Tour
Experience the wild beauty, spiritual heart, and dramatic landscapes of southern Mauritius on an unforgettable full-day discovery tour. Your journey begins inland with a stop at Curepipe and a visit to a traditional miniature ship-model workshop, showcasing delicate Mauritian artisanal craftsmanship. Ascend next to Trou aux Cerfs, a dormant volcanic crater surrounded by lush vegetation that offers sweeping panoramic vistas across the central plateau. Travel deeper into the highlands to Grand Bassin (Ganga Talao), the sacred crater lake watched over by monumental statues of Shiva and Durga, revered as the spiritual center of Mauritius. Continuing south through the native rainforests of the Black River Gorges National Park, take in breathtaking canyon viewpoints and vistas extending toward the iconic Le Morne Brabant peninsula. Savor a traditional Mauritian lunch—either at La Rhumerie de Chamarel or Chez Ruben—amidst scenic mountain views. The day concludes with the natural wonder of Chamarel: marvel at the majestic Chamarel Waterfall and the world-famous Seven Coloured Earths, where ancient volcanic dunes shimmer in natural shades of ochre, purple, and red.
