I loved this! The guide, Bryn, had such knowledge and passion for the nature of Mauritius and he was amazing. Almost Bear Grylls vibes. The view on the top and all the things I've learned about Mauritius, wow. It was a bit challenging physically at times, so bring a lot of water and warm up your leg muscles.
