Enjoy a private tour in southwest Mauritius featuring stunning viewpoints, lush forests, waterfalls, and coastal scenery, ending with a horse riding experience along the beautiful beach of Bel Ombre.
Begin your journey with a visit to Trou aux Cerfs, a dormant volcanic crater located in Curepipe at about 605 meters above sea level. Surrounded by lush vegetation, pine trees, and exotic plants, the crater measures roughly 350 meters in diameter and 80 meters deep. From the rim, enjoy breathtaking 360-degree panoramic views across the central plateau, nearby mountain ranges, and on clear days even the distant coastline. This iconic site offers a peaceful setting and a glimpse into Mauritius’ volcanic origins.

Next, head to Mare aux Vacoas, the largest freshwater reservoir in Mauritius, built in 1885 and later expanded. Located in the cool highlands and surrounded by dense forests, the reservoir lies at an elevation of about 600 meters above sea level. The tranquil lake and misty atmosphere make it a wonderful scenic stop for photography and nature lovers.

Continue to Grand Bassin (Ganga Talao), a sacred crater lake situated about 550 meters above sea level in the district of Savanne. Considered a holy site for Mauritians of the Hindu faith, the lake is surrounded by temples and shrines dedicated to Lord Shiva and other Hindu deities. Visitors are often amazed by the gigantic statue of Lord Shiva, the tallest statue in Mauritius, standing proudly beside the lake.

Your journey then proceeds to Alexandra Falls, one of the most iconic natural attractions in Mauritius, located within the Black River Gorges National Park. From the viewpoint, admire spectacular panoramas of the island’s lush green valleys, dense rainforest, and the distant turquoise ocean.

Next, stop at the Black River Gorges viewpoint (Macchabée Viewpoint), offering one of the most impressive panoramas in the southwest region. The national park spans nearly 17,000 acres of protected rainforest, home to rare endemic plants, birds, and wildlife.

After enjoying these scenic stops, head to Chamarel village where you will savor a delicious Mauritian lunch at a local restaurant.

Following lunch, visit the Chamarel Viewpoint, a breathtaking vantage point overlooking the southwest coast. From here you can admire the majestic Le Morne Brabant mountain, the turquoise lagoon, and the beautiful islets of Île aux Bénitiers and Crystal Rock.

Finally, conclude your day with a memorable horse riding experience in Bel Ombre. Ride along pristine white sandy beaches and turquoise lagoons while enjoying the refreshing sea breeze and spectacular coastal scenery. This relaxing one-hour ride offers the perfect way to experience the natural beauty of Mauritius.
