What makes Port Louis a must-visit destination?

Founded back in 1736, Port Louis lies in the west Indian Ocean, sheltered between a deepwater harbour and a semicircular chain of mountains. Blending perfectly the contemporary charm and glamour with its 300 years old customs, Port Louis presents before the world an awe-inspiring blend of history and modernity. The culture of this flamboyant city has been deeply influenced by the customs of countries like India, China, Africa, the Middle East, and Europe. The beauty of Port Louis lies in its artistic, musical, historical, and architectural heritage.

The city’s colonial vibes, brilliantly architectural marvels, and stunning views of the Indian Ocean and the Moka mountain ranges perfectly define the charm of this exuberant city. The city of Port Louis brims with a myriad of enchanting attractions that range from intriguing museums and stunning monuments to breathtaking gardens and swanky hotels. While Pointe aux Piments Public Beach and Baie Du Tombeau Beach define the beach culture of the Mauritian island, while the Natural History Museum and the Blue Penny Museum unravel the age-old history of the country.

Microbreweries like Flying Dodo Brewing Company and casinos like Ti Vegas Casino Quatre Bornes familiarize you with the lively nightlife culture of the city, whereas lush gardens like Pamplemousses Botanical Garden and Jardins de la Compagnie assure you of the calmer and more serene side of Port Louis. While you are holidaying in Port Louis, you can engage in an array of fun-filled activities.

From exploring the intriguing Chinatown of Mauritius and finding sanctuary at Jummah Masjid to basking in the spectacular views from Fort Adelaide to walking through history at Aapravasi Ghat, there’s so much to do in Port Louis for an action-packed holiday. Bestowed with a tropical maritime climate, Port Louis enjoys a sunny and balmy weather almost throughout the year with constant sea breeze keeping the city cool and pleasant. The best time to visit Port Louis is during the summer months of May to December when the weather is salubrious and the beaches are bright and sparkling.

It was our honeymoon trip to Mauritius and we are truly grateful to Thrillophilia for making it so special. Right from booking till the last day everything was taken care of properly. Our coordinator Neha mam was very helpful from the start. All information was shared on WhatsApp one day before each activity so we always knew what was happening next. No confusion at any point during the trip. The whole trip was hassle free and well organised. Big thanks to Neha mam and the whole team at Thrillophilia. Will definitely plan our next international trip with them only.

Mauritius family package was one of those rare holidays where everyone from grandparents to toddlers had a brilliant time. The lagoons, the beaches and the sheer friendliness of the locals made every day feel effortless and warm.

I recently had a Mauritius trip with Thrillophilia and overall it was a very nice experience. Our agent was friendly and gave us many options keeping our budget in mind. She also did continuous follow up during the planning stage which was reassuring. The trip itself was well planned. Ile Aux Cerfs island was beautiful, the 7 coloured earth at Chamarel was something we had seen in pictures but it still surprised us in person. The resort on the lagoon was comfortable and the food was good. One thing I will mention honestly is that I was told there would be a briefing call two days before departure but that did not happen. Because of this there was a small confusion at the airport about our transfer. Once I called the team it was sorted quickly but I feel the pre-departure communication could be a little tighter. Other than that the trip was wonderful and I have already recommended Thrillophilia to two friends who are planning trips this year.

We booked the Mauritius package for our anniversary through Thrillophilia. The agent was patient and took time to understand what kind of trip we were looking for rather than pushing a standard package. April in Mauritius turned out to be a good choice as the island was green after the earlier rains and the sea was calm enough for the catamaran trip to Ile Aux Cerfs to be smooth. The 7-coloured earth at Chamarel was more vivid in person than any picture we had seen. Belle Mare beach on the last morning before checkout. A helicopter ride for the underwater waterfall view was suggested by our coordinator and we almost did not add it for budget reasons but it turned out to be unlike anything else on the trip. Our resort was directly on the lagoon. One small feedback is that the briefing call before departure did not happen which left us with a few unanswered questions we only got clarity on at the airport. Overall a very good trip and we would book with them again. Ki moja chhilo.

The weather was perfect and the island was less crowded. Ile Aux Cerfs island hopping was the best day of the trip. The 7-coloured earth at Chamarel genuinely looks like a painting. Hotel staff were incredibly warm and hospitable.
