Mauritius Tours for Solo Travelers
Our solo packages in Mauritius give you the perfect mix of structure and freedom. The local bus network makes it simple to hop around Grand Baie on your own once you're settled at the hotel. We've got some excellent day excursions where you'll join other travelers - checking out the Trou-Aux-Cerfs volcano crater and those fascinating multicolored earth formations at Chamarel. The evenings are yours to fill as you like. One thing that really makes a difference is how attentive the hotel staff are with solo guests, plus the rooms are properly spacious so you've got your own comfortable space. A lot of our travelers end up booking the optional catamaran trip to Ile aux Cerfs - it's a natural way to meet people while enjoying a fresh BBQ lunch as you sail along the east coast.
