Tamarin Falls

Tamarind falls also known as the 7 cascades is one of the most attractive and captivating waterfalls of Mauritius. Situated on the central plateau near a small village called Henrietta, 7 cascades is well known for its splendid green scenery and valleys. The 7 cascades hiking is a must while visiting Mauritius. Exploring the waterfalls means walking in the dense forest, hiking and swimming.

We organised our guide Wesley at short notice and he was friendly and efficient straight away meeting us an hour after we called him to start the hike at Henrietta. It’s essential to take a guide on this walk so that you get the local knowledge, don’t get lost and stay safe as you navigate the sometimes tricky and steep terrain. This hike has total wow factor with amazing views as you wind your way down the side of the waterfalls. Take time to enjoy the views. We had a half day and managed to the top of the 5th fall. Would recommend a full day to do it justice and ensure it’s not rushed. The highlights are the amazing views, swimming at the bottom of one of the falls and surviving the steep sections both on the way down and as you climb back up. Wesley was extremely helpful and informative ensuring we stayed safe and helping us get fantastic photos at every opportunity He’s easy to contact on whatts app +230 5718 4966 , highly recommended him.

Le Domaine des Aubineaux

Le Domaine des Aubineaux, an oasis of greenery, peace and tranquillity just steps from the town of Curepipe invites you to discover Les Aubineaux Restaurant. Les Aubineaux Restaurant is nested in the heart of colonial house which was built in 1872. the mansion was made out of teak and other local woods taken from demolished ships. The old mansion was one of the first to be equipped with electricity. It was inhabited by the Guimbeau family until 1999. This family originating from France is established in Mauritius for eight generations now. Le Domaine des Aubineaux was converted into a museum in the year 2000 after the passing away of Mrs. Myriam Guimbeau, the last inhabitant of the Mansion. Les Aubineaux Restaurant then opened its doors in the year 2008. It offers an authentic Mauritian cuisine in a beautiful scenery worthy of the old days. A walk in the beautiful park surrounding the Domain is a must. The gardens harbor many rare trees such as Camphor trees, Chulta trees, conifers.

Curepipe Botanical Garden

Reviewed By GretaduToit - Montagu, South Africa

We recently visited the SSR Botanical Garden in Mauritius. The entrance fee was Rs200 for my daughter and I and we received a map of the garden! Luckily we found a guide and joined a small group and the cost of the guided tour was Rs100. I highly recommend visitors to do so as the garden is quite big. We were entertained by our very witty guide that also spoke a few words in our language, Afrikaans! You can always browse around after the tour which we did! As I am specifically fond of trees I was blown away by the selection of old trees and the history behind it. The guide did a good job by telling us about everything he showed us! Some highlights were the pond with the huge water lilies, the lotus flowers, the tortoises and of course the trees! Our driver we rent for our day trip luckily gave us an umbrella and I strongly recommend an insect repellent !! The visit was most enjoyable and a must see!!
