Embarking on Custom Travel Packages to Mauritius

Mauritius isn't merely a destination; it's an experience. Opting for custom travel packages to Mauritius means every moment of your trip can be crafted to suit your needs. Whether you're an adventure seeker with a penchant for hiking through lush, verdant hills or a relaxation enthusiast eager to lounge by secluded beaches, there's a package that resonates with your heart's desire. A bespoke travel experience transforms your vacation into a personalized narrative, making memories that last a lifetime.

Must-Visit Attractions

Mauritius is replete with attractions that cater to diverse interests. Begin your exploration at the Black River Gorges National Park, where endemic flora and fauna thrive against the backdrop of dramatic landscapes. Hikers will find solace on its trails, while bird-watchers can spot the rare pink pigeon—a treasure of Mauritian biodiversity.

For a touch of culture, a visit to the Aapravasi Ghat is essential. This UNESCO World Heritage Site offers a poignant look into the island’s history, serving as a reminder of the migratory journeys that have shaped its cultural tapestry. Moreover, stroll through the bustling streets of Port Louis, where vibrant markets and colonial architecture narrate stories of its eclectic past.

Unique Cultural Experiences

Mauritius is a cultural mosaic, a blend of Creole, Indian, Chinese, and French influences. Dive into the rich tapestry of Mauritian culture through its festivals, like the mesmerizing Cavadee or the vibrant Diwali celebrations, where the island lights up with joy and colour.

Don't miss out on the culinary journey that awaits. Mauritian cuisine is an explosion of flavours, where spicy curries meet sweet tropical fruits. Opt for a cooking class to learn how to prepare traditional dishes such as dholl puri or rougaille, giving you a taste of Mauritius you can take home.

Tantalizing Food Highlights

A visit to Mauritius is never complete without indulging in its culinary delights. From street food to fine dining, the island offers a gastronomic paradise. Relish the tangy gateaux piments as you wander through local markets, or savour a seafood feast by the beach with freshly caught fish grilled to perfection.

For something truly special, visit the town of Mahebourg for its renowned Monday Market where an assortment of local snacks, fresh fruits, and spices will entice you. Engage with local vendors to hear stories of traditional recipes passed down through generations, a true reflection of Mauritius's rich cultural history.

Practical Travel Tips

When exploring Mauritius with your custom travel package, a few tips can help enhance your experience. Always carry lightweight clothing suitable for the tropical climate. Don’t forget your sunscreen and a good hat as protection against the sun is essential. When visiting religious sites, modest dress is advised out of respect for local customs.

Transportation around Mauritius is convenient with numerous car rental options and a reliable taxi service. For a local experience, hop onto a public bus and witness the everyday life of Mauritians unfold before your eyes.

Whether you're seeking new adventures or a peaceful retreat, Mauritius vacation packages ensure that your journey is as unique as the island itself.

You should try a Zen meditation session. Imagine slipping into a silk kimono for the day—carefully tied by an expert dresser, every fold precise, every colour chosen to suit the season. It’s a ritual that feels as personal as it is timeless.

What do I love about Japan? In a word - EVERYTHING. The incredible contrast that Japan offers - new/innovative vs old/traditional, the warm and welcoming people, the incredible rich culture, the culinary wonders awaiting around every corner, the cleanliness, efficiency and safety. It's one of the best places to visit in Asia in my opinion.

Pub Street in Siem Reap, Cambodia, is a local favourite with very inexpensive drinks. It's also a great place to try the local delicacy, BBQ frog.

I love how laidback and relaxed Laos is compared to other countries in Southeast Asia. It's like the best of Vietnam, Cambodia, and Thailand all rolled into one, and then sent back in time 20 to 30 years.

We booked our 3,week tour of Vietnam, Laos and Cambodia and overall it was an excellent experience. I typically book my own travel, but travelling with a group and wanting tours in each destination made GoWay a great choice. We had great hotels and good guides in each city. I will say that our standout guide was Romeo Tran in Ho Chi Minh City. We spent a few days in the city, as well as an over night boat ride on the delta, and he was fantastic. We had alot of fun with him, and would highly recommend him in particular. Neil Braun

We booked a Viking cruise (Venice to Athens) through Goway Travel and it was fantastic! Our agent Kimberly was extremely helpful with air travel options, choosing excursions, and suggestions for pre and post cruise activities. Great communications and a really enjoyable experience.Stanley

We booked through Paula Williamson in the Toronto office, a Great Journeys New Zealand trip and it was fantastic! Although I had already scheduled a trip on The Ghan train in Australia, Paula helped me work it all as one huge 45 day trip including Bali Indonesia. My favorite was the New Zealand trip as I’d never been there before and the tour guide Toni was so spectacular and caring. I’m so pleased Goway was involved and I didn’t require any additional assistance once We'd started the first flight March 8. If we do another overseas trip, Goway will be involved.John

Michael Keon arranged our recent trip to Malta. I gave him a rough outline of what we were looking for and he responded quickly making great suggestions, offering alternatives as needed and booking everything. The hotel, excursions and transport he arranged were all exactly what we hoped for. We will be asking Michael to book our future European vacations. Mayssa Mirshak

Our first trip with Goway was a total joy. Shalini worked with me to plan a trip for 5 adults to Portugal. She is a gem! Always responded quickly and offered great suggestions for activities, worked with our preferences and created an ideal itinerary for a week in Porto and Lisbon. The tours were excellent with engaging local guides. The food tour in Lisbon was a highlight. Everything was top notch - flight schedule, hotels, activities, even the weather! Patricia

It is with the utmost pleasure and heartfelt appreciation that I share my exceptional experience working with Taha Colombowala, Goway's distinguished Groups Specialist. Our journey together began in October 2023, when Taha took the helm in orchestrating what was to be a remarkable group trip to Ghana. When unforeseen circumstances necessitated a change in plans, Taha demonstrated his extraordinary expertise by recommending Morocco as an alternative destination — a suggestion that proved to be nothing short of absolutely brilliant! From the very first interaction to the final farewell, Taha has been a consummate professional in every sense of the word. His lightning-fast response times, encyclopedic knowledge of destinations, and remarkable ability to pivot seamlessly under pressure are truly second to none. What sets Taha apart, however, is not only his professional acumen but also his warm, patient, and genuinely enthusiastic attitude toward accommodating the unique needs and personalities of every member of our group. Taha Colombowala is, without question, a shining star within the Goway family, and an extraordinary ambassador for everything the brand represents. I cannot recommend him highly enough — he has exceeded every expectation and then some. Working with Taha has been an absolute privilege, and I look forward to many more incredible adventures ahead!DESIREE DUCKETT

We recently completed a custom Vietnam tour organized by Goway, and it was everything we asked for and more. We would definitely choose Goway again. The true highlights of our trip, however, were our two guides: Vu Dang and Thien. They truly made our experience unforgettable. Both were incredibly knowledgeable, thoughtful, and kind. Their pride in their Vietnamese heritage shone through in every conversation, making our learning experience both deep and engaging. We learned so much in such a short time, and it was always fascinating. I would highly recommend these two guides to anyone visiting Vietnam!Laura Derbyshire

Everything was expertly planned, from the drivers to the hotels to the tours to the flights. We particularly enjoyed Hobart and the animal sanctuary, Adelaide and the trip to Kangaroo Island, Melbourne and the evening tour with dinner and drinks, and Sydney with the private boat cruise of the Harbour. We will definitely use Goway again.SARA Wiebe

There were 4 travelers on this trip. All of us were in our late 70's. We started planning this trip 6 months prior to our travel date and had a lot of questions regarding this trip. Our Goway Travel Specialist, Karen Larrota, always answered our questions in a timely and complete manner. We traveled to Quito, Ecuador, the Galapagos, The Sacred Valley in Peru, Machu Picchu, and Cusco in Peru. Not only were the destinations and accommodations excellent, but every tour guide and driver were beyond excellent. The entire trip went smoothly every step of the way, which was amazing given the fact that there were numerous flights and hotels included in our package. We found out that the tour company that Goway used, Condor Travel, checked on us with our guide to make sure we were doing OK which we thought was very nice but also amusing as we are fairly fit older adults. Would also like to mention that we did a cruise thru the Galapagos on the Galapagos Legend which was arranged thru Go Galapagos - Kleintouurs. This portion of our tour was also excellent as were the wildlife guides and staff. We continue to discuss how wonderful this trip was with our family and friends and how wonderful this experience was. Would definately use Goway for our travel needs in the future.Dianne
