Drive to Curepipe, a small residential town situated on the central plateau of Mauritius at an elevation of about 2,000 feet above sea level.
For a scenic diversion, you'll stop at the Trou aux Cerfs — an extinct crater offering a panoramic view of the town of Curepipe and of the surrounding mountains.
Next, visit a ship model factory and enjoy a buying spree in Chinese, Indian and European shops. The open market of Quatre Bornes includes a textile market every Thursday and Sunday, transforming this Mauritian town into a fabric Mecca. This is a perfect opportunity to grab a bargain.
Notes:
Tour does not operate on Sundays or holidays. Shade is limited; to avoid sunburn, wear light, long clothing suitable for use as a cover-up. Bring a hat and sunglasses; wear biodegradable/reef-safe sunscreen. Bring bottled water.
