    The driver and boat captain were great as were the TUI team. When the tour we booked was sold out they found us a new opportunity for the same day as we had only a week in Mauritius this was our one chance so this was really appreciated.

    Wir hatten ein Fahrer, der sich unglaublich bemüht hat alles zu erklären, er war sehr freundlich und höflich. Er hat uns den ganzen Tag begleitet und war nie aufdringlich. Die Fahrt zu den Delfinen war super! Der Kapitän und sein Kollege waren super, sie wussten genau wo die Delfine sind, wir haben sogar ein Wal gesehen. Wir sind sehr, sehr zufrieden mit dem Ausflug

    Der Guide Yugal war hervorragend. Er hatte immenses Wissen, war unheimlich freundlich und hat uns ein paar tolle Spots gezeigt. Auf dem Boot war der Guide Conrad super. Er hat uns ein unglaubliches Erlebnis mit über 50 Delfinen an 2 Spots beschert. Aber: Achtung beim duty free Stop Miskeen - das war Betrug, es gibt am Flughafen kein Geld zurück, da Formular nicht gestempelt

    This is an excellent way to see more of this beautiful island. Our driver went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable and enjoyed our trip. The Temple was a particular highlight, so beautiful and peaceful. Thank you ??

    Die Delfinbeobachtungstour war super. Wir konnten vom Boot aus die Delfine beobachten, durften aber auch mit ihnen schwimmen gehen. Die Zeit war gut eingeplant. Dann fuhr der Guide nach Trou au Cerf, einen Vulkankrater. Der sieht man aber nur von weitem und ist erhrlich gesagt ein bisschen unspektakulär. Die Geschichte des Kraters ist aber interessant. Anschlissend sind wir zum Hindutempel gefahren, dort gibt es auch gleich der Grand-Bassin, der Heilige See der Hindus.

    Moment magique de nage avec les dauphins et ensuite un tour au sud de l’île avec des paysage magiques
