Professional guides and experienced sportsmen, they use their 15 years’ experience to take you to the highest peaks of Mauritius for a vibrant and unforgettable adventure.

The must-do? The iconic Morne mountain. This symbol of resistance to slavery, a World Heritage Site, is home to a wide variety of endemic and near-endemic species, such as the rare Trochettia Boutoniana, the national flora symbol. There are some steeper parts on the ascent that require the use of hands to progress safely to the top but the breathtaking views are well worth the effort. Marvel at a panoramic view of turquoise lagoons melting into the deep blue of the southern seas, feel the touch of the trade winds and watch the flight of the straw-tailed phaeton, a long-tailed white bird that is the symbol of our national airline.
