We enjoyed our Port Louis food tour with Taste Buddies. Our guide Christopher was wonderful, he was very friendly, passionate about Mauritius, Port Louis and the history of the island, and incredibly knowledgeable about Mauritius. He knew his way around the city, and guided us to several food tour stops. We enjoyed the food stops and appreciated how much ground we covered across the city, which also included the Company Gardens and the Natural History Museum. The food was eclectic and gave us a great sense of the culinary diversity of Mauritian cuisine which was made even richer by Christopher’s stories about the island. There could have been some more time for relaxation and taking more breaks along the way, but besides that, the tour was planned very well.

Good: The church with the red roof and the beach in the background. Port Louis from the viewing platform and the market. The turtles and water lilies in the botanical garden. Could be better: Offer water along the way. Guide with German language skills.
