A trip to Mauritius: Sea, Nature and Safaris in Africa

Mauritius is one of the most enchanting islands in the Indian Ocean, famous for its tropical beaches, crystal-clear lagoons, lush natural surroundings and excellent hospitality.

A trip to Mauritius is much more than just a beach holiday: the island offers volcanic landscapes, mountains, waterfalls, local culture and a wide variety of experiences.

Thanks to excellent connections with southern Africa, Mauritius is also one of the best beach extensions following a safari in South Africa, in Kruger National Park or in private reserves.
