“Es war ein fürchterlicher Ausflug. Die Abfahrt sollte um 9:30 Uhr sein. Leider gab es für uns keinen Ansprechpartner vor Ort. Also fragten wir uns durch, wurden jedoch nur von einer Person zur nächsten weitergereicht. Gegen 10:20 Uhr wurde uns schließlich gesagt, wir sollten einfach bei irgendeiner Tour mitfahren, die wir überhaupt nicht gebucht hatten. Nachdem wir deutlich gemacht hatten, dass wir die Wasserfalltour nicht zum Spaß gebucht hatten, dauerte es weitere 20 Minuten, bis wir endlich losfuhren.

“Vi havde 2 timer til at spise k inden vi skulle videre til vandfaldet. 1 time eller 1 1/2 time havde været nok. Vi fik en speedbåd i stedet for en catamaram. Personligt synes jeg at han sejlede alt for stærkt. Ellers en super fint tur med noget godt mad.”

7.5 Islands Private Speedboat w/ Snorkeling + Lunch & Drinks

★★★★★★★★★★4.2 · 18 reviews · 9 hours

Take a private speedboat from Trou d’Eau Douce around Mauritius’ east coast and Blue Bay Marine Park. You’ll visit island stops, see a waterfall, feed wild monkeys, snorkel among tropical fish, and watch for dolphins and sea turtles. A beach BBQ, drinks, and optional hotel transfers are included, with parasailing and tube rides extra.

“The food on the island was good but thats about it. The all inclusive/ unlimited drinks and snacks fitted in a little cooler. They feed the monkeys with chips 👎We thought the guide/ driver would explain something along the tour or give us informations what's next but unfortunately he didn't speak much english. So most of our questions remained unanswered. We were very disappointed when the tour ended after only 5 hours at 2 p.m. We felt betrayed. It is not worth the money. We can't recommend this tour at all.”
