time was a little short as I didn’t want to miss the cruise ship and would have like to see some other sites.
