Today is entirely free for you to spend as you wish. Whether you choose to explore the local coastline, enjoy resort activities, or simply lounge by the infinity pool with a book in hand, the day is yours to embrace at a leisurely pace.
You may choose to spend another tranquil day by the ocean or venture inland to explore Mauritius’s natural beauty. Options include hiking through lush jungle trails, visiting cascading waterfalls, or wandering around charming colonial-era towns that reflect the island’s multicultural heritage.
Another day to soak in the beauty of Mauritius. Swim in the crystal-clear waters, explore coral reefs, or watch a golden sunset with a refreshing cocktail in hand. In the evening, enjoy fine dining at your resort, sampling local Creole flavours blended with international cuisine.
After breakfast, you’ll be transferred to the airport for your flight to Johannesburg, South Africa. Upon arrival, you’ll be met and transferred to your hotel for an overnight stay, with the evening free to rest before your safari adventure begins.
