5 great Tips when planning a Mauritius visit
1. Try to plan your Mauritius holiday, wedding or honeymoon during the months from May to mid September. This is low season in Mauritius and specials are run frequently. Low season still offers beautiful weather.
2. Always try to pre book a fully inclusive travel package because these are cheaper than booking flights, transfers, accommodation seperately. Packages are all discounted and carry quite a saving.
3. Fully inclusive means ALL meals, drinks, snacks and sometimes the mini bar is also included. Mauritius can be expensive when you are forking out money for each and every drink, little snack and so on. The ocean has a beautiful effect on ones appetite so you will find yourself snacking a lot. Pre purchasing a fully inclusive package means that everything is included and pre paid before you arrive on the island so leaves you with very little to worry about.
4. If you hire a taxi to take you anywhere in Mauritius, make 100% sure that you negotiate a price before leaving your resort especially if the taxi does not have a meter.
5. If you plan to get married in Mauritius, make sure that you understand the legal side of things and exactly how they are done on the island. It is highly important to note that paperwork is signed in Port Louis at the registrars offices a day or two prior to your wedding ceremony taking place. Make sure that all your documentation is taken along with you. Your bridal consultant will tell you exactly what paperwork needs to be taken and it’s important to keep these safe. Bear in mind that English and French are the main languages on the island so if ANY of the wording on your documentation is in Afrikaans or another language, you need to have the words translated and certified.
