Review of Mauritius’s Tamarin River kayak tour, with calm water, mangroves, wildlife, local stories, practical tips, and honest value advice.
“Would highly recommend this activity to anyone visiting Mauritius. Gilles, our guide, was absolutely fantastic and so kind. Giving us loads of information about wildlife and surrounding scenery as we paddled and he also very kindly took and sent lots of pictures on his phone so we didn’t have to risk getting our phones out on the river! The activity is listed as 90 minutes but Gilles let us stop for lots of pictures and to soak in the scenery and we didn’t feel rushed at all. Parking is very easy for anyone driving to the activity and there is a shower outside to rinse off when you finish.”
