A lovely tour of the sights - We had a lovely day exploring the sights of the South West of the island. Our driver was very friendly. He was personable and answered our questions throughout the day, without being overbearing, allowing us time to explore on our own.

Great experience and guide - Great guide, super knowledgeable and very flexible in arrangements. The lunch was great as well. We got to see all the key places in the area at our own pace.

Great experience. - Our driver Sam was fantastic which made the entire experience that much better. This side of the island has much more to see and more beautiful than the north. Well worth the money.

Excellent day trip with the wonderful Raj as our guide. - Our Guide Raj was excellent! We had the most wonderful experience discovering parts of the island that are spectacular. The whole tour was a full day of learning and exploring. Raj was very patient and super knowledgeable. Seeing the island by car is a must do. We were able to learn about fauna and floara as well as the history of all the areas we were driving through. The sightseeing areas are breathtaking and the restaurant in the small village we had lunch at was amazing. I would 100% recommend this tour with Turquoise Voyages / SAMTOURS and even more so if you can ask for Raj to be your tour guide.

A very nice experience on Mauritius - We booked this excursion prior to our arrival on the island. The hotel pickup was well-organized, and our friendly driver Bansi shared a lot of information concerning our trip. He helped us with our baby/stroller, and he helped us take some family photos. He was telling us historical insights during the drive so we didn`t even notice how time flies while on the trip. At every stop, he told us the relevant information in detail about the visited sites (volcano craters, waterfalls, holy places, etc. For lunch, he took us to a restaurant where traditional Maritian food was served, and it was excellent. Overall we were extremely satisfied with the service, I highly recommend this tour to everyone who visits Mauritius. Additionally, I was contacted by Sahil, that I had lost my purse in the car - the next day Bansi returned it to me. Million thank to these guys!
