Since there were no direct flights to Madagascar, we had to fly through Mauritius. Air Seychelles kept changing their flight schedule, which meant that we’d stay in Mauritius for 3 days between our flights. While we could have tried to change our connection, we decided to spend a few days in Mauritius to find out more on what it’s about.
Admittedly we only stayed in 2 areas during the 3 days, but we did feel that for once, the Lonely Planet was right, unless you’re staying in the expensive hotels, Mauritius is not the dream destination you expect. Not that it was bad (in the evenings things sure livened up and became very festive!!), we were probably just expecting it to be a little more exotic.
