Beautiful way to explore Ile d'Ambre!

5.00We did a 3 hour kayak trip to Ile d'Ambre with Floyd who was a brilliant guide - he knew a lot about the history of the island, about mangroves and ensured that we were all safe during the kayak trip. The trip takes you around parts of the island's coast, through mangroves, to great snorkelling spots, on the island to explore old ruins and finishes with some snacks before you kayak back to mainland.
Nothing exceptional

2.00Nothing extraordinary. Our guide is not up to standard, so bad value for money .. We think we're sailing in the mangrove , we're just taking a walk .. Small snack without interest .. In short, a bit boring as an activity if you are not lucky enough to have the right guide.
Best thing to do in Mauritius

5.00Excellent experience (the best I found in 🇲🇺). Superb guidance—from mangrove botany to Île d’Ambre history and the visit itself, and even a small discussion about inter-marriage in Mauritiius. Kayak handling and safety measures & instructions provided. . Excellent swimming spot during the tour for snorkeling with a variety of fishes. Clear instructions for finding the place, precise timing, and thoughtful refreshments. Even small details, like a shaded waiting area with chairs, are taken care of. They provide all necessities, including snorkeling equipment, sea shoes, and sealed bags to store one's belongings without risking dryness. It truly feels like they take their profession and their customers very seriously.

5.00I did a 3h kayak-tour with my husband and it was excellent. Our guide was really nice and showed us some interesting spots, including snorkelling spots, wonderful mangrove passages where we learnt on the plants and info on the colonial history of the islands. Would definitely recommend and is mainly in very calm waters.

4.00We had the wrong address, but the group kindly waited for us. This trip allowed us to discover landscapes different from those we find on the usual trails. Our two guides were exceptional: full of energy, enthusiasm and real inspiration on life. Thank you for this excursion which was much more than just a kayak ride: a rewarding experience on the ecosystem, the history of the country but also an introspection of ourselves that makes you want to rise. THANK YOU!
