Day 1 – Fly to Mauritius – The Journey to Forever

Your honeymoon begins not on the sand, but with the quiet excitement of the airport lounge. As you board your overnight flight from the UK, the hustle of wedding planning finally fades into the background. This is your time to disconnect from the world; settle into your seats, enjoy a glass of champagne, and watch the clouds drift by as you fly toward the heart of the Indian Ocean. There is a special kind of magic in an overnight flight to a tropical destination—a sense of suspension between your old life and your new adventure together. By the time the cabin lights dim, you’ll be dreaming of turquoise lagoons and the warm Mauritian sun that awaits you at dawn.

Day 2 – Arrival → Tropical Awakening and Tamarina Bay

Touchdown in paradise! As you descend over the island, the vibrant coral reefs and emerald-green mountains come into view. You’ll be met at Sir Seewoosagur Ramgoolam International Airport by your private Earth Trip representative, who will whisk you away to the northwest coast. Your destination is the beautiful Tamarina Bay area, specifically the Ravenala Attitude hotel. After checking into your suite, the afternoon is yours to simply breathe. Feel the soft sand between your toes for the first time, listen to the rustle of palm fronds, and share a quiet dinner as the sun sets over the ocean, painting the sky in shades of gold and violet to celebrate your first night on the island.

Day 3 – Tamarina Bay – The Art of Doing Nothing

After the journey and the excitement of arrival, Day 3 is a dedicated gift of time. There is no schedule today—only the rhythm of the tides. You might choose to sleep in late, waking only for a slow breakfast of tropical fruits and local pastries. Spend your hours lounging by the pool or finding a secluded spot on the beach where the only “task” is deciding which cocktail to order next. It’s a day for deep relaxation, allowing your bodies and minds to fully adjust to the slow, soulful pace of Mauritian life. As evening falls, enjoy another gourmet meal at the resort, perhaps trying local Creole flavors that are as vibrant and colorful as the island itself.

Day 4 – A North Island Romance – From Botanical Wonders to Coastal Vistas

After a leisurely breakfast shared on your terrace, your private guide will whisk you away to discover the authentic heart and northern soul of Mauritius. Your morning begins at the Pamplemousses Botanical Gardens, one of the oldest and most enchanting gardens in the world. Named after the abundant Pomélo trees of the region, these 60 acres of lush greenery offer a serene escape for a romantic stroll. Wander hand-in-hand beneath a canopy of rare palm varieties and find yourselves at the famous giant water lily ponds, where tadpoles and frogs dance among the massive floating leaves. Look up to find fruit bats hanging lazily from the branches and pause by the lakes to watch giant turtles and fish glide through the water. It is a place of deep history, where you can walk in the footsteps of legends like Nelson Mandela and Indira Gandhi, who both planted trees in this very soil.

As the morning unfolds, your journey continues to L’Aventure du Sucre, an ancient sugar factory transformed into an extraordinary museum that feels like a step back in time. Housed in the magnificent old mill of the Beau Plan sugar estate, this museum tells the captivating story of how “white gold” shaped the island’s identity during the colonial era. Exploring the rustic, vaulted halls of the mill together offers a fascinating glimpse into the island’s soul, culminating in a delightfully sensory experience: a special sugar tasting followed by a sampling of local rums—a toast to your future in the very place that built the island’s heritage.

For a truly indulgent midday break, you have the option to dine at Le Fangourin Restaurant. Set in a charming, verdant atmosphere, it is the perfect spot for a “honeymooners’ lunch.” Imagine sharing a plate of succulent, locally caught fish like vaccoas, drizzled with parsley-flavoured olive oil, and finishing the meal with one of the island’s signature flavoured rums. It is a moment to dine with gusto and soak in the tropical breeze before heading to the northernmost tip of the island: the picturesque fishing village of Cap Malheureux.

Though its name translates to “Cape Unlucky” due to the historic shipwrecks nearby, you will find only beauty and peace here. The contrast of the iconic red-roofed chapel against the tranquil, turquoise lagoon is breathtaking. Spend some time soaking up the local atmosphere and gazing out toward the dramatic silhouette of the Island of Coin De Mire on the horizon. It is a scene of pure serenity—ensure you have your camera ready, as these are the vibrant, sun-drenched memories you will treasure for a lifetime.

Day 5 – The Sacred Heart & Seven Colors – A Journey of Iconic Beauty of Mauritius

Awaken early to the soft glow of the Mauritian sun and share a quiet breakfast before setting out on a day designed to showcase the island’s most awe-inspiring landscapes. Your journey begins in the picturesque town of Curepipe, where you’ll take a romantic step back in time at the Domaine des Aubineaux. This exquisite colonial house, with its stately architecture and manicured grounds, offers a glimpse into a refined bygone era. From there, you’ll ascend to the rim of Trou-aux-Cerfs, a dormant volcano that has stood silent for over 700,000 years. Standing together at the peak of this magnificent mountain, you can breathe in the crisp air and enjoy breathtaking, 360-degree views that stretch across the island’s lush interior.

Continuing into the mist-shrouded highlands, you will arrive at the miraculous Grand Bassin, also known as Ganga Talao. This is the island’s most sacred lake, a place of profound spirituality for the Hindu community. It is a moving experience to stand by the water’s edge, where it is believed the lake communicates with the holy Ganges of India. As you honor the legendary Lord Siva with your presence, you’ll feel the deep peace of this pilgrimage site, perhaps catching the scent of incense drifting on the breeze—a truly soulful moment to share as a couple.

The adventure continues as you wind through the heartland of Mauritius, entering the magnificent forest reserve of Plaine Champagne. This route, framed by vibrant flora, leads you to a privileged lookout point overlooking the spectacular Black River Gorges. Together, you can feast your eyes on the sheer scale of the imposing cliffs and the verdant canopy below, watching as the river carves its way through the valley—a view so unique and grand it feels as though it was painted just for you.

Finally, we have reserved the best for last: the world-only phenomenon of Chamarel. You will find yourselves mesmerized by the Seven Coloured Earths, an unusual landscape where the ground undulates in patterns of red, violet, blue, and ochre. These patterns, created by volcanic rocks cooling at different temperatures, play tricks on the eyes and never fail to amaze. Just a stone’s throw away, the magic continues at the Chamarel Waterfall. Watch as the water emerges from the moors and plunges dramatically down toward the colored earths, a bewitching and breathtaking sight that serves as the perfect finale to your day of discovery.

As the sun begins its descent, you’ll return to the secluded luxury of The Ravenala Attitude, where a delicious dinner awaits to cap off an unforgettable day.

Day 6 – Port Louis & Rum Distillery – Cosmopolitan Charms & The Art of the Spirit

Your morning begins with a journey into the vibrant heart of the island: Port Louis. Founded in 1735 by the French governor Bertrand-François Mahé de La Bourdonnais, this cosmopolitan capital is a beautiful mosaic of history and modern Mauritian life. As you wander through the city, you’ll feel the buzz of the island’s administrative and business hub, but the true romance lies in its cultural treasures. Hand-in-hand, you can explore the Central Market, a sensory focal point where the “soul of Mauritius” comes alive through the scent of exotic spices and the vivid colors of local crafts. Don’t miss the chance to see the Champ de Mars, the oldest racecourse in the Southern Hemisphere, which stands as a grand testament to the city’s storied past.

After soaking in the city’s energy, the afternoon takes a sophisticated and sensory turn as you head to the world-renowned Rhumerie de Chamarel. Nestled in a fertile valley, this distillery is a masterclass in artisanal craft. You’ll be treated to a private guided tour, going behind the scenes to see how the domain’s own sugarcane is meticulously handpicked at peak maturity and rapidly transported to ensure the purest juice extracts.

As you walk through the distillery, you’ll learn about the unique fermentation techniques that develop the rum’s signature aromas and deep, complex flavors. The experience culminates in a refined Rum Tasting, where you can sample the distillery’s finest creations—a perfect way to toast to your honeymoon. The tour is expertly conducted in either English or French, lasting about 30 to 40 minutes, ensuring you have plenty of time to savor the spirits and the stunning estate views before returning to your retreat for the evening.
