Must do activity - We had a great kayaking trip on the Tamarin River with my wife, and it was one of the highlights of our stay. The river is beautiful and very peaceful, and everything was well organized. Our guide, Gilles, was great and made the experience easy and enjoyable from start to finish even took some amazing photos of us. Highly recommend this tour if you’re looking for a relaxed and scenic activity in Mauritius.

Tamarin Trip - We went on this trip as an excursion to break up our beach time. I want to recommend the trip. we were new to the area and loved the beach and river paddle. The trip wasn't difficult and concluded in a reasonable time. Gilles, our guide, was very helpful and displayed his knowledge of the area as we paddled along. It was an unforgettable day.

He told us many stories about surrounding and he even took some pictures of us. Very nice person, we highly recommend it, great way to explore this area of the island 😊.
