Why book a flight to Mauritius

An island of sea and sun, spices and flowers, breathtaking landscapes, and picturesque views: we are talking about Mauritius, an Indian Ocean archipelago best known for its main island of the same name. A trip to Mauritius is a great way to immerse yourself in a country that seems almost suspended in time. You can forget the pace of everyday life and discover a little corner of paradise. Mauritius is an idyllic island in every way: from lagoons to beaches, rainforests to waterfalls, coral reefs to mountains. With Neos Air's flights to Mauritius, you can discover a colorful country full of surprises. It is a must-visit destination for lovers of lush nature and outdoor activities such as hiking, but that's not all: its beaches are a daydream.

Getting around Mauritius

Flights to Mauritius land at Sir Seewoosagur Ramgoolam International Airport. It is located a short distance from Port Louis, the country's capital, and is also well connected to some of its main destinations. For example, the airport is connected to the city by a bus journey on the 198 line, which takes just over an hour to reach the destination. The 198 is also the ideal bus to reach the town of Mahebourgh, along with lines 9 and 10. The latter is also perfect for reaching Rivière des Gallets in the south of the island. Buses are very frequent, but you can also get around by hiring a car or taking a taxi.

What to visit in Mauritius

What about the cities? The capital city of Port Luis is beautiful and full of things to see. Among its main attractions are Fort Adelaide and the Central Market, where you will find many unique pieces of local handicrafts. Stroll along Place de Armes and immerse yourself in the daily life of the city. Another thing to do in Mauritius is to visit one of its many spice, tea or sugar plantations. Last, but certainly not least, are the beaches of the Mauritius archipelago: idyllic shores where white sand meets a colorful sea. Perhaps the most famous beach is the one at Flic En Flac, a small tropical oasis. The tip of the Le Morne peninsula is particularly appreciated not only for the unspoilt nature that surrounds its beaches, but also for the spectacle of the large underwater waterfall that can be admired from the top of the promontory.

Where to eat

Mauritius has been a center of trade and commerce for centuries. Its territory has been traversed by all kinds of cultures, which has contributed to the richness of its culinary traditions. This, and the great passage of spices from all over the world, has made its typical cuisine incredibly rich. Many dishes are seasoned with ingredients such as coriander, paprika, turmeric, ginger, saffron and rosewater. Many are made with rice and chicken, accompanied by hearts of palm or drizzled with honey. Many restaurants provide a gourmet take on traditional Mauritian dishes, but there are still many traditional eateries and street food stalls where you can sample the more authentic version.
