5.00We had an unforgettable experience on our quad bike ride to the Valley of 23 Colours in Mauritius, thanks to Agnes, our exceptional guide. As soon as we arrived, she welcomed us with a warm and communicative smile that immediately put at ease. Throughout the excursion, her listening was impeccable: always attentive to everyone, she made sure that the whole group felt safe, comfortable, and above all, that we enjoyed the moment to the fullest. Thanks to it, we discovered beautiful landscapes in a friendly and relaxed Mood. His good humour and professionalism greatly contributed to making this event unforgettable. Thank you Agnes for your energy, benevolence and smile that will remain etched in our memories!

5.00San was a very good driver and very informative about the history of mauritius. His driving from our hotel to the various locations was excellent. We can recommend San to friends that are planning to come and visit mauritius. Very good experience.
Beware Its Not worth the pricey cost.

1.00I used the Bonjour Mauritius on Viator for taxi service to Vallee des Couleurs, La Vanille Nature Park and Gris Gris. The cost was pricey. The taxi driver was on time for pick up. Surprisingly he got me to the 3 locations. At his arrival, he didn't know where he was taking me to. He did not speak English so giving him details was difficult. Before the first location, he stopped on a two lane road and parked on the road. Blocking the traffic using that lane. He then went to a building across the road. He came out with an orange. Another stop he left me sitting in the car while he waited in line at the ATM machine. Another stop from “HIS” to do list: petro station he got 3 liters of gas and a water bottle. The taxi had AC but he didnt want to use it. I would ask for AC,he turned it in for a brief time, then the windows were opened. This is a tropical climate -hot and humid. He only opened the sliding door on the van at the hotel pick up and at Vallee Couleurs reception area. Other times in parking lots I had to open and shut the van door, while he sat in the driver seat. Gris Gris was a photo stop. I headed back to the van. He lifted his cigarette, indicating we were not leaving till he finished his cigarette. Another to do off his list-smoke a cigarette. I never heard another vehicle use their horn. I quit counting how many times the driver used his horn-cars, trucks, bicycles, pedestrians and dogs. His impatient driving, fast speed, last minute braking found the taxi nearly on the vehicles, bikes and pedestrians.
UNPLEASANT EXPERIENCE

1.00The drivers car broke down twice during our way to the nature park, he was bluntly rude numerous times and took us to destinations that were not as per our schedule. It was such a waste of time and tourists would not enjoy the company and experience at all!
An incredible experience!

5.00We had an amazing day exploring the south of the island. Our driver, Raj was brilliant, he made us feel very safe on what can be dangerous roads in Mauritius, he was very knowledgeable and interesting to listen to. The highlight for us was feeding the giant tortoises at La Vanille, we felt we had just the right amount of time at each stop too.
Great day out

5.00Brilliant day out with lots of activities at the valley and different places to eat, staff were very friendly. We particularly enjoyed the animal park and feeding the giant Tortoises! Our driver Fricash was very friendly with lots of knowledge of Mauritius. He even took a detour to show us the giant hindu statues at the grande bassin! Thank you 😊
It was good to see the colors and the visit was great.
