unavoidable - A beautiful day of discovery with a very friendly driver who explained everything. Visit Chamarel, waterfall and land of 7 colors, a detour to the rumery with tasting. Then visit the Black River Gorge and visit the Hindu temple of large basin. Typical Mauritian lunch
We ended up with the deer hole in Curepipe and the model boat factory.
A busy day full of memories.
I highly recommend this excursion with this agency.
Entrance to the park and Chamarel rum are additional as well as lunch

Great trip with Alain! - Before off, a clear recommendation! Our guide Alain was great, if I could I would give him 10 stars!! Starting with the punctual pick-up, plus lots of great conversations about the culture of Mauritius, to little insider tips about the island. Alain was very attentive, let us take many photos and he also took many photos of us. Had we had more time in Mauritius, we would have booked the other tours with Alain. Thank you so much!

Excellent tour with a super lunch - A really good tour of the South West, well worth it. The guide was friendly and knowledgeable and the lunch stop was one of the best meals we had. Only thing to note if weather isn't so good may need an extra layer, you are up in the hills.

Private Tour South West Mauritius with Alain de Turquoise Flic en Flac Trips - We spent an exceptional day with our guide Alain, he took care of us, made us discover so many beautiful things and taught us many very interesting things about culture, fauna, flora, infrastructure, Mauritian and Hindu life. It was of remarkable wealth. He has a knowledge of everything and it is very pleasant. we also laughed well, enormous exchange. the visit of the southwest is very complete and varied. it is a very beautiful discovery. from Chamarel, to Curepipe, to turtles, beautiful and sociable monkeys, vertiginous views everything was perfect. We recommend this agency Turquoise voyages to Flic en Flac and its guide Alain. Great quality of service. Thank you Alain for everything.

Many thanks! - Our tour guide made our trip! He was absolutely incredible and answered all our questions. We 100% recommend doing the private tour as it’s catered to your party spend as long or as little as you want in locations. We learnt so much and visited so many beautiful places.
The only bit I personally didn’t enjoy was lunch, but that’s my preference on taste, so many others enjoyed, my husband included. I wish I could have upgraded my lunch at the restaurant!

Great experience with a fantastic knowledgeable guide - Collected on time by our guide Baboo, he was very friendly and extremely knowledgeable about the island and culture. Fantastic areas of beauty visited and amazing views and also seeing the monkeys and giant tortoise. Stopped off for lunch and experienced the local curry which again was very nice. Great day and Baboo was excellent

Great Tour of Mauritius from Cruise Ship - Private tour in air conditioned mini van. Our driver/guide Rajes was at the port waiting with a sign with our names. He was very personable and VERY informative! His accent made understanding difficult a few times but he was very patient and gladly repeated as necessary. We saw the Black River Gorge viewpoint, the Chameral sites (waterfall, seven coloured earths, tortoises), Alexandra Falls, and Grand Bassin Hindu Temple.. Then we had a delicious lunch at Ebony Table D'Hote, a short visit to Trou aux Cerfs, a souvenir shop and then back to the ship. We were able to beat the tour buses to most of the sites which was nice and being an independent tour, much cheaper than the crowded ship provided tours. Highly recommend this tour.
