1. Taxis are the preferred means to get around
in Mauritius. When you arrive at the airport of Mauritius
or at the seaport, be sure to have already booked
your airport transfer with a trusted transport
company. That would really ease your life.
The benefits of pre-booked airport transfers:
- driver will be waiting for you holding the sign with
your name on
- it’s a guarantee there will be a vehicle for
you at the time you request
- no need to queue for taxis or drag your bags around
searching for public transport.
2. When you are on way to your destination, ask your
driver for suggestions about what can
be done in the island. Don’t sit idle. The driver
knows the country well and he will be glad to help you.
3. Don’t forget to take the drivers’
contact details in case you will be needing
transport latter during your holidays. Also that may
help should you have forgotten any stuffs in the drivers
car.
4. Always take a taxi car that is registered
and fully equipped for your safety. Check if
baby seats are provided should you have babies traveling
with you.

Les taxis du monde selon
Lionel Cottu.
L’une des premières choses que font pas
mal de voyageurs quand ils arrivent dans une ville,
c’est d’ouvrir la portière d’un
taxi. Après des années de voyage, Lionel
Cottu, journaliste à la rédaction de France
3, a consacré un ouvrage à ce type de
véhicule dont le nom et la fonction sont identiques
en tous points du globe. Du rickshaw en Inde aux hydravions
des Maldives, il nous parle de ce moyen de transport
universel et de ses particularités locales. Retrouvez
aussi ses précieux conseils pour établir
un bon contact avec les chauffeurs, qui s’avèrent
le plus souvent être de très bons guides...
