About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- Helen B0 contributionsGreat day with excellent guide/driverRuben was an excellent driver and guide. Very patient with our mobility issues and ensured that we had the best experience possible.Written November 20, 2024
- 476skym0 contributions4th generation islander, 2nd generation taxi driver. 100% safety, 0% stress 200% fun.Chucky is a 4th generation islander, and a 2nd generation taxi driver. Hands down the best taxi experience I’ve had anywhere. Over this week I’ve learned about the beautiful mentality of the Mauritian people, and Chucky is the absolute embodiment of this. He drove us from our hotel to the hiking trial head very safely and securely, and kept us entertained on the way. All for a more than honest price. I could not recommend this taxi enough in 10 reviews. Look no further than here.Written October 31, 2024
- suelevett0 contributionsChucky Taxi Mauritius- travelling with x4 adults.Chucky Taxi Mauritius. I contacted Chucky via Watsap following so many positive reviews. Communication was superb. He arranged taxis to and from the airport for us, much cheaper than the hotel offered. We also went on a South Island tour and Ruben was our outstanding guide. We had an excellent and fun day I would highly recommend. Lastly, we arranged for day hire to take us to the West Coast for a boat trip and return back to our hotel. Overall Chuckys service is professional, prompt, courteous and so much cheaper than I found elsewhere And his prompt communication throughout via Watsap was very reassuring. I would not hesitate to recommend this professional team.Written September 11, 2024
- Tour041188739630 contributionsGreat trip!Great day out to visit the South of the island! Got to see all the places we wanted with plenty of time at each stop. Our driver Adesh was really knowledgeable, friendly and all around great guide!Written August 27, 2024
- sreedharan20190 contributionsVery goodKevin was very friendly and helpful. He guided us to different places and helped to visit them. Thank you so much. Much appreciated.Written July 30, 2024
- Trail137682369370 contributionsTour is not as shown on the ItineraryWe did the North Taxi trip and also the South. The South was more of a disappointment. We did not go to all these places listed on the itenarary. We did go to La Vallee des Couleurs which is quite average and expensive. We went to some ship factory which was ok and then some small shop that had Rum and Cashmere for sale and the Shop people were really pushy trying to get us to buy things. We went to Alexander Waterfall which was nice but again that was not as per listed Itinerary (which says its Chamarel Waterfalls). We did not go to the Rhumerie de Chamarel either, so I feel like this isn't quite how its advertised. The photos you see here as well are literally from La Vallees de Couleurs. They have Zip lines and Quad bikes (just on a normal walking path is where you quad bike). The cost was approximately $650 Australian dollars for the 2 of us, and we managed to avoid that cost as you can actually enter the park and walk around it (it's about a 1 - 1.5 hour round trip so it's not even huge). I wouldn't recommend the South island Taxi tour, you are better off just hiring a car and doing your own trip (it's really easy to get around in Mauritius if you have a car).Written July 11, 2024
- 495keanuv0 contributionsChucky the great tour guideWe booked a South tour and Chucky was our driver. A really kind and knowledgeable man. He made sure we were comfortable throughout our day with him. He even called a friend and got us a better deal for a dolphins and snorkeling trip. After how well he looked after us, we then booked him or the airport trip back. If you want any tour done in comfort and professionalism, book direct with Chucky. Better price and well looked after.Written June 9, 2024
- Pauline W0 contributionsIf you need a bespoke tour book this guy !Brilliant day out with Chucky ! He was engaging, knowledgeable and fun to be with. We were able to create our own itinerary and take things at our own pace, and he recommended a super lunch place along the way. Don’t hesitate to book Chucky - highly recommended (and a great driver! ).Written May 14, 2024

- elenavalbo0 contributionsA great day and smooth driveEverything was smooth and Chucky is a great driver. Buy tickets for entrance and activities online to avoid the queue and plan at minimum 5 hours in the park if you booked special activities with the big cats.Written February 20, 2024

He’s a local’s local - knows all the best roads and places to stop. An excellent driver and superb tour guide - he tailor made the agenda for us and made it a fun and memorable day, with lots of insights on local culture along with some amazing sights. If only we had more time in Mauritius we would do the North tour as well. Thank you Chucky - that was awesome fun!!Written December 20, 2023
- southindia0 contributionsA perfect day in the south of Mauritiusperfect driver/guide showed us all the beauties of nature gave us more than enough time at each spotWritten December 15, 2023
- sonalm3590 contributionsBest Tour and visit!!!!From the first encounter to the end of Journey Chucky was the most pleasant and professional guide and driver. He went above and beyond to show us around and help with anything we needed. His knowledge of the island is fantastic p there is a variety of places he can take you to explore. But this tour was most definitely worth it and foe the price it's a no brainer. The rum tasting wax fantastic. The 23 coloured earth is like no other place you will ever see or experience definitely a must to go and see and enjoy. There was plenty of activities like zip lining, quad biking, seeing waterfalls and acres of a beautiful forest. Would do this tour all over againWritten October 27, 2023
- MarcusW604820 contributionsPersonalized tour with an exceptional guide made for an unforgettable dayMy wife and I recently explored Mauritius' south with Chucky's Taxi, and we absolutely loved it! Chucky was warm and accommodating from the get-go, and his immaculate and comfortable taxi made our journey even more enjoyable. Not all roads in Mauritius are suited for the faint hearted of drivers, but thanks to our skillful driver, we felt in expert hands throughout the day. We had our own rental car, but opted to give ourselves a break and chose this personal tour as a stress-free alternative with a knowledgeable local as our guide—and we didn't regret it. The itinerary featured all the must-see sites but left enough room to make adjustments to suit our interests. We'd choose Chucky again in a heartbeat!Written October 26, 2023

We enjoyed all the sights on our taxi trip around the north / north west coast, seeing just about everything we had expected to see. However, our 'experienced' guide appeared somewhat lethargic upon his arrival at 9am and continued that way throughout the day. He did take us to the local market in Port Louis for a local snack and a drink, which we really enjoyed, but, aside from that, gave us little, if any, information about the places we visited. In particular, the Palace, which he didn't seem to know anything about at all. The tour also gave the impression that we would be stopping at 3 beach areas, including Grand Bay, but we were told that it was always impossible to stop due to the lack of parking, so perhaps this shouldn't be classed as a 'stop' in the itinerary. We stopped at one beachy area, ie where the red-roofed church was located, but that was all. Further, on the way to the Palace, we were told that it was just 'a building' and were given the impression that the driver was trying to encourage us NOT to make a stop there. Hence, we only went into the grounds, and not the interior of the palace, because our driver seemed impatient about the time. Sadly, our experience of this tour was not as upbeat or informative as we'd expected, but we did get a brief (6.5 hrs) overview of the region.

Hello sir, the driver did bring you on the grand baie spot, We always stop, why would we bring you there if we don't want to stop ? 🧏🏻♂️ but it was very hectic that day and we cannot stop on the middle of the road. 🤧 concerning, the chateau de labourdournais rhumerie (palace) which is a colonial house, you have to pay the entrance and guide inside, we cannot come with you inside, seems logic ? i have checked your other reviews, you never seem to be happy. 🤣 But i know my driver always give their best. 🙏🏻 Take care sir.

We had a great trip around the North of the island last week. Our driver was punctual and friendly throughout the day, telling us about the various places we stopped at or passed on the way. We had time to explore each of the stops on our own, the main ones being Port Louis, the botanical gardens and the sugar factory. All the stops felt like they had enough time other than the sugar factory - around an hour here didn't feel like enough to be able to take everything in and do the tastings.

I really had a great time in Mauritius thanks to the exceptional service I received. He was very punctual and ensured even tho I was on a solo trip all nice memories were well captured in pictures. I had very tight timelines and places I needed to visit and he ensured we visited all these places. I really enjoyed my time and would highly recommend his services. Very friendly and professional.

It was a varied day where we really saw a lot. Adesh, our driver was on time and did according to our wishes. Overall, the tour is really great for exploring the north. Definitely recommended is to take a guide in the botanical garden who will explain everything to you (we paid 75 rupees per person for the guide).

We really enjoyed this tour with our guide Rouben. He was full of knowledge and kept even the drive enjoyable. He came into the local market with us to make sure the sellers didn't rip us off and he had great knowledge about all the surroundings.
Overall it was a great day out.

Terrific organization of our taxi and guide.
Always ready to please you, you can visit the North of the island at your own pace, no watches to watch... just a small time range. You don't feel rushed to finish your visit.
All the highlights of the island come together in this personalized excursion.
Chucky taxi will pick you up from your hotel.
As far as we are concerned: Lux Grand Gaube.
I was so enchanted that I booked a tour of the South.
Spacious and comfortable vehicle.
Many thanks for this beautiful excursion which is a first visit to Mauritius.
Reserve with your eyes closed.

Neil was a fantastic driver. He was on time, very polite, and was a very informative guide. He took us to some amazing places in the North of the island within the short time we had. This tour was a 10/10 and we wished we had done more tours of the island with Neil.

This tour was fantastic. We had Chucky organize our tour, and Rishik was our driver/guide. He took us to all these amazing places on the North side of the island. We went to Fort Adelaide, Port Louis, the Botanic Gardens etc. RISHIK was amazing as well at telling us more about Mauritius and the history. We really loved this tour and it was a LOT better than the South Taxi tour. Chucky was great at communicating and what he said, happened. Really rate this, and it was a great way to see parts of Mauritius outside the resort.

From getting off cruise ship. Asleem our taxi driver was waiting ready with our name on it. He was polite and friendly and quickly showed up around all north attractions. Answered any questions we had and even had a joke to the story. He took us to a nice seafood restaurant for lunch after visiting botanical gardens. Local beaches and red Catholic Church were our last stop before making our way back to cruise ship in plenty off time. Would thoroughly recommend chucky and Asleem if doing a day tour from cruise ship. Thanks.
