      Thoroughly interesting
      Excellent driver, who picked me up near my accomodation and kindly took me to a different accomodation at the end of the day. A really interesting variety of places, the garden is very relaxing and beautiful. I do recommend getting something at the tea factory, whilst it may seem expensive it is definitely worth it. Thoroughly recommend this.

      Pick up from the airport was excellent but the return was very upsetting
      Pick up upon our arrival went smoothly. The driver was on time and safe. The return, however, was a different story and not a way we wanted our lovely holiday to end. We requested a pick up that would have us at the airport two hours before our scheduled departure. We received word, after the driver was already 20 minutes late picking us up, that our driver would arrive momentarily, so we waited. And we waited, and we waited some more. Our hotel called the driver and was told he was in an accident and that a new driver would be arriving soon. This wasn't true as the original driver FINALLY showed up one hour and ten minutes late to take us to the airport. Again, our amazing hotel called the airlines and told them we were on our way. The airlines said they'd keep the desk open 15 minutes late for us (and they did). We literally JUST made our flight. It was an anxiety-filled, nerve-wracking and very upsetting one hour ride to the airport. The worst part is that there was no explanation from the driver or from John at Mauritius Booking as to why he was late and why they didn't inform us earlier, so that we could have used the hotel airport service or called a taxi. We paid in advance, but I would have paid another service for peace of mind. I don't like giving such a low rating, but the communication after this debacle was non-existent and frankly very, very disappointing.

      Great way to get a taste of Mauritius
      Picked up on time from our hotel, our driver was very informative throughout and was happy to answer our questions. We never felt rushed in any of our visits and he drove very safely throughout our trip. Although the weather was awful, he always ensured that an umbrella was available to try and keep us dry . Highly recommend this trip, saw some beautiful and good variety of places. ++ Mosquito Repellent is a must !

      Shuttle to Balaclava
      In general from a tardiness & pickup experience everything was like clock work & professional, our driver who collected us was from the airport when we landed was very oblivious that he had passengers with him as his was quite reckless when driving & speeding consistently. Would a use them again, yes, John runs a tight ship & he took onboard my concerns from experience when we were collected & was always communicating with me.

      Good communication and a great tour. The only issue was that a service provider to the tour company did not pitch up and we had to forgo part of the tour to the waterfall.

      Mauritius dolphins disappointment
      So disappointed with this trip which we thought was going to be the highlight of our holiday. Arrived on time with many other tourists and sat around for an hour while the crew faffed about. They spent half an hour loading the boats, why they didn't do this prior to the trip god only knows. The first part of the trip is dolphin watching. This consisted of around 25 -30 speedboats first looking for the dolphins, then using the boats to aggressively coral them. This was not nice to experience. Did catch a few glimpses of dolphins but very little really. Jumped in the sea to "swim" with them but you dont really see them, only shadows. Next stop Crystal island to snorkel. Pathetic, it's just a rock sticking out of the sea, maybe 3-4 metres wide. I swam around it twice and only saw approx 1 dozen fish, varieties which can be seen on most beaches in Mauritius. Finally Benitires Island, hated it. A small strip of sand which has dozens of long dining tables and logs to sit on.. Each table is for a particular charter boat. There is virtually nowhere to sunbathe, we found a spot but we were laying on tree roots most of the time which was uncomfortable to say the least. Pointless going in the water, there is nothing to see there and there are so many boats moored that there is little room. We spoke to 3 couples on our return and all said the same thing - rubbish. It is hard to understand why there are so many 5 star ratings, which makes me question if they are actual honest reviews or fabricated reviews.

      Best Shuttle service in Mauritius
      I use Tipik for all my airport runs. They are always on time, the cars are always clean and the service is always friendly. Extremely reliable!

      Kenty the skipper best
      Had a great day snorkling, sightseeing and what a great skipper on boat. The crayfish and chicken at lunch really tasteful. Boat clean and excellent condition. Day can get long. Well worth the money.

      Nice way to see lots of the north in one day!
      We had a very nice day touring around the north of Mauritius. Our driver Lindley was very informative and a safe driver, and he waits for you while you go to the different sights. The only dissapointment during the day was the lunch.. the place we were taken to have lunch was obviously a real tourist trap with average food for sky-high prices. A meal for 2 people + 1 drink each for 45 euros.

      Wonderful day in the North
      It was a very very nice day. We saw a lot! The driver (Hansley) was excellent, very friendly and try to show us the best places. He was very open, communicative and very supportive. We would like to recommend the tour with five stars.

      Nice trips in mauritius
      Our first experience with this company was an airport shuttle service to our first hotel in Mauritius. Lindley picked us up from the airport in the early morning. He was right on time, the car was very clean and he explained us all we wanted to know about the country. It was a really nice ride. After this good experience, we booked two other transfers and a full day private tour with Lindley. All trips were very nice, cause Lindley is a really nice driver. The communication with John was also really good. He even managed to organize a full day trip, we asked him just the night before. Also the price compared to other companies and taxi is really good. Next time we are in Mauritius we would definitely do our trips again with this company! Nice greetings, Andreas

      Airport transfert
      The driver, Lindley, was waiting for me with a sign on which there was my name on it. I was happily surprised when I found the car, the one that was described in my booking, spotless clean and equipped with a child chairas per my request. Lindley was so friendly and professional that i asked him to be my driver for the rest of my holidays. He knows very well all the roads and the shortcuts which made our trip to our resort very quick. On the way back from the resot to the airport, Lindley was on time and we reached the airport way before the scheduled time. Each time before our pick up, I always received a whatsapp from John confirming the details of my booking. I was very happy with their service. Many thanks for all.

      Excellent Service
      We used Tipik Tours during our stay in Mauritius. They were remarkable! John kept us in contacts contact through out our stay, whether it was 11pm or 6am. Was easy to book shuttles and its so convenient to communicate over whats app that it makes life so much less stressful when travelling. Booking a shuttle a day in advance was easy and payment was done without hassles. I would without a doubt recommend their services to anyone travelling. Safe, trustworthy and best shuttle service we have ever used.
