A day to remember in the Authentic South

Published on Jan, 2024

Our driver/guide Ibriham arrive at the port in good time. He was not only a safe driver but also very knowledgeable and patient. He showed us everything we wanted to see and answered all our questions. We had a fantastic day thanks to him!

Superb and informative experience.

This was an excellent tour! Ibrahim gave us a full history of Mauritius, explaining the multi-cultural population of the island, stopping regularly to show us things of interest that I doubt any other guide would. We stopped for lunch for some delicious Mauritius food before continuing the tour. Ibrahim is a mine of information and facts that made this experience a real highlight of our visit.

Excellent comprehensive tour

Published on Mar, 2023

Sailen picked us up at our ship and took us to see all the highlights south of Port Louis. He gave an excellent narrative along the way and answered our myriad questions. Every site was well worth seeing and Sailen knew the perfect spots to take the best pictures. He even took us to pick some wild fruit growing along the side of the road. They were called Chinese guava. They were tart but tasty and contain a lot of vitamin C. It was a great six hour trip and ended with a drop off back at our ship. Highly recommend!

Thank you Cristopher for our memories from Mauritius

Published on Oct, 2022

I booked a taxi via booking.com, and Cristopher arrived at the airport to take us to the hotel. This is how we first saw and met Mauritius. All the way to the hotel Cristopher was telling us history and interesting facts about the island and its people. We enjoyed Cristopher's company so much, that ended up booking 4 excursions with Cristophe from the agency he worked at: 1. Authentic South - Cristopher was with us at each stop, introducing us to Mauritius's beauty 2. Climbing on Le Morne Brabant - Cristopher was climbing with us, helping to find a suitable rock to step on or pull the body up by using our hands. On our way up, he was generously helping other solo tourists with advice on how to climb, as Le Morne is not the easiest mountain to climb 3. North beaches - Cristopher was giving us enough time to see each beach and swim where we wanted Time spent with Christophe - is one of our brightest memory about Mauritius. Thank you Cristophe for taking care of us and showing marvelous Mauritius from different sides! I recommend excursions with Cristophe for their high quality and moreover warm and friendly atmosphere

Our guide Sailen was...

Published on Mar, 2022

Our guide Sailen was really great - caring all the time, he showed us even more than we expected. We had many little stops during our way, where he showed us different trees and lots of natural beauty.
