We arranged a full day private tour including hindu temple, waterfall, seven coloured earth, Port Lois and SSR Botanical Gardens. Our driver and tour guide Ibrahim was brilliant, full of knowledge and made the day so informative. We were collected at 9am and got back to our hotel around 6pm after visiting everywhere we had requested. I would thoroughly recommend Destination Soleil, Carine responded to all emails promptly and made the booking process so easy. We thought the price was excellent value for money and the vehicle was modern, clean and nothing was to much trouble for Ibrahim. Thank you for a magical day

4.5 based on 1,862 reviews
Not far from the Botanical Garden of Pamplemousse, a bougainvillea and coconut trees alley, a pond lined with lush nature ... in this stunning tropical setting stands the massive renovated sugar mill which is one of the most spectacular attraction of the island! The tour begins with sound of the jungle and of the waves of the ocean in the huge factory, with its gigantic machinery decked with a thousand lights : giant screens, movies, a barge floating and the sudden whistle of a railway engine. Experience an interactive and entertaining journey into the heart of Mauritius : its history closely linked to sugarcane, the secrets of sugar processing and the famous co-products of sugarcane (rum, electricity , natural fertilizers ...). Guided tour at no extra charge at 10:30am and 2:30pm from Monday to Thursday and 14:30 on Friday. Gourmet gifts at the boutique and tasty cuisine at the Restaurant le Fangourin or at its train station café that offers delicious homemade takeaways .

In a lush garden you will find the L’Aventure du Sucre , the best museum in Mauritius in my opinion. At l’Aventure du Sucre you get a thorough view on the history of Mauritius, both botanical but also social. It is definitively worth taking the time to read as much of the material as possible. I learnt a lot of interesting facts about how Mauritius came to be the beautiful island we know today, out of a place that was, to say the least, a very hostile place. The history of the different people that built the island is absolutely fascinating, especially nice to see that a whole section is devoted to the slaves that did the hard work. All the material is available in both English and French. The sugar tasting and the gift shop at the end was a nice touch (perfect for buying Rhum and sugar in various forms to bring back home as gifts. Be aware though that you get better prices for Rhum in a normal supermarket...) There is also a restaurant on the premises which I did not try, but it looked very tempting! I recommend this place to any person who is interested in history and plants. Younger kids will find it fascinating to see the big machines that are still being used.

In 1767 the French Intendant Pierre Poivre, the creator of the garden, introduced vegetables, fruits, flowers and spices from all over the world. It is the oldest Botanic Garden of the southern hemisphere.
