The Mascarene  archipelago, located not far from Madagascar, is comprised of three islands: Réunion, Mauritius, and Rodrigues.

Each of them boasts unique colors, scents, cultures, and architectures, although subtly similar.

In our opinion, the best way to fully experience the Mascarenes is to visit all three islands, if possible, in order to gain a comprehensive understanding.

Mauritius "L'île paradis"

 Mauritius, nicknamed "Paradise Island" by the French, is globally renowned for its idyllic beaches of fine sand and turquoise waters, as well as its luxurious hotels and villas offering upscale services scattered throughout the island and internationally recognized.

 

The country boasts numerous islets accessible by boat, providing a myriad of excursion possibilities. Beyond its picturesque beaches, Mauritian nature reveals an often overlooked internal richness, both in its lands and in its dynamic cities. As one of Africa's most dynamic countries, Mauritius offers a unique experience where luxury, culture, and nature blend harmoniously.

Nicknamed "the intense island," Reunion  is a French gem in  the Indian Ocean.

This nickname originates from the exceptional diversity of landscapes and activities it offers, ensuring a stay where each day unfolds into a new adventure.
