Here are 5 top tips for hiring a car in Mauritius:
Book in Advance Car hire demand in Mauritius is high, especially during peak holiday seasons. Booking early secures better rates and ensures you get the vehicle type you want.
Check Driving Rules Driving is on the left-hand side of the road (like the UK). Roads can be narrow and winding, so a compact car may be more practical unless you need extra space.
Inspect Before You Drive Take photos or a short video of the car during pick-up, including any scratches or dents. This avoids disputes about damage when you return it.
Watch Out for Local Traffic Quirks Mauritian drivers can be unpredictable, and roundabouts work differently than in Europe. Drive cautiously, especially in towns and villages where pedestrians, scooters, and buses share the road.
Know Where to Fuel Up Petrol stations aren’t as frequent in rural areas or on the coastal roads. Fill up before long drives, and note that many stations don’t accept cards—carry some cash just in case.
