Description:

Discover some of the best attractions and landmarks of charming Mauritius. This tour takes you to the busy capital city of Port Louis and the incredible Pamplemousses Botanical Garden, with its rare giant Amazon water lilies. It also offers impressive sweeping views of mountains and palm trees.

Begin your tour at Fort Adelaide, a citadel with panoramic views over the city of Port Louis and its harbor. Head down to the bustling center and immerse yourself into local Mauritian life at the Central Market. Head to Blue Penny Museum, home of the rare and valuable Blue Penny stamp.

Next, journey on to the tropical village of Moka for a traditional Mauritian feast. Indulge in Creole sausages, grilled salt fish, and black lentils, served with rice, salads, and chilies. Make sure you leave some room for delicious home-made banana tart.

Skirt around the imposing Pieter Both Mountain, down the scenic Long Mountain Road toward the plains of Pamplemousses. Explore the botanical gardens, which showcase giant Amazon water lilies and many other plants indigenous to the island.
