City & Culture Tours & Trips in Mauritius

The cultural circuits in Mauritius run for 5 days, giving you just the right mix of guided tours and genuine local encounters. Your journey begins at Trou aux Cerfs, a dormant volcano reaching 605 meters high with a distinct cone shape that lets you take in sweeping island views. You'll spend time in traditional ship model workshops, where local craftsmen shape intricate replicas using methods passed down through generations. Our guests particularly appreciate the visit to Grand Bassin (Ganga Talao), where you'll find the island's most important Hindu site as locals gather at the crater lake and Shiva temple, walking barefoot in reverence. The central market in Port Louis offers a chance to taste local foods, while stops at the historic Caudan Waterfront, and also Marie Reine de la Paix round out the urban exploration. Nature and history come together at Pamplemousses Botanical Garden, home to native plants, healing herbs and palm collections, before the journey concludes at Cap Malheureux, where a distinctive red-roofed church stands watch over the northern waters.
