Travel to Mauritius

Coming to Mauritius, visit the bustling Port Louis, the capital city of the island. Go on tours to the China Town and the Muammar El Khadafi to do some shopping and to see the most remarkable sights of the city. These include 18th century structures like the Government house and the Municipal Theater. Other important sites in Port Louis are the Supreme Court and the Natural History Museum. Looking for the best spot for the relaxation, take into account that the most rewarding sweep of beaches lies between Trou d'Eau Douce and Belle Mare. Whatever you prefer to do: go for a sunbath, relax with family or friends, practice water skiing, boating, swimming, sailing, wind surfing, and fishing, the beaches of Mauritius undoubtedly satisfy all your dreams. Treat your senses seeing exotic flowers and tropical fruit trees during the hiking tour along the Labourdonnais Orchards. Choose the time and visit the major wildlife parks of the island: Black River Gorges National Park, La Vanille, the homes to a wide range of wildlife found in the region, or sample the best Mauritian cuisine in Caudan Waterfront and Domaine les Pailles.

If you can not imagine the vacation without exploring the historical monuments, then head for Vieux Grand Port, which offers a glimpse of the medieval history of the island. There you can discover the Balaclava ruins and the Dutch ruins, the remnants of the European settlements and some other relics of that period. Mauritius can also boast of some important religious spots. Triolet Shivala, the biggest Hindu temple of the island, and the Maheswarnath Temple draw huge crowds of Hindu believers from all over the world. Curepipe demands a visit because it is the hub of Mauritius's tea and model ship building industries and is a home to Sir Seewoosagur Ramgoolam Botanical Gardens, full of water lilies, chewing-gum trees, and golden bamboo. No one will be disappointed by the trip to Mauritius, so do not hesitate and be ready for a journey of a lifetime.
