Incredible experience! - We went on a honeymoon with our daughter to the Beachcomber Cannonier Hotel in the north of the island where we were received by Avila (Manager Mautourco) whom we would like to thank for his kindness, his smile full of sun and his availability. We made 2 excursions: - Cultural tour Port Louis (private guide) / We made this tour accompanied by Vinesh whom we thank so much for his professionalism, culture and kindness. We were able to discover in a less touristic way and very well advised these highlights of the north of the island. - Due West / This catamaran trip to discover the dolphins and the Île aux Bentitiers was incredible. We had a super friendly and helpful crew that we also thank for this day. Although we could see the dolphins, a small negative on the place too touristic. You will understand, we recommend Mautourco with your eyes closed. The RENAULT family

Two great excursions - We made two excursions, both very rich and interesting. We had an excellent guide, Sebastian, who we recommend with great pleasure! He explained the history of the island, the customs of Mauritians, we even talked about gastronomy! He showed us as much as possible, was very available and was keen to share his passion for his island. He didn’t count his time and preferred to come home later rather than give up taking us to unhappy cape. A big thank you Sébastien for these two very rich days and wonderful memories!

Excellent private guided tour in Mauricius - We would like to thank Sebastian Rose for our guided tour. He was excellent driver and excellent guide. We would recommend him to all travellers who would like to go on their own and to have a private guided tour in Mauricius.

Sunil RAGOO ⭐️⭐️‐️‐️‐️ - The note is for one thing only, our wonderful driver and guide, Sunil RAGOO. It is a well of knowledge that does not just drop you off during the excursions sold by the hotel, it accompanies you and explains to you with seriousness, humor and a lot of heart the history of its island I’ll know on the fingertips. He made us discover the real Mauritius, especially at the market and in the surroundings by leaving the tourist paths: Dahl Puri, roti, pineapple tamarind sauce. Happiness!!! Do not hesitate to ask this driver for your excursions and more specifically for the grapefruit garden. Palm trees will have no secrets for you. Bottle palm, royal palm, passenger palm, millionaire palm, bamboo palm and other trees and aromatic plants, we have become ungluable! Thank you Sunil (RAGOO) for these two days with you.

Superb company and driver Eddy is amazing in showing the beauty of Mauritius - This was our 2nd trip with Mautourco and we asked if we could have Eddy again and they obliged. We went to botanical gardens, sugar world tour, st Louis city visit, church at Notre dame auxiliatrice de cap malheureux. Absolutely fantastic day again and we could not praise Eddy any higher. His English, knowledge and patience has made our Mauritius visit truly unforgettable. Thankyou Eddy.

Javed was the star of the show - My mum and I had a great time on this trip with our guide, Javed. His English was exemplary and he didn’t laugh at my feeble attempts at French! He offered us the opportunity to alter the itinerary slightly, to avoid the traffic, which we appreciated. All stops were enjoyable, especially to see the animals at the Botanical Gardens.
