Enjoy a stress-free day on one of the most beautiful islands in Mauritius. We take care of it all: private hotel pickup and dropoff, transportation to and from Ile aux Cerfs in a speedboat, a barbecue lunch, and plenty of drinks (including beer, wine and rum). Spend the day swimming, suntanning, relaxing and exploring this tropical paradise.
If you're looking for a more intimate experience, we offer this excursion on a Private basis as well (you can choose Shared or Private when you book). Note that our hotel pickup and dropoff is Private for both the Shared and Private excursions.
For the Shared option, your hotel transfers are still private. Enjoy a carefree day exploring one of Mauritius’ most beautiful islands while we take care of all the details, including hotel pickup and drop-off, speedboat transfers to Île aux Cerfs, a freshly prepared barbecue lunch, and drinks. Your driver will collect you from your hotel between 7:00am and 8:30am (depending on location) for transfer to the departure point, where you’ll board a speedboat between 9:00am and 9:30am. Cruise across the turquoise lagoon and pass the spectacular Grand River South East (GRSE) waterfall, where you may spot monkeys in the trees and native fruit bats along the riverbanks. After the waterfall visit, continue to nearby Ilot Mangénie, where a delicious BBQ lunch awaits, featuring grilled chicken, fish, fresh salads, and more, along with soft drinks, beer, wine, and rum. Following lunch, take a short boat ride to Île aux Cerfs, where you’ll enjoy 3–4 hours of free time to swim in crystal-clear waters, relax on white-sand beaches, sunbathe, or explore optional island activities at your own pace.
We pick up at all hotels, B&Bs, apartments on the island. Please let us know which hotel, B&B or apartment you're staying at. The boat to Ile aux Cerfs leaves between 9:00am and 9:30am, so your pickup time will be between 7:00am and 8:30am depending on where your hotel is. We will let you know your exact pickup time upon booking.
For a full refund, cancel at least 24 hours before the scheduled departure time.
