This is a great way to do this tour. The transport was a 14 Seater which had a great air conditioning system and was really clean and neat. The driver was superb and left us on our own at the various venues, which was great as we could explore at leisure. The driver was polite and professional, and when we got to the market, he made sure to walk us to the right places so we did not get lost. All in all, this is definitely worth the money you pay, and it was great to see all these special places in one tour.
Lovely excursion with San

My wife and I had a lovely trip with our driver San. He was very informative, accommodating to our requests and funny. His car was very comfortable (both my wife and I are over 6 foot and had good space). He is also an excellent driver, able to cope well with some adverse weather conditions. We would recommend San for anyone wanting to explore the North of Mauritius.
Wonderful Trip

It's just a taxi ride. This has nothing to do with travel guide. You should inform yourself beforehand about every possible sight. Despite the booked trip, the driver tried to change the tour again and again and wanted to lead us to some shops, tea houses or rum shops.
Nice Trip
