The Tea Route excursion at Bois Chéri is a full day journey through the cultural and natural centre of Mauritius. You travel in a private air conditioned vehicle with your own licensed driver, and the whole car belongs to your group alone. There is no shared minibus and no fixed group to keep pace with, so the day runs at your speed rather than to a timetable set by someone else.
The route climbs from the coast into the central highlands, starting at Trou aux Cerfs, a dormant volcanic crater above Curepipe with panoramic views across the island. From there you continue past Mare aux Vacoas, the largest reservoir in Mauritius, and stop for the Sofie nature walk before reaching Grand Bassin, also known as Ganga Talao, the sacred crater lake that is the most important Hindu pilgrimage site on the island.
The afternoon belongs to Bois Chéri itself, the oldest and largest tea plantation in Mauritius. You tour the working factory, see the leaf processed from field to packet, and sit down to a guided tasting of the estate teas, including the vanilla blend the island is known for. Lunch follows at the hilltop restaurant, a three course meal with sweeping views over the southern coastline.
All entry tickets are included, along with fuel, parking and hotel pickup anywhere on the island. Your driver speaks English and French and knows the route well, so you can linger longer at a viewpoint or skip a stop if you prefer. Most guests are collected around 09:00 and back at their hotel by 16:30.
