Mauritius Nature Eco-Tour with Ebony Forest Visit

On this adventure, you'll have the opportunity to visit a sanctuary teeming with rare Ebony trees, home to endangered birds such as the Kestrel, Echo Parakeet, and Pink Pigeon. Accompanied by an Eco-Ranger, you'll also get to plant an endemic sapling or sow seeds.

Next, nestled within a historical stone cottage is "Kaz’alala", where you can savour traditional Mauritian cuisine made from fresh local produce. Your journey continues at the World of Seashells, a museum dedicated to raising awareness about the crucial role seashells play in our food chain and the preservation of marine ecosystems. Following this, you'll stop at a recycling plant to discover how discarded glass bottles are repurposed for construction companies and local artisans, thereby bolstered the local economy.

Finally, meet a local in her workshop, where she crafts biodegradable palm plates. A number of local restaurants have begun collaborating with her to promote the use of sustainable products.
