What you'll see and do
Flic En Flac Beach
Flic en Flac If you want to relax on the beach, catch a tan and meet some friendly locals, Flic en Flac is the place to be. With its white beaches fringed with Casuarina trees, it is a popular location for weekend beach activities such as swimming and snorkelling, and also has a wide range of bungalows for rent. When you’re done soaking up the sun there are a number of restaurants to choose from, and a lively nightlife. When the moon is full, the starry sky is clear and the rain ‘walks’ over the ocean far on the horizon, you can see a tiny white moon-rainbow over the sea. Rub your eyes, blink hard and look again… Yes, it’s true!

The Martello Tower Museum
Martello Tower at La Preneuse The Martello Tower at La Preneuse was built by the British between 1810 and 1846 to protect them against their sworn enemy, the French navy. Since being restored in 1999, the tower is now accessible for guided tours. If you have some time to spare, take a dip in the sea at La Preneuse. The scenery is dominated by the beautiful Black River mountain range and the unmistakeable shape of the Le Morne mountain that towers over the transparent lagoon below. Be careful of the strong current!

Case Noyale
Case Noyale and La Gaulette In these small fishing villages, you can find cheap rooms, apartments and guesthouses to stay in, which is great for kitesurfers on a budget. What better way to discover and appreciate how the locals live, work and play! From there you can drive up to the plateau and see the exquisite views from Chamarel and other tourist sites. You can also take a boat ride to Ile aux Bénitiers or, for the more adventurous, go kitesurfing at Le Morne.

Le Morne
Le Morne The mountain of Le Morne is a UNESCO World Heritage site and a commemorative landmark of the harsh slavery period in Mauritius. Protected by the mountain’s isolated wooded and almost inaccessible cliffs, the escaped slaves formed small settlements in the caves and on the summit of Le Morne. The traditions associated with the maroons have made Le Morne a symbol of the slaves’ fight for freedom, their suffering and their sacrifice, all of which have relevance to the countries from which the slaves came – the African mainland, Madagascar, India and South-East Asia.

Tour guides - Ibrahim, Christopher and Iqbal amazed us! This company is truly one of its kind.
Ibrahim, Christopher and Iqbal amazed us! This company is truly one of its kind. We would like to say our special thank you to Ibrahim. He was the one that gave us an amazing tour around the island and showed us some spots that no one has seen before. Moreover he went an extra mile and found us Guawa to try, coconut juice and even showed us a tree from "Avatar". His genuine customer service and passion for what he does truly inspired us and tought us so much at the same time. Thank you for your stories and for your shared knowledge with us. You will always be a part of our special occasion and we will always remember your kindness and professionalism.

Private Full-Day Tour of the West & South-West of Mauritius: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Trou d'Eau Douce.
How much does Private Full-Day Tour of the West & South-West of Mauritius cost?
+
Prices start at $145 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Trou d'Eau Douce usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Private Full-Day Tour of the West & South-West of Mauritius take?
+
Plan for about 7 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 Trou d'Eau Douce is not rushed.
Is Private Full-Day Tour of the West & South-West of Mauritius worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 48 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 2 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Trou d'Eau Douce, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Private Full-Day Tour of the West & South-West 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 Private Full-Day Tour of the West & South-West of Mauritius suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 7-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Private Full-Day Tour of the West & South-West of Mauritius?
+
Around 1 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 Trou d'Eau Douce 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 Trou d'Eau Douce and add a light layer if any part of the 7-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Private Full-Day Tour of the West & South-West 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 Trou d'Eau Douce 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 Trou d'Eau Douce?
+
On Outty we rank every Trou d'Eau Douce experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Mauritius full day : Private north tour, Ile Aux Cerfs full day shared catamaran with BBQ lunch & drinks, Southern Tales Tour: Crocodile Park, 23-Colored Earth & Lunch. 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 Trou d'Eau Douce?
+
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 Trou d'Eau Douce?
+
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 Private Full-Day Tour of the West & South-West of Mauritius?
+
Included: Hotel pickup and drop-off; Private tour; and Driver/guide. Not included: Lunch; and Gratuities. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Does Private Full-Day Tour of the West & South-West of Mauritius include hotel pickup?
+
Yes, pickup is offered for every traveler from 3 listed pickup locations in and around Trou d'Eau Douce.
What languages is Private Full-Day Tour of the West & South-West of Mauritius offered in?
+
It is offered in English and French. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.
Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Private Full-Day Tour of the West & South-West of Mauritius?
+
Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.
