VISIT MAHEBOURGThere is a lot of history to uncover in the seaside village of Mahebourg and the surrounding south-east region of the island. Its museum, bustling and colourful market place and waterfront are a few of the attractions that make for a pleasant and distinctive journey of exploration. And of course, don’t miss out on the cassava biscuit factory that has now been in activity for almost a century and a half.

MELTING POTThis is your chance to learn about the fantastic mosaic of cultures and traditions that make Mauritius unique in its own way. There are only a few places in the world where you will come across such a confluence of major religions and cultures coexisting harmoniously, all within touching distance from each other. You will also sample some Creole-style home cooking before discovering various treasures of the colonial era at a 19th century period house.
