The north of Mauritius is awash with history, culture and nature – this trip dips into all three in the photogenic north of the island.
The morning begins with a photo stop at the pretty village of Cap Malheureux, home to the iconic, red-roofed church, a bright contrast to the colours of the Indian Ocean beyond.
Next head on to Aventure du sucre, where this factory won't just see you fed, it's also the place to be schooled in the sugar trade, its history and to sample some sugarcane. There's some special Mauritian rum to wash it all down with too.
Then drive to Pamplemousse village to savor a full lunch in one of the local restaurant. Afterwards, continue to the capital city Port Louis to visit the Fort Adelaide which offers vast panoramic views of Port-Louis and its harbour
Rounding off, we'll head to the city of Port Louis for free time to shop the modern boutiques down at Caudan Waterfront or hit the historic quarter's old craft bazaar and the Port Louis Central Market.
