The instructor is so clear and patient. At the beginning the kilometres seemed so long but once you’re on it, it’s fun and short. Bring along your musk to cover your mouth from the dust, it’s a lot. Have a backpack to carry your stuff and phone. Wear something with sleeves will help, there’s so much dust.

Great trip with wonderful views, very nice staff and the opportunity to get some adrenaline. Don’t be afraid to ride alone, it worth it. I decided to ride alone for the first time (not with my husband) and it was a right choice. Highly recommended.

This was really lovely. My first time snorkeling and I loved it! I went as a solo traveller. The guides were friendly, we snorkeled 3times, had a nice swim near the island, the food was also very lovely and I would definitely go again...

the best experience in Mauritius with the best locals! these were amazing friends who excite me to come back to Mauritius :) they took us to amazing spots! So happy i went

A great tour ! Ibrahim was an Excellent guide - who told us a lot about the history of places we went to. Highly recommend Destination Soleil.
