This Special Full Day Package includes:

07h30 - 10h00 Private 2.5 hours of Swimming with Dolphins

Immerse yourself in the adventure of a lifetime by swimming with dolphins and watching them from up close.

You will sail on speed boat to look for the dolphins. You will not only encounter these mammals but will have the unique opportunity to swim with them in their natural habitat.

Unlike many other dolphin facilities that limit a swim with dolphins program to pools or shallow water encounters, we provide the unique opportunity to enter the dolphins’ natural environment and enjoy an encounter with the dolphins in open sea.

This trip is done on a speed boat, having the boat exclusively for you to enjoy your own tailor-made trip.

10h15- 12h15: Road trip along the Southwest Coast

Discover the beautiful southern and western coasts of the island through this delightful road trip. The South of Mauritius is known for its picturesque, uncrowded beaches and preserved environment.

While heading south, you will come across Le Morne Brabant, a UNESCO World Heritage site with a summit of 500 meters and known to be an escape haven for runaway slaves in the 19th century. The mountain is also the natural habitat of a very large variety of endemic species, such as the rare Trochetia Boutoniana, which is the floral emblem of Mauritius.

Further on, you will also come across the Macondé Viewpoint, located between Le Morne and Baie du Cap. Set on the curve of the coastal road, the peak of the small rocky cliff allows you to enjoy breathtaking views of the Indian Ocean and the majestic Le Morne mountain.

12h30: Lunch at L’Exil Lodge

For lunch you will head to L’Exil Lodge’s restaurant, ideally located in proximity of the cliffs. The restaurant is a magical place offering a panoramic view where guests can spend unforgettable moments and discover the best of the local Mauritian cuisine. You will get to savour a typical 3-course Mauritian meal including a starter, a main course and a delicious dessert.

15h00 - 17h00: 2-hour Private Quad in the South

For those who would like to show off their off-road skills, this 2-hour private quad biking trip is just the thing. Specially designed for adrenaline junkies, the 2-hour quad ride allows you to discover the South of the island in a fun way. During the quad biking activity, you will be able to witness the beautiful flora and fauna of Mauritius while also riding along splendid landscapes, including extraordinary views of the island and its marvellous valleys, mountains and waterfalls.

The Exclusive Quad Ride guarantees you personal guidance from the accompanying guide and a ride at your own pace with no rush or being delayed by others!

Departing from the L’Exil, the 2-hour ride will help you explore the most exotic and scenic sites of the south, like the volcanic cliffs of Gris-Gris, La Roche qui Pleure, Rochester Falls and others. The breathtaking scenery, cascading waterfalls, pools of clear water, and luxuriant greeneries surrounding the region, make them wonderful sites for you to explore.
