Excellent trip enhanced by our driver/guide, Ragesh. His knowledge, experience and flexibility throughout the day was outstanding. Port Louis has to be experienced as does the botanical gardens and with an expert driver/guide like Ragesh it can be achieved even on very hot days.

We had a great day yesterday with our guide Ahmade Conter. He came to our hotel on time to pick us up. Some things about the island were explained to us during the trip and we got to see more than we expected. For us, this trip was 100% worth it. Many thanks to Ahmade Conter

Paul was a great guide and explained everything to us in German. The driver (English) was also very nice. In the beginning, it's a bit of a coffee trip, since "certain" stops are approached. But you don't have to buy anything either.

Our Guide was really nice. Took is to all places and told us on the way a lot about places, people and the Culture.

A full day of wonderful experiences. So many more things to see than we expected in the timescale.
