Mauritius is stunning and this package covered the essentials well, especially Aventure du Sucre. The hotel could have been a little closer to the center but transport was easy.

Our trip to Mauritius was fantastic from start to finish. The hotel was clean and well located, and the guided visit to Ile aux Cerfs Island day trip was a real highlight. Airport transfers were on time both ways.
