More Than a Driver — A Truly Exceptional Experience
I spent a wonderful week in Mauritius, and Viks played a huge part in making the experience truly "unforgettable".
What made his service so special was the opportunity to discover Mauritius not just as a tourist, but through the eyes of someone who genuinely knows and loves the island. Thanks to Viks, I was able to experience the island from a much more authentic, local perspective, discovering places, stories, and experiences that I may otherwise have completely missed.
Viks is an exceptionally kind, reliable, thoughtful, and genuinely pleasant person to spend time with. He was always available, incredibly accommodating, and went above and beyond to make sure everything was exactly as I wanted it. His flexibility was fantastic, and the service could easily be adapted and arranged around my own interests, schedule, and wishes.
Beyond being an excellent driver, Viks made every journey enjoyable. His warmth, professionalism, and local knowledge made me feel completely comfortable and well taken care of throughout my stay.
I honestly could not have asked for a better service during my time in Mauritius. If you are visiting the island and want to experience more than the typical tourist itinerary, I highly and wholeheartedly recommend Viks.
Thank you, Viks, for helping make my holiday so special. Mauritius was beautiful, but having you as my driver and guide made the experience truly unforgettable. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Go with Viks!
Viks was always on time, spotless car with water, a smooth safe drive and such an amenable chap. Comfortable car at a reasonable price. Because Viks' is local and the next generation in his family of taxi drivers, he knows all the local highlights and adapts the tour to your requirements. Perfect English and French and an educated guy with always a smile on his face. Nothing is too much trouble - thanks Viks for being part of our great holiday. PS hope the taxi driving generation will be expanded in the not too distant future!!! :)

Excellent private tour with Viks
We had an excellent experience with VKS Tours Mauritius and our guide, Viks.
Viks was punctual, friendly, professional, and very knowledgeable about Mauritius. He made the day enjoyable from start to finish, shared interesting information about the island, and took us to some truly beautiful places. He was also flexible with the itinerary and adapted it to the weather, which helped us make the most of our day.
The vehicle was clean and comfortable, communication was easy, and we always felt safe throughout the trip.
I highly recommend VKS Tours Mauritius and Viks to anyone visiting Mauritius. Thank you for a fantastic day and for helping create wonderful memories of the island!

Thank you for the fun trip.
They picked me up early in the morning, added me to the beach and took me there, and the market showed me a good place. He showed me around the seven-colored earth while also explaining it. Be punctual. It was an experience like no other that showed me Baobab. It was such a wonderful journey.
Operator response
Thank you for sharing your experience! We're so glad you enjoyed the beach, the market, and learning about the Seven Colored Earths. The baobab trees are definitely something special. It was our pleasure to show you around, and we hope to see you again soon!😊
