Getting Around Savanne

Getting Around

Mauritius is relatively small, but because there’s only one highway, travel can take a while. Car hire is an option but is recommended for confident drivers only due to the road conditions. 

 

Buses operate in most of Mauritius, apart from the Plaine Champagne nature zone. There are express bus services but if you wish to reach your destination faster, it's best to choose other modes of transport.

 

The roads in Mauritius are generally very narrow lanes that wind through the countryside, so driving from A to B can be challenging, but it is perfectly possible to hire a car. You drive on the left-hand side in Mauritius and petrol is cheap. Taxis run on a metre and a printed fare schedule is available with the driver.

Passports and Visas

Upon arrival in Mauritius, British Nationals can attain a visa that is usually valid for 3 months. Your passport should be valid for the duration of your stay. For more information and advice, visit www.gov.uk/foreign-travel-advice/mauritius/entry-requirements or the Foreign Office at www.fco.gov.uk/en/

Health and Safety

Take out comprehensive travel insurance before you head to Mauritius. If you plan on diving, make sure you have a policy that covers you for this. For more info, see www.gov.uk/foreign-travel-advice/mauritius/health

Vaccinations

British Citizens currently don’t require any special jabs for a holiday in Mauritius, but routine jabs should be up to date. Check latest guidelines with your GP before you travel.
