Day 01: ARRIVAL MAURITIUS
Upon arrival at the the airport, you will be met by an Africa Point representative and be transferred to your hotel for check-in. Mauritius is a petit Indian Ocean island that is one of the world’s finest sun, sand and sea destinations. The American writer Mark Twain was so enchanted by the islands exceptional beauty that he wrote: "You gather the idea that Mauritius was made first and then heaven, and that heaven was copied after Mauritius". Mauritius has successfully managed to position itself as an exotic beach destination. With beach destinations so plentiful, this has been sustained not by mere hype, but by the substance there is to this claim. Visitors are drawn to Mauritius by the reputation of its 140 km of white sand beaches, and the superb opportunities for water sports. Swimming, beach combing, sailing, surfing, kayaking, diving and deep-sea fishing - there is a sport for almost everyone.

The Royal Botanical Gardens: Away from the coast and almost directly south of Grand Baie is the Pamplemousses Gardens, also known as the Royal Botanical Gardens.
Grand Baie: This is the main holiday center for Mauritians and tourists alike. This is a former tiny fishing village.

Day 03: AT LEISURE
After breakfast at yor hotel, your day is free to enjoy Mauritius rich culture and history : a melting pot with four prominent ethnic groups: Indo-Mauritians –whose origins are in India; Creoles- of mixed African and European ancestry; Franco-Mauritians, the descendants of the original French settlers; and Sino-Mauritians, whose fore bearers can be traced back to China. All these people have multiplied with time, and had reached a count of 1.2 million by 2005.The Dutch were the first to make permanent settlement on the island, staying over between 1598 and 1712. They eventually lost their nerve after facing many trials brought by the forces of nature - cyclones, droughts floods. The French filled the void in the period 1715-1810,but lost out to Great Britain in the 1814 Treaty of Paris that followed the end of the Napoleonic Wars. The British remained in charge until independence in 1968.
