5.00The crew was very helpful, always asked if we needed any drinks, etc. It was great, they deserve a bonus for sure. I am also very happy because the trip was very smooth, wasn’t full ( there were about 31 people on board) so we could sit almost anywhere we wanted to. It was an awesome idea to have a net at the front of the boat as well. The snorkeling part was okay, not much to see to be honest. There were about 3-6 types of fish - not much. The island part was nice, but there wasn’t a lot to do there except the small things like parasailing. We had a great captain with a great music taste! :)

4.00Yesterday I went on a catamaran trip with my Best friend and it was truly an amazing experience! A big thank you to Aldo, Ethan, Berty and Kishan for their warm welcome, kindness and professionalism. The atmosphere was great from start to finish! Special thanks to Krish for the shuttle service — he was very punctual and friendly. Everything was well organized and we felt safe and well taken care of throughout the day. I highly recommend this excursion. It was an unforgettable moment! ✨

5.00I booked catamaran excursion to visit Ile aux cerf and waterfall, beautiful boat experience, with soft drinks and alcoholic drinks open bar, typical cuisine and grilled meat and fish. Affordable prices, friendly and professional staff, they made us have so much fun, we also managed to see dolphins near sea bass farm. With other boat they make visit waterfall and see landscape with plants and makaki monkeys. There are bathing stops near the coast, beautiful sea, and even a few hours stop on Isola dei Cervi. I remember Nesta very nice cabin crew. Duration catamaran tour of about 9 hours. I recommend it.
Catamaran ok!!

5.00Everything was absolutely fantastic. We could not fault a single thing. The Catamaran we were on was called the Fantasea by Tino Boats. The first thing we noticed was the punctuality and efficiency of the embarkation process. Once on board we were immediately briefed on our itinerary and we were put at ease by the skipper. The team allowed us to enjoy the boat and the experience to the max. They were never intrusive or abrupt in any way. We were allowed to move about as much as we liked. We went to see the Waterfall into the ocean and then went swimming and snorkelling in the beautiful turquoise waters. After building up an appetite we had the most delicious Barbecue lunch on the boat. The menu consisted of grilled chicken, grilled fish and sausages, with a variety of breads, pasta, rice, salads and sauces. The food was just superb and once again the team were extremely prompt and efficient. Making sure that we were all fed quickly. The food provided is more than enough and the crew encouraged us to take seconds and even thirds. With regard to the drinks, there were alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages available. These are all included in the package and once again we were offered top ups to our drinks repeatedly and there were no limitations in this regard, which I found very impressive. We then stopped at the island of Ile aux Cerfs for approximately an hour and a half of beautiful relaxation and chill time on the beach. Thereafter it was back to Mauritius with a lively party on board with music, singing and dancing. Once again the guests were offered drinks repeatedly which is so generous considering that it is a business after all. This was overall our best all-round experience while visiting Mauritius especially in terms of value for money. Our crew of Jerry, Hansley, Sean and Nesta really outdid themselves. My partner and I were actually amazed by the hospitality, manner and kindness of the crew. They were what really made the experience special and are truly a credit and asset the company. I have no complaints, only praise for this experience. One tip for anyone who may be going is to carry a large towel. Not only will you need it after the snorkelling, but you will also need something to sit on when you reach the island of Ile Aux Cerfs. There are loungers available on the beach but they are charged at 300 rupees per lounger. If you find yourself in Mauritius, please do not hesitate to book this experience.
