A great intro tour to South Western sights. - A great intro tour of key attractions in the South with Chucky’s taxis. Chucky picked us up on time and discussed our options and preferences with us. He then safely drove us to the key locations giving helpful background info along the way. From a rhumerie to multi-coloured rocks to a Hindu temple, botanical gardens and other view points this was a lovely day. Chucky was very engaging and accommodating throughout and made it a lovely day. Entrance fees are not included in this tour but it is good value and we would happily use Chucky’s taxis again.

Traumhafter Tag - We were picked up on time at the hotel in a neat, clean vehicle. Chucky is a very friendly, courteous tour guide and a safe driver. We were able to accommodate our individual requests. It was a thoroughly successful day with many highlights. We've booked him again for the northern tour. What's more, he's significantly cheaper than the big agencies, in our case, DERTOUR. Thank you so much!

Amazing Experience, Even Better Driver! - Chucky took me on the tour of the South West and made it completely personal to me! He had pre-prepared a rough itinerary and messaged me on whatsapp in the days leading up to it about what I can expect. On the day he asked if there were places I'd like to spend more time at, and places I'd like to spend less. Despite the weather being a bit wet and gloomy, Chucky went out of his way to visit places multiple times during the day to benefit from better weather conditions. A must-do from a tourist like myself hoping to see as much of the island as possible during my short stay!

Southern adventure - We had an amazing day. Before we even began, Chucky Taxis let us know who our driver would be and sent a photo of the car and number plate. Ashif picked us up at our requested time, made us feel comfortable and provided us with expert knowledge of the island and of the points we were visiting. We chose not to visit a couple of spots and because it was just me and my husband, our requests were easily accommodated. We would both highly recommend this trip, excellent value for money and a wonderful team!

Top experience despite bad weather! Highly recommended! - We spend our first holiday in Mauritius, decided to book Chucky's taxi for our southern tour based on the top reviews and it was a great decision. Chucky is an extremely nice, dedicated and child-friendly driver. He even responded to our special requests and made the tour flexible according to our ideas. It was a very entertaining and informative tour despite really bad weather conditions. We had selected some other excursions in advance of our trip and will now also book our other experiences through him.
