Trips to the Pamplemousses Botanical Garden

Can you imagine sitting at the edge of a pond with water lilies so large that you feel like sitting on them? This is just one of the wonders that this botanical kingdom holds for you, the oldest in the entire Southern Hemisphere! Some of the specimens in the park have been there since its founding almost 300 years ago, during the French colonial era. Sounds amazing, doesn't it?

Located just 11 kilometers from Port Louis, the capital of Mauritius, your visit to the Pamplemousses Botanical Garden is an almost mandatory stop. There you will not only find flowers and plants from different places, but also exotic animals like giant tortoises, Java deer, or flying foxes. Because, to be honest, the flowers and plants you can see in the park are amazing, but the fauna is equally impressive. Relax like never before next to a pond of lotus flowers or lose yourself inside a forest of golden bamboo!
