Mauritius Family 6N keeps the family in one hotel at Flic en Flac on the west coast for all six nights. Travellers say changing hotels often and long cross-island days are the most common mistakes, so this plan removes both. It suits families with children and groups of mixed ages.
The west base is close to the southwest highlands. You visit Chamarel and Black River Gorges National Park, then the Le Morne Brabant area. One day covers Port Louis and Pamplemousses Botanical Garden, and two days are left for the beach and lagoon at an easy pace. Each day ends back at the same hotel, so children keep a steady routine.
The price includes six nights in comfort-category hotels on twin sharing, daily breakfast and dinner, private airport transfers, private-vehicle sightseeing and visa assistance. Flights, lunches, boat trips and entry fees not listed in your quote are extra. Read our Mauritius travel guide for planning tips.
Your trip expert can stretch, shorten or swap any day.
Land at Sir Seewoosagur Ramgoolam International Airport (MRU) and meet your driver for the private transfer to Flic en Flac on the west coast. Check in, let the children rest and keep the evening easy with dinner at the hotel. Your single hotel base means no repacking during the week.
Spend a slow day at Flic en Flac, one of the island's popular swimming beaches. Check lagoon conditions and any kids' club on offer at your hotel before you plan activities. A lagoon or catamaran trip can be added to your quote. Use the day to recover from the flight.
Drive to Port Louis and visit Central Market early, before the traffic builds. Walk the waterfront. Then continue to Pamplemousses Botanical Garden to see the giant Victoria amazonica water lilies. Allow at least 90 minutes there. This is a full day with long drives, so bring snacks and water.
Head into the southwest highlands for the Seven Coloured Earth and Chamarel waterfall. Treat it as a proper outing, not a quick photo stop. Return to the hotel for a rest in the afternoon. The west base keeps the drive shorter than it would be from the north or east.
Visit Black River Gorges National Park, the island's main upland protected area, for forest viewpoints and the chance to see endemic birds. Trail conditions and visibility change quickly, so wear walking shoes and carry water. Ask your planner to match the walking to your family's ages and stamina.
Drive south to the Le Morne Brabant area, a UNESCO-listed mountain and peninsula, for the viewpoint and the coastline. The summit hike is strenuous and not part of this day. Return to Flic en Flac for a free afternoon of swimming and a farewell dinner.
Enjoy breakfast and check out. If your flight is later in the day, use the morning for a last swim. Your driver takes you to Sir Seewoosagur Ramgoolam International Airport (MRU), with enough time for traffic and check-in.

Six nights in a comfort-category hotel on twin sharing, daily breakfast and dinner, private airport transfers, private-vehicle sightseeing as per the itinerary and visa assistance. Flights, lunches, boat trips and unlisted entry fees are extra. Ask for a family-room quote.
Yes. Ask your planner to add a catamaran or lagoon trip. Confirm whether lunch, transfers and water activities are included, because headline prices often exclude extras. They are not part of the base package, and sea conditions can change.
Trails vary and conditions change quickly, so your planner will match the walking to your children's ages. Wear walking shoes, carry water and do not plan a beachwear day there. The viewpoints need little walking compared with the longer trails.
