The 15 Best Chamarel & South-West Tours

40 tours  ·  ★★★★★★★★★★ 4.6 average  ·  from $10

Chamarel is the hill village above the south-west coast: coloured earths, a waterfall, a rum distillery and the road down to La Gaulette for the Benitiers boats. These 15 cover both halves — the inland stops and the water — with real driving times.

7-hour Mauritius boat tour for dolphin swims, Crystal Rock snorkeling, and a beach BBQ lunch with pickup, drinks, and time to relax.

“Lovely day trip. Collection and drop off by private taxi was excellent, we loved chatting with the driver and learning more about Mauritius. The speed boat journey was fun, particularly on the way back where we hit some bigger waves! The morning you zip around the coast trying to find dolphins (along with many other boats). At this point you could jump off to “swim” with the dolphins but they are quick and maybe not in on the game. Our driver was more respectful to the dolphins and kept a distance from them which I appreciated. We loved snorkelling in the crystal clear waters afterwards. The BBQ on the island…”

★★★★★★★★★★4.8 · 100 reviews · 3 hours · from $64

A 3-hour guided hike in Black River Gorges, with rare wildlife spotting and mountain views, ending in a refreshing river swim.

“I went on a solo hike with Yanature at Black River Gorges National Park on the Pilgrims Trail and it was an amazing experience. Our guide, Rowin, was friendly, knowledgeable and very patient, especially on the steeper sections of the trail. He made sure I felt comfortable and never rushed. We ended the hike with a refreshing swim in a beautiful Black river and even enjoyed some local food nearby. As a solo traveler, I felt completely safe and would definitely do this again. Highly recommended✨”
