TOP REASONS TO GO TO MAURITIUS

With a fairly consistent tropical climate, Mauritius is well-known for beach holidays, descending the ocean reefs, and sipping cocktails on sunset cruises.  With luxury resorts boasting fine cuisine, exclusive golfing and opulent living, the island truly manages to create a beach retreat of ultimate comfort.  Sporting enthusiasts also find the island a welcome playground with cycling, watersports, fishing and hiking on the cards, as well as many organized sporting events including the recent launch of the islands Ironman.

If good rum and festivities are what you’re looking for, the people of Mauritius are jovial and vibrant, hospitable and always ready for a celebration.

WHEN IS THE BEST TIME TO TRAVEL TO MAURITIUS?

The tropical climate in Mauritius boasts warmth and favourable temperatures throughout the year.  Although summers are hot and humid, sea breezes kindly prevent unbearable temperatures.  Heavy rains and an occasional, short-lived cyclone may strike between January and March.  Peak tourist season is generally between October and April.  Often, visiting during this time may require you to book well in advance and involves a slightly increased budget.  Snag some fantastic deals during low-season and ask our travel experts for advice on island location as the east side can be windier during certain times of the year.

OUR MAURITIUS TRAVEL ADVICE

When traveling to Mauritius we highly recommend making the most of resort all-inclusive packages.  This eliminates surprise bills at the end of your stay allowing you and your family to enjoy everything the resort has to offer to your hearts content.  After all, holidays are meant to be stress free, not spent tallying numbers and keeping tabs on the budget.

Taking organized tours to rum distilleries, botanical gardens and nature reserves may make your transfers more streamlined and affordable.  Planning your trip around festivals is also a great way to engage in the local culture and experience its lively traditions.

WHERE TO GO IN MAURITIUS

Although Mauritius is enveloped by endless beautiful beaches, there are a few renowned for their specific offering of sport activities, solitude and marine life.   Grand Baie beaches are great for watersports, Trou-aux-Biches idyllic for diving and snorkeling and Flic en Flac’s public white sandy beach is one of the longest on the island.

Although the island is only 65 km long and can easily be explored in one trip, Grand Baie is the centre of tourism in Mauritius where one can embark on historical and heritage tours, food tours, catamaran cruises and enjoy a variety of restaurants and lively bars.

The Ile aux Aigrettes Nature Reserve offers guided eco-tourism jungle tours – a fascinating experience to marvel at endemic fauna and flora.

MAURITIUS ACCOMMODATION

Boasting world class hospitality, attention to detail and magnificent beachfront locations, accommodation in Mauritius leaves one spoilt for choice.  Standard to most holiday resorts is proximity to a beach, a luxurious spa and tropical foliage surrounding a bar-side pool.

Perfect for weddings, luxury resorts will provide a spectacular scene of extravagant seaside opulence for your special day, making it an unforgettable affair for the entire guest party.

Mauritius offers many affordable seaside resorts with a wide variety of on-site entertainment and activities.  For those who like to push the limits on luxury, private villas are a pure indulgent holiday paradise with butlers, secluded infinity pools, golfing privileges and private beach access.

THINGS TO DO IN MAURITIUS

With open-air markets, magnificent botanical gardens, intricate temples, horse-riding and incredible cuisine, Mauritius proposes a lot more than just sand and sea.  However, the island will always boast a relentless offering of adventure activities for anyone who dares to explore its lagoons, rainforests, reefs and mountains.

Get in the water for kitesurfing, surfing, sailing, fishing, diving and snorkeling.  Parasail, quadbike, hike, zip-line and end the day with relaxing yoga overlooking an ocean sunset.  Enjoy full-day cruises visiting smaller remote islands and experience a magical dolphin encounter.

As if that isn’t enough action for one trip, visit during one of the Mauritian festivals and celebrate the Creole culture with Sega dancing, music performances, art exhibitions, and larger-than-life parties.

My daughter and I travelled to Vietnam Aug 2026 for her birthday, visiting three cities, and it was honestly the best vacation of our lives! 🇻🇳❤️ From the very beginning,i mean from quotation.. Simone Schoonberg was amazing. She organised everything for us — airport transfers, domestic flights, amazing accommodation, and even added our Ha Long Bay cruise without any hassle, just 3 letters WOW Everything was perfectly organised and our transport was always on time. The iGo app was also fantastic! Having our full itinerary, travel documents, and all the important details in one place felt like having a tour guide in our pockets! 👌🏾 I’ve used different travel agencies before, but this experience was truly one of the BEST. I had some doubts at first because it was my first time using IGO Travel, but we had an absolute blast! We smiled and enjoyed every moment of those two weeks in Vietnam. What a blessing! ❤️ In fact, it was so hard when we had to come back home. Simone, Simone my dear you are the best! Thank you for making my daughter’s birthday trip so special and memorable one.I wish you all the best in your career! ❤️✈️🇻🇳

I was travelling to Thailand for the 1st time and the experience I had booking my trip with iGo travel was nothing short of amazing. From the time I requested a quotation, I dealt with Simone Schoonberg. She sent me different options and I changed my mind after I selected a package, she went and reqouted. Every thing was seamless, the iGo app with your full itenerary was the biggest highlight, copies of all our documents were there and details of where we need to be, and what time we needed to be there, it's like we had a tour guide in our pockets 👌🏾 P.S no one I know personally recommended this agency, I just went with the reviews, and it was the best experience.
