★★★★★★★★★★4.0 · 1,635 reviews · 7 hours · from $115

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…”

★★★★★★★★★★4.9 · 839 reviews · 4 hours · from $75

Sunrise hike up Le Morne Brabant from Le Morne Public Beach, with a certified mountaineer, scrambling sections, snacks, and summit views.

“This sunrise hike was perfection personified, although a little challenging it was worth it! I wouldn’t recommend if you’re not comfortable with heights or your fitness levels aren’t the best. I also wouldn’t recommend doing the hike alone, a guide is a MUST! Kevin was a great guide and brought a great energy even so early in the morning, he was helpful with the climb, taking photos and answering any questions we had about himself, the hike or Mauritius in general. Truly a once in a lifetime experience!”

Swim with spinner and bottlenose dolphins, then watch sperm and humpback whales from a speedboat on Mauritius’ Black River, plus snorkeling.

“Alan made us feel extremely safe and well looked after. He explained how you should not go too close to the whales as it distresses them, and he obeyed all the correct procedures. We were able to see amazing whales without emotionally harming the animals, unlike other companies we saw. As for the dolphins, again they made sure it was safe for us to enter the water and the experience was utterly magical.”
