Planning a trip to Mauritius
Pulled from the 2 routes below — so it says what these itineraries actually do, not what a brochure would.
When to go
Apr–Jun, Sep–Nov — the months these routes agree on.
How long you need
6–8 days. The shortest is Mauritius honeymoon in 6 days: the north, Le Morne and a catamaran; the longest is Mauritius in 8 days: the two-base island loop.
What it costs
≈ AED 400 to ≈ AED 1,050 per person per day, depending on the route. Beds, food, getting around and things to do — costed line by line in each guide, not estimated from a daily rate.
Entry on an Indian passport
No visa needed, 90 days. Checked 2026-11 against Wikipedia’s compilation of IATA Timatic entries. Entry rules depend on your passport and where you live, and they change with little notice — confirm with the embassy or your airline before you book. Check another country.
Where these routes go: North coast · Port Louis · Chamarel · Le Morne.

Best for: Two coasts with different weather, and a mountain in the sea to finish on
Mauritius honeymoon in 6 days: the north, Le Morne and a catamaran
North coast → Port Louis → Chamarel → Le Morne
Six days split between the sheltered north and the dramatic southwest under Le Morne, with a catamaran day to the islands and the Chamarel waterfall and coloured earths on the drive between them. Why the island has two climates at once, and which side to end on.

8 days
Best for: Beaches + road trip
Mauritius in 8 days: the two-base island loop
North coast → Port Louis → Chamarel → Le Morne
The island where India meets Africa in the middle of the ocean: sand in seven colours, a sacred lake with a 33-metre Shiva, catamaran days and a mountain the UNESCO list bows to — visa-free for most passports, and cheaper than it photographs.
