Review of Mauritius’s Tamarin kayak tour, with sunrise views, dolphin sightings, river wildlife, pricing, practical tips, and honest drawbacks.
“We were lucky to see the dolphins, which was amazing. But even just kayaking in the bay and on the river was really nice. We also got a crash course on the island’s mountains and a bit of history. This experience was much more authentic and peaceful than being on a speedboat to watch dolphins!”

Swim with wild dolphins, snorkel near Crystal Rock, and enjoy a BBQ on Benitier Island during this seven-hour Mauritius speedboat tour.

Paddle the calm Tamarin River at sunrise, spot wildlife, hear local stories, and decide if this peaceful 90-minute kayak tour is worth $49.
“We were on a sunrise Kayaking with Eliza. Unfortunately it was too cloudy to see the sunrise, but it is part of the business if you deal with mother nature. But Eliza brought us into the “jungle”. We saw monkeys, flying foxes. She was very helpful and told us many about the nature around us. She was a real guide! The river was calm and peaceful.”
Swim with dolphins, snorkel at Crystal Rock, and enjoy halal lunch on Benitiers Island in this early-morning Mauritius speedboat tour.
“No dolphins (understandable, but this boat wasn't really suitable for rougher seas). The boat was too slow (only one engine). Snorkeling at a well-known spot near the hotel, so nothing new. Lunch was fine. Long wait on the island. Promised a second snorkeling trip, but it didn't happen. Returned later than indicated.”
Review of Mauritius dolphin swim and snorkeling tour, with boat details, timing, wildlife concerns, price value, tips, and booking advice.
“We had a great trip, saw the dolphins, and even got to swim with them. However, the description of the trip said there were only 7 people on the boat, but we were 9 adults, 2 kids, and 2 guides. But the boat wasn't too crowded anyway. We'd book this trip again anytime”
Paddle Mauritius’s Rempart River, spot wild monkeys, learn about mangroves, and enjoy a quiet three-hour guided kayak tour for $35.
“super moment passé avec notre guide kenan, on a pu observer une vingtaine de singes, c'était magnifique et relaxant! super explication et bon contact avec nous, petit groupe sympa de 4 personnes”
Review of the seven-hour Île des Deux Cocos boat tour from Mahebourg, with snorkeling, beach time, barbecue lunch, and unlimited drinks.
“Ile Deux Cocos was absolutely amazing!!! The staff on the island made me feel very much at home and the food was incredible!!!! I refrained from giving five stars because I feel that the cost was overpriced and this was supported by what I subsequently learned after the trip. The quality of the see-through glass of the boat made most of the sea life look darker than it was.”
Review of Mauritius’s private dolphin snorkeling tour, with speedboat access, free equipment, guide support, drinks, pricing, and practical tips.
“We saw dolphins. It's a shame that about 10-15 other boats chased the dolphins.”
Pick a coast, a mountain or a jetty.
