A ready week, day by day: highly rated places, lunches, tours and trips out of town. Ratings and opening hours come from Tripadvisor, distances are real driving distances.

day1

Getting to know Airport Sir Seewoosagur Ramgoolam

An unhurried first day: the centre on foot, one landmark and a quiet dinner near where you're staying. Don't plan anything far — after travelling, getting your bearings matters more.

  • All day

    A free day — the market, the waterfront, the next neighbourhood over.

Hotel check-in is usually from 2pm — if you arrive earlier, most places will store your luggage.

day2

The main sights

The fullest day: two or three key places back to back. Start early — queues build by midday at the popular ones, and the light is better for photographs after lunch.

  • All day

    A free day — the market, the waterfront, the next neighbourhood over.

Carry some cash for markets and small cafés — cards are not taken everywhere.

day3

Museums, history and local food

A day for what needs time and attention: museums, historic quarters, and lunch somewhere locals actually go.

Many museums close on a Monday or Tuesday — check the opening hours before you set out.

day4

A day out of town

Get beyond the city: the nearby towns and countryside are usually what stays with you. A rental car is the practical way — public transport on these routes is slow and infrequent.

  • All day

    Chemin Grenier

    Chemin Grenier is 32 km from Airport Sir Seewoosagur Ramgoolam, about 49m by car. Leave in the morning so you're back before dark.

Book the car ahead: in season there is little left and the counter price is higher.

A tour, or a second trip out

A good day for a guided tour: a guide tells you what the signs don't, and takes the driving off your hands.

  • All day

    Saint Paul

    Saint Paul is 31 km from Airport Sir Seewoosagur Ramgoolam, about 32m by car. Leave in the morning so you're back before dark.

Book the car ahead: in season there is little left and the counter price is higher.

day7

Last day and departure

A calm finish: a favourite spot once more, some shopping, a late lunch. Leave yourself room before the airport.

Allow twice what the map says for the airport run — it is never the quiet hour when you need it.
