ou can use Unwind Mauritius to plan every part of your holiday independently.
But some travellers want more than directions and a list of places to visit.
They want to understand what they are seeing.
They want someone who can explain why a place matters, tell the stories behind it, introduce the culture, answer their questions and take care of the details throughout the day.
That is where an Unwind Mauritius private tour is different.
Every Unwind Mauritius tour is private.
Your SUV is reserved exclusively for you and your party, and your dedicated chauffeur-guide — your Unwind Expert — remains with you throughout your experience.
Rather than simply driving between attractions, your Expert helps you understand each place you visit.
Discover its history | Learn about the traditions and communities around it | Ask questions | Hear stories that are difficult to discover from a signboard or guidebook.
And enjoy the freedom of exploring without a coach full of strangers or a large group schedule.
The person guiding your journey is one of the most important parts of an Unwind Mauritius experience.
Where the itinerary allows, your Expert accompanies you through the attractions rather than simply waiting beside the vehicle.
Learn about the history, traditions, cultures and communities that have shaped the island.
Because your experience is private, your Expert can understand your interests and help make the day more meaningful to you.
A great day exploring Mauritius should not feel like a day spent organising Mauritius.
Our private tours are designed to take care of the details in advance so you can concentrate on enjoying the island.
Travel comfortably in a private SUV reserved exclusively for your party.
Entrance fees listed within your chosen tour are included and organised in advance.
Where priority or pre-arranged access is available, we organise it to help your day flow as smoothly as possible.
Tell us about your interests, dietary requirements and allergies before the tour so we can prepare accordingly.
Mauritian cuisine tells the story of the island in a way few attractions can.
African, Indian, Chinese, European and Creole influences have met here over generations and created something distinctly Mauritian.
That is why lunch on an Unwind tour is not treated simply as a meal break.
Your Expert joins you at the table, helps explain local dishes and flavours and can recommend what to try according to your preferences.
Enjoy a three-course meal with beverages while discovering another important part of Mauritius: its food.
Dietary requirements and allergies can be shared with us before your tour so that suitable arrangements can be considered.
Private touring is about more than having a vehicle to yourself. It means being able to experience Mauritius in a way that feels comfortable and relevant to you.
Before your tour, we encourage you to tell us about your interests, dietary requirements, allergies and anything else that could help us understand your preferences. Your Expert can then approach the day with you in mind.
Families may want a different pace from couples | A guest fascinated by history may want more detail at a heritage site | A food lover may have more questions at lunch | Someone visiting Mauritius for the first time may simply want to understand as much as possible.
There is no need for every private experience to feel exactly the same.

Unwind Mauritius was created from a passion for helping people discover this island beyond the surface.
For us, Mauritius is not simply a collection of attractions.
It is the story behind a village | The reason a temple was built in a particular place | The history hidden inside an old building | The food served at a family table | The mountains, forests and coastlines that shaped communities around them | And the people who continue to make Mauritius what it is today.
That is why Unwind Mauritius has two purposes.
We want to build one of the most useful and comprehensive resources available to anyone planning or learning about Mauritius.
And for travellers who want to go deeper, we create private journeys where our Experts can bring those places and stories to life.
Whether you explore Mauritius with us or completely on your own, we hope Unwind helps you understand the island a little better.
