About This Tour
Private Mauritius South Tour
A Mauritius south tour is the best way to experience the wild, untouched beauty of the island. While the north is known for beach resorts and nightlife, the south is defined by dramatic landscapes — lush gorges, towering waterfalls, ancient volcanic craters, sacred lakes and the iconic 23 Coloured Earth of Valle Park.
This full-day private tour covers the essential southern highlights with a licensed driver, all entry tickets and a scenic lunch included. The entire vehicle is exclusively yours.
