Pickup location at dock not coordinated between driver and Viator. He claims it was supplied to him. Wasted an hour trying to find each other. Tour was good but 2h shorter than advertised (and what we paid for). He did allow us to get several good photos.
Response from the operator: Greetings from the team, as a small private company we always focus on guests satisfaction and really hope to see you again on the island. Best regards..

A great way to see the south side of Mauritius
Since I had such a good experience with this company last year, I decide to use them again when I returned with my friend this year. They did amazing job to ensure that my friend and I were having a good time and gave an alternative options when there was a road closure to a site. Even though, I took this tour last year I was able to still see new things. My favorite place on this tour was the Great Bassin Sacred Lake. I felt very connected there filled peace and calm. Before lunch we were offered some delicious Mauritian snacks gato del, gato pomme de terre, Baja, and some samosas. For lunch we went to Comlone restaurant and was recommended the magic bowl which I had before, and it was quite delicious. On our way home our driver was nice enough to take the scenic coastal route so we could see the coastline. I highly recommend this company because they want to make sure you have the best experience while visiting Mauritius.
Response from the operator: Thanks sooo much Kathryne ! You are always welcomed.

Mauritius paradise island ....
Great Package Great food At 1st i was angry , the driver was a bit late and they informed me that they had traffic but as the journey went by, i realised that Mauritius is indeed paradise, Great tour with a lot of things to see , our guide was fantastic and hope he is not late again :D The food was amazing, i forgot the restaurant name but amazing waiters who gave me warm water as i was bit car sick from all the driving, in the end i must say i recommend this to those who wants to discover the south of Mauritius in Depth !
Response from the operator: Greetings from the team . I still remember your call in the morning and once again i apologise for the small delay in the morning as traffic was bad due to road works. Am glad to see that you trusted us and enjoyed our service and finally had a a good day.

The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
South of Mauritius :Full day package including Chamarel Coloured earth & lunch: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Port Louis.
How much does South of Mauritius :Full day package including Chamarel Coloured earth & lunch cost?
+
Prices start at $160 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 South of Mauritius :Full day package including Chamarel Coloured earth & lunch take?
+
Plan for about 1 hour 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 South of Mauritius :Full day package including Chamarel Coloured earth & lunch worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 57 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.4/5 across 30 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 South of Mauritius :Full day package including Chamarel Coloured earth & lunch?
+
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 South of Mauritius :Full day package including Chamarel Coloured earth & lunch suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 1-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book South of Mauritius :Full day package including Chamarel Coloured earth & lunch?
+
Around 11 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 1-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does South of Mauritius :Full day package including Chamarel Coloured earth & lunch 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.
