Great experience. Lovely team! Absolutely worth the money. The trip lasted about 5 hours. We had a beyond enriching experience. Had plenty of food. They ensured vegetarian food was available as per our dietary preference. Must do for every age group. It was the highlight of our trip to Mauritius

Great one day experience on a nice boat very limited sailing most of the time we motored. very friendly crew, stayed two hours on the island which was nothing too spectacular. Food was good, but not a lot for everybody. Drinks whereas described.
Awesome day with amazing people and even better rum.

Easy to find, lots to drink (soft and alcoholic) great lunch and fun people. It was also much quieter than all the other tours we passed, smooth sailing.
Totally worth the money and the day

Tour is beautiful, confortable and clean boat/catamaran size, crew is very friendly and polite (Patrick and Scott). We were only eight passengers that day and each person had plenty of space to relax and enjoy the ride! There were good drinks (wine, rum, beer, sparkling water etc) and they prepared some vegan food for me, while the others had a barbecue. I totally recommend it.
A great experience

We have just returned from a wonderful day on the Island Hopper Catamaran. The day was amazing, only eight of us on board, we had drinks flowing all day and a delicious lunch cooked by the lovely Scott. Patrick (the Skipper) and Scott made the trip by being friendly and helpful and couldn’t have looked after us better. Thank you both very much.

Very pleasant day towards the deer island. Not at all crowded like on some boats. About fifteen adults and two children. The flight crew is great! Professional but nice. To advise without moderation!
Absolutely fun

Our team was late by 30mins but they waited for us with no problem. Drinks were flowing for all 6hours and food was delicious. Staff was friendly and the ppl we found on the boat. They also played our playlist and the tour guide was very informative.
Superb day

A wonderful experience. A must do in Mauritius. Pricing can be a bit competitive. The people were nice. The food was good. One of the washrooms was a bit of a challenge. However, the guidance was appropriate.
