Child seats, the right vehicle size and family-friendly days out: how to make getting around Mauritius easy with children.
Mauritius is a wonderful family destination, with calm lagoons, friendly people and plenty to see. A little planning makes getting around much easier.
Book your airport transfer in advance
After a long flight, the last thing you want is to queue for a taxi with tired children. A pre-booked private transfer means your driver is waiting at arrivals and the price is fixed.
Ask for child seats
Child and baby seats are available on request at no extra cost. Let us know your children’s ages when you book.
Choose the right vehicle
- Family of 4 with normal luggage: sedan or SUV
- Larger families or lots of bags: 7-seater
- Travelling with friends or grandparents: minibus for up to 14 passengers
Family-friendly days out
Children love the giant water lilies at Pamplemousses on the North Tour, the coloured dunes at Chamarel and a catamaran day with snorkelling.
