- With relatively lower rental rates they have opened the door to more visitors being able to stay and benefit the island’s economy.
- The BUS SERVICE is Government-subsidised and a very low-cost way of travelling around but not very comfortable!

- HISTORY and
- CULTURE OF MAURITIUS you can explore the island's turbulent colonial past and diversity of people.
- You will see dramatic rolling landscapes of SUGAR CANE rising to meet the awe-inspiring mountains in the BLACK RIVER GORGE, declared a NATIONAL PARK in 1997 as LE MORNE on the coast, visible from many miles is a poignant reminder of the precarious sanctuary of runaway slaves.
