5.00We needed the services of a guide for tours, it was with Mrs Eddy Granada that we had the pleasure of discovering part of the island of Réunion. We learned a lot by listening to him, the discussions quickly became exchanges, sharing and always with kindness and respect, we really enjoyed the guided tours with him, if we had a great holiday in Mauritius, he contributed to it, so merzi jewel missié Eddy and maybe soon!
Sebastian is a wonderful guide.

5.00Superb day with a particularly considerate driver/guide, knowing how to draw your attention to these little details that make you enter the life of the island and feel its vibration. Very interesting visit with the immigration office and the slavery museum: with a past like this, the peaceful coexistence of so many different cultures is a magnificent nose to the arrogance of the settlers.
Very interesting visits

5.00I am satisfied with Mautourco's services. Transfer and visit appointments were ad hoc. Representative Marie Michelle is a very pleasant, professional person. I had an exchange of visits and a refund of the difference for a cancellation I made. The excursions live up to the description. Thanks to Nawshad Coomar for his presence and explanations. She is a beautiful smiling and interesting person. I went under 6 degrees with the hood that protects beautiful memories full of head.

5.00With the scents and landscapes of Mauritius still in our hearts we would like to thank Miss Devi Poorum in particular for the perfect organization with which she assisted us. All arrival unfortunately the luggage had not arrived, he immediately gave us directions on how to do. Air Mauritius in these cases for the first small necessities from a contribution of 40 euros per person. Throughout the holiday we relied on his advice. We did an organized tour, very well, and rented cars, we also had a personal driver. We highly recommend this company. Thank you very much.
Fantastic way to see Mauritius

5.00We had two day trips with Mautourco - one to the south and one, an historic tour including Port Louis and the botanical gardens. Our guide Raggoo could bug have been better , very knowledgeable and made a huge effort to stop and show us things - like the red pineapple and the pink pigeons which other guides were driving past. He also bought us some chili pineapple to try. A very safe driver and would highly recommend his skills.
Highly recommend the capital and the north tour with Raggoo

5.00We had the private tour with Sunil Raggoo. Our tour was Stroll in the Past, mainly the capital Port Louis, Sugar Factory Museum, Botanical Garden and the north of the island. Raggoo is a very professional tour guide. He did not only drop us in the places but in our visits he really guided us explaining the history of the island, hidden gems and answered all our questions. Due to heavy rain, we were not able to visit the Botanic gardens, as it was closed. However, Raggoo did not mind to change the route and took us to the north of the island (Grand Baie) and showed us other beauties of the island. 2 days before this tour, we had another tour to the South of the Island (group tour) with another tour agency and we really regretted that we did not do the same tour with Raggoo, as he explained us even about the places there that we did not hear from the other tour guide. Overall, we were very pleasant with the tour that he gave us. We highly recommend to book the tour with him if you are seeking for a friendly and professional service and would like to learn about the island and its history.

4.00Gorgeous garden, but essential to take a guide at the entrance, they cost little €2-3 each but it's worth it at least you know what you're looking at They all speak a bit of languages
