DS adventures will not disappoint. We booked the 2 hour ride and experienced a great ride through the sugarcane fields to the coast. The scenery was spectacular especially the natural bridge. Our guides were great and happy to take photos of us. I also had their lunch and enjoyed it very much. Their pool was great after getting very dusty/dirty on the trails.
They have a shower too. Again this was a great day.

It was a great teamwork, in a beautiful area… for me it was a bit tiring because of the strong sunlight (even on this day it was lightly crowded). So I believe it is better to be prepared to stay at least 2 hours under the sun

The day was packed with adventure. We have an amazing quad bike ride through the outer parts of mauritius. The quad biking was amazing, and the guide was very informative. We then had a beautiful lunch and onto the second part, the boat trip. We went to Blue Bay and swam with the most amazing and colourful fish, snorkels were provided. Would definitely recommend this trip.

This was a brilliant experience and such a fun way to see some otherwise inaccessible beautiful sights!
We did the South Mauritius Day Trip: Quad and Sea.
A few tips if you book this outing:
- Bring a change of clothes, you will get very dirty!
- Bring eye protection. They suggest sunglasses, but goggles also work really well (especially if you're wearing contact lenses)
- Wear closed-toe shoes for the first section but also have suitable boat shoes for the Blue Bay excursion
- If you ride your quad through the river, lift up your feet! I was the only fool in our group to not notice we were supposed to do this and got very wet feet.
The day is split into two separate excursions: The first, and much longer, excursion is the quad-bikes outing. We (two teen boys and parents) each had our own quad and were the only people in the group. It was our first time on quads but the staff showed us how to use them and we always felt safe. It takes about three hours to visit the sites, with loads of time on the quads - mainly riding through fields of sugarcane - and relaxing visits at the stopping points. IT's up to you how long to stay at each stopping point.
The three places we stopped were all amazing and completely different to each other. A natural bridge surrounded by rocky cliffs and massive breaking waves, then the palm forest where we saw 300 year old palm trees, big bats and beautiful birds and finally a picture-perfect, bright blue beach for a relaxing dip. Not part of the planned outing, but we also saw some cows on a beach!
You then return to DS Adventures for lunch and (if you've brought spare clothes) a wash and freshen up before the Blue Bay outing. The glass-bottom boat outing departs from a separate location so DS Adventures staff will drive there with you following in your own car. The boat trip appears to be operated by a separate company - we were the only people on the boat from DS Adventures and there were about half a dozen other people. The actual boating/snorkelling portion took about half an hour/45 minutes. The glass bottom was very effective and we saw impressive coral and hundreds of fish.
Suggestions for improvement:
- Better communication in advance regarding what we need to bring (closed toe shoes, change of clothes, eye-protection, etc).
- More instructions when out on the quads: we liked our guide and he did a great job, but it would have been helpful to have some more explicit group instructions. For example, there were times we had to cross (safe) roads. Our guide ushered us across but it wasn't clear to our teen boys (who were in the front of the convoy) whether to carry on or wait for him to catch up. Being excitable teens, they carried on but it wasn't clear if this was correct. Also, explicit instructions about lifting feet at the river would have been helpful (though it did seem obvious to everyone except me...)
In summary, a fun and exhilarating day out, very highly recommended!

We loved this trip!
Our guides couldn’t do more for us; we enjoyed the amazing scenery of the beaches, volcanic bridge and rain forest; whilst having fun riding the quad bikes.
Blue Bay is stunning and an excellent way to end a fabulous day.
Our two teenage boys loved it, as did we!

Great experience from beginning to finish. We have had lovely run on quad bikes to Pont Naturel where many pics was taken then another run to the beach (name forgotten sorry 🫣) had a quick bath and then back to the base. Somewhere in the jungle we stopped for while too. Whole group of 6 plus 2 instructors who kept an eye on us all the time so totally safe for anytime with no experience needed. We were given lovely tasty lunch had a quick swim in their pool and left to the blue bay where we had a boat waiting for snorkelling. Nothing was really needed as they provide all equipment. Just make super you take camera and old clothes as quad bike runs will get dirty haha. Loved whole day and my missus absolutely loved this day too. Thanks.
