How to Plan the Perfect Mauritius Holiday (Full Guide)
Whether you’re staying in a beachfront resort or a private villa inland, your Mauritius holiday can be
stress-free when you organise a few key things in advance.
First, book your airport transfer before you fly. Then decide which tours you’d like to do —
North, South, Tea Road, lagoon days, boat trips, or hiking. Mix relaxing days by the pool with 2–3 days of
discovery so you see more than just your hotel surroundings.
This guide walks you through creating a simple day-by-day plan so you enjoy both the lagoon and the mountains
without feeling rushed.
Why You Should Pre-Book Your Airport Transfer
After a long flight, the last thing you want is to negotiate with taxis or worry about overpaying.
Pre-booking your Mauritius airport transfer gives you peace of mind from the moment you land.
Your driver waits for you in the arrivals hall with a name board, helps with luggage and drives you directly
to your hotel or villa in a clean, air-conditioned vehicle. No surprises, no hidden charges.
Travel Holiday Mauritius also monitors your flight in case of delays or early arrival, so you’re never left waiting.
