Mauritius.

The gentle finale.

Mauritius is where many of our guests choose to end. After the dust of safari and the salt of the sea, the island offers something quietly different — a layered Creole culture, dramatic volcanic interiors, championship golf, and a roster of resorts that genuinely rival the Mediterranean and the Caribbean.

Pair Kenya or Tanzania with Mauritius for a complete African journey: wildlife, culture, and a final week of considered, polished, deeply restful indulgence. The flights are easy, the resorts are world-class, and the island is small enough to explore in a few days.

Our most-booked combination is six nights — three on the west coast for sunsets, three on the east for swimming and serenity. Add a day in the Black River Gorges, a Creole table d'hôte in the south, and a catamaran sail to Île aux Cerfs, and Mauritius becomes far more than a beach.
