Two very memorable tours - Javed’s an absolute diamond. - Javed drove us for both our tours - the first day round the north of the island, the second round the south. We’d had such a good experience on the first tour that we requested him for the second.
Not only did we gain extensive knowledge of the island’s history, but the life and customs of the Mauritian people. Javed was more than willing to share with us stories about his own family. In fact, by the end of the second day, we felt we’d gained a friend.
Can’t recommend Javed highly enough - but book your tour directly with Mautourco and leave out the middle man. (Kuoni’s rates were significantly higher than they needed to be.)

Very satisfied with the services - We were able to enjoy airport transfers hotel as well as 2 excursions during our stay.
The drivers of the transfers were very punctual and friendly.
We were lucky enough to be accompanied by Deepak on our excursions. He knows his island very well and shares it with us throughout the day. Thanks again to him.

A spectacular day to remember - We would like to say a huge thank you to Raggoo our amazing driver . Thank you for sharing your wealth of knowledge about Mauritius, we really appreciated it. We had a truly special day going up into the mountains, seeing the coloured rocks, the beautiful waterfalls, the Giant tortoises. We also thoroughly enjoyed the Rum tasting at Chameral.
What a fantastic day you made so special for us. Thank you Raggoo 😊

Recent Tour in Mauritius - My co-worker and I recently had a tour in Mauritius through Mautourco and Nawshad was our guide / driver. It was a real pleasure having him show us around. He was very informative, friendly and always kept us in line with our schedule. We had a really great experience.

Notable sights and slices of Mauritian life - We booked a day tour through our very helpful Rep Imtiaz/. It was called the Wild South. Our Driver Joel was an excellent and informative guide, good fun and as he got to know us, tailored everything to our interests too. The tour was a great introduction to some beautiful natural spots and phenomenon, also including a visit and lunch at a Rum Distillery with tour and tastings. The whole day was very relaxed and yet still covered a huge amount from notable sights to funny little slices of Mauritian life pointed out by Joel. We are very grateful to him for his time and care in making sure that we enjoyed our day.

Excursion with Eddy - We made some excursions via Mautourco during our stay. It was very good. Then came our last excursion with a driver I will name: Eddy GRENADE. What an encounter!! A golden man, passionate and in love with his island. A day filled with memories, surprises and sharing. A great life lesson...
I hope my opinion will be brought back to him. Thanks, Eddy.

Avoid Mautourco – Disrespectful, Disorganized, and Disappointing - Our experience with Mautourco was an absolute nightmare and left a terrible first impression of Mauritius.
We prepaid EUR 95 for an airport-to-hotel transfer for our family—including two young children—expecting to be greeted on arrival. Instead, no representative was there, no signage, no contact, and no support. After a long international flight, we were left stranded in the airport and forced to pay for our own taxi in cash.
Mautourco later claimed we were a "no-show" because we didn’t locate their desk buried somewhere in the arrival hall. At no point did they try to reach us, and there was zero visible presence or assistance. Their excuse? A single vague sentence in the confirmation email instructing us to go to a counter—something you’d expect them to manage proactively, not leave to exhausted guests to figure out.
Even worse, their customer service was cold and robotic. They refused a refund for a service they blatantly failed to deliver. They didn’t even bother to get my name or gender right in their email replies—calling me "Mrs" despite the fact that we had multiple face-to-face interactions with their staff during our stay, and it was clear I am a male traveler. This only highlights how little care or attention they pay to their guests.
To anyone planning a trip to Mauritius: avoid Mautourco at all costs. If your hotel tries to book them for you, say no and find another provider. They are disorganized, indifferent, and completely unreliable.
They turned what should have been a joyful start to our holiday into a frustrating and expensive ordeal.
