Tailored Mauritius Holidays Just for You

The tropical and incredibly beautiful island of Mauritius was once a paradise for pirates and the only known habitat of the now extinct Dodo bird, but now, Mauritius is known for its astounding white sand beaches and turquoise waters that boast volcanic mountains as their backdrops.

It is an island built for exploration, with intriguing architecture - Indian temples to colourful French colonial houses, botanical gardens, crystal-like waterfalls, lush forestry and beautiful flora and fauna - from rare birds, lions and dolphins to soaring ebony trees.

When to Visit

Best Time to Travel to Mauritius

May through November is considered the best time to go to Mauritius because the weather is milder and drier, which makes it easier to view the island. The weather is great during these months, which makes sightseeing, outdoor activities, and walking trips a lot more fun than in the hot summer months. The beautiful Pamplemousses Botanical Garden is at its best right now, as are the crowded streets, shops, and beaches of Port Louis. The warmer temperature also makes mornings and late afternoons great times to visit the sights, take pictures, and enjoy the island's busy culture without getting too hot.
