Unforgettable family experience - We booked a private catamaran family tour, and it was an absolutely unforgettable experience. Visiting Gabriel islet is simply paradisiacal, with crystal clear waters ideal for snorkeling. We had the chance to observe a wide variety of fish, but also to swim with rays and turtles, a magical moment! The crew was exceptional, caring from start to finish, always attentive and warm. The boat is beautiful, very comfortable and perfectly maintained. A great crush also for the food, which was great quality and really delicious. We recommend this excursion with your eyes closed!

Memorable Catamaran Cruise - Had a fantastic full day experience with Blue Safari during our Mauritius trip. The catamaran cruise was extremely well organized — smooth sailing, great crew, delicious food and just the right balance of relaxation and activity. The team was warm, attentive, and made sure everyone onboard was comfortable throughout. One of the highlights of the trip — highly recommended.

great trip! - We had a wonderful dat during the trip. The very morning wheather was not perfect and we were told that the trip to the island was not possibile. We decided to go anyway and in the end the captain decided it was safe to go and we had a wonderful day. Also lunch was very tasty and Gabriel island is beautiful. Definitely recommended.

A nice day at sea - A lovely day at sea. Plenty of room on the boat with nice crew who were both happy and gave good service. Food and drink was clearly affordable what could be improved was information about surrounding islands and other interesting information in English. The local information provided was in French.

Deceotive marketing. They adveetise for 3 islands and leave you on one! - Staff very incooperative and rude. Once they get your money, it does not matter what type of experience you have. They will be nice only at the end, when they have to ask for tips. To AVOID AT ALL COSTS.

Catfished - We were extremely disappointed with this trip. Prior to booking, we specifically contacted the organiser to request photos of the catamaran so that we could make an informed decision. Our main considerations were the size of the vessel and the amount of shade available. Unfortunately, the catamaran we were placed on was completely different from the one shown in the photos provided. The boat was much smaller, had very limited shaded areas, and the bathroom facilities were not up to an acceptable standard. This felt misleading, as the decision to book was based on the images shared, which did not reflect the actual vessel used. For this reason, we would not recommend booking this experience as you’ll never know what boat you will be on.
