Amazing experience! We love turtles! - Went on the swim with turtles tour today. It was absolutely amazing! Our driver and personal tour guide, D’Pack, was lovely and friendly throughout. We had 20 min swim with turtles on a beautiful beach and we even stroked them! Lunch was nice in a small, busy, family run restaurant and we were given local snacks from the food market. We would have liked more time to go in the branded shops in the shopping village but overall it was an excellent experience and well worth it!! Weather was lovely, as this trip was previously cancelled by the operator for bad weather but communication was very good. I would suggest keeping in touch with the guide on WhatsApp to confirm pick up times etc 24 hours before you go on your trip! Thank you !!

My highlight of a 6 week holiday, this is it! - We were doing a 6 weeks vacation, from which 4 weeks on a cruise ship . One of the stops was Mauritius and there was a day which I didn't have an activity so I booked this one. It is certainly been the highlight of my whole holiday together with the Safari we did later. Our tour guide ( Baboo) was very good and easy to get on with . He took us to a street food stall with delicious friend noodles with chicken.

Great time - The driver was friendly, arrived on time, did not rush us, we had plenty of time for photos. He guided us through the city and at the market he chose tasty treats for us to try. Afterwards we went to the beach were we took a boat and very close to the shore we swam with giant turtles. They are really impressive, you are not allowed to touch them, but they are used to humans and come right next to you. Afterwards you can spend some time on the beach and eat a delicious lunch by the locals.

Best experience ever! - Even though the lovely driver was 45 minutes late, it was not his fault! It was Viator HQ fault. On our tour guide’s ticket, it said pick up 9.30 am. On my ticket it said 9 am pick up. Then he had to get a permit from a ticket booth to come to the port in Port Louis, Mauritius. But we managed to find each other and we had a most amazing encounter and swim with the turtles and after that a street food lunch. Bamboo is a great guide, full of history knowledge and about the island . We also went to the market afterwards . All in all a very good experience. But Viator needs to keep the time the same for us as for the guide!

Great tour and great tour guide. - I’m so glad I booked this tour because I only had one day to explore Port Louis and the surrounding area, and this tour was perfect. Baboo from Sam Tours was fantastic! He was friendly, relaxed, and informative, and made me feel secure at all times. He also went above and beyond what was advertised, and he made sure that I got to see the vegetable and fruit market before it closed on Sunday morning. Getting a taste of the culture and food was wonderful and delicious. The turtles were absolutely amazing! I highly recommend the tour.

Great guide, turtles and food! - Great guide and quick drive across the island. Swimming with turtles was amazing with the guides ensuring we had the best spot and as much time to swim with them as we wanted. The food from the Port Louis market and tea tasting were great too. Lots of food and fun. Would recommend to all.

Swimming with the turtles... - Swimming with the turtles wasn't as expected I thought it would be more professional set up, however the trip and time in port louie was great along with our exceptional driver for the day.
