Daryeau is a wonderful guide - My partner and I had a really amazing hike with Daryeau! (+23054965720) He told us all about Le Morne and what a special and important place it is, its history and its nature. He took us on a lovely scenic route so that we could see as much of the wildlife and surrounding countryside as possible. For much of the hike it is a straightforward uphill walk, but there is a difficult 60m scramble towards the top which is not for the faint hearted. Daryeau guided us through this part very helpfully and calmly and it felt like a real achievement. Afterwards we relaxed on Le Morne beach which is gorgeous. A perfect morning!

Great hike, terrible driver - The hike was amazing and Daryeau is such a fantastic guide. We really appreciated the way he supported us during the hike and that he showed us the natural beauties of Le Morne mountain. However, the experience has been jeopardized by the driver. His driving was very dangerous! And the worst part: although the description of this excursion literally writes “Spend the afternoon swimming, suntanning or participating in one of the many activities offered at the beach (…). At the end of the day, our driver will take drop you off at your hotel in time for dinner!”, our driver stated that he only had 8 hours trip planned, so he wanted to drive us back AT NOON. We had a very unpleasant argument and finally found a compromise. I kindly invite the organising company to settle this matter with the drivers they hire.

Lovely Hike - Dangerous Driving! - We rate 3 stars as an average. The guide was a 5 star, but the driver was zero or even below. From the moment we was picked up, the driver was driving very dangerously and after some crazy overtaking attempts, we had to ask him to calm down and drive so we had a chance to survive the holiday. This let to a bit of argumentation, which seemed completely out of context. We are used to the “interesting” traffic at Mauritius - but this was simply too hazardous! Furthermore the driver took no attention to his guests in the car, with super loud radio, ice cold air conditioning and his general behavior. Which is sad, because the hike was actually ok. The guide was explaining a lot about the fauna on the mountain and generally polite, helpful and professional. During the climb the guide was taking so good care of us and making the hike itself a very nice experience - even in the pouring rain we had that day. So - do the hike, but find a safer way of transporting yourself to the mountain.
