    Fantastic day with Veer!

    ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ A wonderful day with Veer! We had an absolutely wonderful and unforgettable day exploring the south of Mauritius with our driver Veer. 🇲🇺❤️ Our tour took us to the beautiful Le Morne Beach, followed by the spectacular Macondé Viewpoint, then to Wapalapam, where we had a delicious meal, and afterwards we visited Flic en Flac. Veer is an excellent driver. He drove very safely and calmly, and we always felt completely comfortable with him. He was friendly, attentive and cheerful throughout the entire day. What we especially appreciated was how much he told us about Mauritius, its people, culture and everyday life. This made the journey itself a wonderful part of the experience. We felt very well looked after from beginning to end. Veer showed us some beautiful places and made our day truly special. We highly recommend Veer and would absolutely choose him again for another tour! 🌴☀️🇲🇺 Thank you so much, Veer, for such a fantastic day!

    Very disappointed with the company

    When getting in the car the driver puts signal that we need to make some stops (5 of 8). I get him the schedule I had to pay online and the driver tells me that HOLE to the deer is too far. After minutes of showing him he ended up going there driving fast. He didn't even know where to take us. We had to go to Curepipe and Floréal , the driver didn't even take us , besides he didn't even know what he had to see . I paid a private tour and not even a review by the guide who is not guide. Very disappointed with this provider and I will ask for a refund because I have not done everything the planned schedule I wouldn't go through them again.

    Enjoyable day out but not what was sold by Viator

    Difficult review to write. Unhappy with Viator whose description said there would be 7 specific stops - we only got 3 of them. Taxi driver said road had been closed since March, so Viator should not have sold this tour. Also driver, who was a very nice guy, was just that - a driver and not a guide, so no explanations of places visited or passed. Having said all that, we all, a family of 6, really enjoyed our day out (7.5 hours) with a picnic lunch supplied by our hotel. Taxi was comfortable and the places we visited were interesting despite our driver saying he was unaware of the itinerary promised by Viator. Overall still good value for the cost.

    Shame on Viator

    Saw the memorable sights of southern Mauritius. However the logistics of our tour were terrible. Got off to a rocky start when our driver was over 1 hour late. There was a whole todo over which driver and which car. The guide/driver drove us around with no explanation unless we asked; pretty much all he said was "I'll be in the parking lot." Shame on Viator!

    Response from the operator: Hello. On that day,we were really confused on where the ship would arrive. A guide came to you and told you to wait a little bit as there was a heavy traffic and you said that you would wait. You only had to wait for 15 mins not an hour. Concerning the driver, he told our company that you were with 4 people and you weren't talking, so he was a bit hesitant to talk to you. We were really flexible towards you and sent you many mails and responses,that's why we always told you that cruise ship is really hard as there are many people at the port and our team made sure to reply and talk to you. You also asked us whether it was a smoking car and we replied with no, that it is a no smoking car Anyhow our company team would like to apologise for what may have happened. We hope that you are still enjoying your holidays. Thank you Best regards Mauritius Taxis Transfer Team

    Full Day Private Tour in South of Mauritius: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Port Louis.

    How much does Full Day Private Tour in South of Mauritius cost?

    +

    Prices start at $103 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Port Louis usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Full Day Private Tour in South of Mauritius take?

    +

    Plan for about 6 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Port Louis is not rushed.

    Is Full Day Private Tour in South of Mauritius worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 50 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (3.4/5 across 7 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Port Louis, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Full Day Private Tour in South of Mauritius?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Full Day Private Tour in South of Mauritius suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 6-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Full Day Private Tour in South of Mauritius?

    +

    Around 2 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Port Louis can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Port Louis and add a light layer if any part of the 6-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Full Day Private Tour in South of Mauritius start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Port Louis within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Port Louis?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Port Louis experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Mesmerizing south west guided tour of mauritius. (Vallé optional), Private taxi : North guided tour of mauritius., Port-Louis Street Food Tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Port Louis?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Port Louis?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

    What is included in Full Day Private Tour in South of Mauritius?

    +
