I was surprised to find great safari parks and waterfals and lovely beaches that gives mauritius the reputation it has.We went to a safari ther called Yemen safari park actually, in the mountains with all the wildlife and so on.They have a submarine too there that take you under water around the country and Glass bottom boats and so on.I think another plus it the dolphins, if you are a swimmer they take you swimming with the dolphins and there is scuba diving too.It is just great.They have a place called vanilla Park where they bred Crocodiles and Also have massive Tortoises , my kids rode on their back I mean that is how big they are.
