Unmissable Guided Street Food Tour: Taste Your Way Through Port Louis

Starting at the Caudan Waterfront, your friendly guide will introduce you to the best street food spots in Port Louis as well as the main sights!

First up, Ahmed’s “dholl puri”—Mauritius’ iconic flatbread, a legendary family recipe that’s been delighting taste buds for generations and is a must-try!

But that’s just the beginning! The next stop will be for tasting Mauritian-style dumplings (“boulettes”), testimony of the Chinese culture present on the island.

During the tour, you will stop by the ‘Jardin de la Compagnie' with majestic Banyan trees, dating back to the French Occupation period. There, you will enjoy Indo-Mauritian “Faratas”, another special flatbread awaits, flavoured with curries and a sweet twist.

The adventure continues at the Port Louis Central Market, where Baby and his family will introduce you to an array of juicy & fresh Mauritian-style tropical fruit.

After a brief stop at the Jummah Mosque (one of the oldest mosques on the island), you will make your way to Chinatown & try some special Chinese treats.

Why Port Louis? Fun Facts!

  • In the 18th century, Port Louis was the perfect stopover between Europe and the East.
  • Under the Governor Mahé de Labourdonnais, the French built houses, roads, and canals, transforming Port Louis into a self-sufficient town with a thriving population.
  • Immigrants from Europe, Africa, India and China brought their cultures, religions, languages and food - making Mauritius a true melting pot as we know it today.
  • The city retains traces of its old self, like ancient water troughs, old paved streets, and magnificent Creole-style buildings which you’ll come across during the tour.
