SAYING GOODBYE TO MAURITIUS (Best Things To Do Around Mahebourg) - Mauritius Road Trip Ep. 9
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 10 июл 2024
- It’s our last day on Mauritius and we’re sad to leave! In this video we make the most of our last day and explore the best things to do around Mahebourg. Mahebourg is a town on the east coast of Mauritius, which is the least visited side of the island. Before driving to Mahebourg we spent some time in a resort in Quatre Cocos, as you can find some good deals in this area. We then check in to our guesthouse in Mahebourg, try manioc biscuits that are famous on Mauritius, head to a restaurant that is supposed to serve the best Biryani on Mauritius (it is delicious) and then drive to Blue Bay for a great spontaneous snorkelling trip. This was the perfect way to end our Mauritius road trip and we hope you enjoyed coming along!

This video is part of a multi-part series of our ultimate ROAD TRIP THROUGH MAURITIUS! Mauritius is a popular honeymoon and beach holiday destination but it has so much more to offer than beautiful beaches (although there are many of them as well). We’re really excited to get to know this African island country and its culture and cuisine. On our road trip we’ll spend three weeks driving from the South up the West coast, then further into the North and finally down the East coast. Our goal is to get to know Mauritius from all sides, as well as check out its beautiful beaches and nature.

Thank you for watching - we hope you enjoyed our Mauritius road trip videos! ☺ If you'd like to stay up to date with what we're up to back home and our next trips - be sure to subscribe! We'll see you in the next one!
Thank you for these amazing videos of my country! Big up and respect from Mauritius ✌
Thanks Zoe and Simon for loving our island and sharing, amazing videos as usual, most welcomed next time 😄
Thanks for watching! 😊
A local mauritian here. Appreciate your video it's great seeing people from different countries enjoying the local culture. Just a slight note the best Biryani is in Port louis. It's a well known fact among locals too.
I just watched these 9 roadtrip videos. You two did a really nice job documenting it! It does make me hungry though :P I never knew Mauritius was such a nice place, that's definitely food for thought.
Thank you very much, we're glad to hear you enjoyed our videos 😊 We also didn't know much about Mauritius before visiting, but we quickly fell in love with it. Its size makes it perfect to explore by car, which was a lot of fun 🙂
Ihr Lieben, stabile Videoreihe über Mauritius und Kompliment für euer Englisch. Mir hat besonders gut gefallen dass man an Zoe’s Gesichtsausdruck gut erkennen konnte, ob etwas Schrott oder gut war und hier kein Awesome-Einheitsbrei über jedes kulinarische Experiment gemacht wurde. LG aus München
Vielen Dank, das freut uns sehr zu hören! 😊
Mahebourg is well said by Simon on his 2nd pronunciation. Happy that you enjoyed my island. Much love
Good to know, thank you! We had a great time andwe'll definitely be back! 😊
It is actually wrong. Bear with me. He is a German speaker so he is pronouncing it the way he will prounounce it in German; "Mahburg". Mahebourg ( Named after Mahe de Labourdonnais) is prnounced wrongly in Creole contrary to how it would be pronounced in French. So the local way of pronoucing it would be ,making reference to German vocals, would be "Mai" (like the month may) and making reference to english would be like pronouncing "booh" the h being silent. So it "Mai (DE)-Booh(EN)". Ich hoffe es hilfe. Kreolisch ist manchmal nicht so einfach !
Hey Zoe and Simon, I don’t typically comment on videos, but this is definitely one of those pleasant exceptions. I’ve been binging your Mauritius Road Trip series and I must say that the editing and content itself are top notch. I’m Mauritian born myself but relocated to Melbourne, Australia with my parents when I was a child. I’ve been back several times but not recently whatsoever and your videos are definitely making me miss my home country. I just need to finish my medical degree then I’m back off in instant (I probably shouldn’t be watching your videos since I have an exam tomorrow 😂). I hope you enjoyed your time in Mauritius and continue to enjoy your worldwide journey, stay safe!
Thank you very much - comments like yours make our day 😊 We're glad you enjoyed our Mauritius videos and good luck with your medical degree! 😋
All in all I just love the couple u are
I just finished binge watching your whole Mauritius trip and it was AMAZING! I loved itttt❤
Thank you so much, we're glad to hear that! 😊
I had to pause and make this comment
I live in England and seeing you guys go to pyramid has made me happy because it’s owned by our cousin and reminded me of the main person behind this briyani recipe who is not with us today! It’s good to see his hard work still paying off!!
❤❤❤
Mauritius is missing you
We miss Mauritius! 😊🇲🇺
Hi Zoe & Simon, I just discovered your channel a few days ago and binge watched your series on Mauritius where I was born. I now live in London. I have thoroughly enjoyed watching your independent tour of the island and the research you have put in to understand the history and cultures of Mauritius and the way you have taken to the local street food. Your filming and editing skills, combined with your calm and clear narrative and gentle bantering between you two make it a joy to watch your videos. It's a shame that I did not come across your videos before my trip to Mauritius in February because I have picked up a few tips on eating places which I will check out next year, especially that biryani in Mahebourg! Full marks on your pronunciations of the place names, which made me curious about your backgrounds given neither of you has a particularly German accent. Now I know about Simon being half English from a previous comment, but that usually does not help with the impeccable French accent, so my conclusion is that you probably speak French too! I'm looking forward to watching your series on Italy which I visit a lot, followed by Asia, Australia, Germany.... Keep up with the good work educating us about food, culture and other things around the world! Wishing you both all the best with your future travels ❤
Thank you for your nice comment and the kind words! We're happy to hear you enjoyed our videos 🙂 And it's good to know we didn't completely butcher our pronounciation! 😁 We learned some French in school, but unfortunately we can't speak it anymore. All the best!
@@ZoeandSimon ❤
Thank you for sharing your wonderful trip with us, stay safe and looking forward to your next adventure 👍
It was a great series!. Glad that you both had a lovely time. Keep those memories alive ,when you enter the bitter chill of German winter! Funny thing is that you are both very chill people.
Haha thank you very much! We're glad you're enjoying our videos! 😊
Thank you for the beautiful videos.
Glad you like them! 😊
Beautiful beach. Have fun guys!
Thank you! 😊
Next time come and visit the center and the heart of the island . There are a lot of thing you still need to see .
Hi Zoe & Simon, Wishing you Bon Voyage, hope goes well for you. Your videos are a great advertisement for Mauritius. Thank you for your visit. God Bless....
Thank you, glad you enjoyed our videos! 😊
Thanks for covering Mauritius! Another great video! Just came back from 30 days in Thailand and yeah, it's cold! Atleast in Sweden. Guess Germany have the same weather. Can't wait to see where you go next. :)
Thank you! ☺ Uh, nice that you could spend some time away from the cold winter, hope you had a great time! At least it's now slowly getting warmer again and summer is around the corner 🙂
Brilliant adventure Z&S. Glad you made the most out of the island. And I know that feeling of coming close to the end of sunny vacation days 😊 Fun fact, 5 years ago, I was hosting 6 German friends and we all went for lunch at the exact same spot where you had the Biryani before leaving for cold Europe ; they were heading back home and I was going for my Erasmus 😅I didn't have the opportunity to visit ever since. However the odds seem pretty high this year 😇 we will see how it goes. Hit me up if you ever visit Paris! (or Mauritius again) - I'll be glad to meet up for a beer.
LG, Dylan
Hi Dylan, glad you enjoyed the videos! 😊 Hope you can return to Mauritius soon - we'd also love to visit again. Paris is beautiful too though! 🙂
Finally 🎆🎆Your my "The best friend",Congratulations 🎆🎆 I will give Gifts 👏👏

Hello From East Coast🥰😘

Hi guys I'm planning to visit Mauritius with my wife at the end of November begin December but I'm worried about the beaches are they really like the beaches in tropical destinations with perfect underwater sight? And if so what are the best beaches according to you? Did you book your guesthouses beforehand or after arriving there? Last question how is to drive on the left side of the road for someone who never drove on the wrong side?
Thanks for covering Mauritius. Could you please provide tips on CAR RENTAL , if possible....
Hi there, we booked our car via a German rental car comparison site. We like these sites because they compare all offers and also take care of extra insurance. The rental company that we ended up going with is called "First Car" rental and everything went smoothly. We paid 48€/day incl. comprehensive insurance.
@@ZoeandSimon Thank you very much for your reply
✌️👌👍💥
👍👍👍🌅🏖️🌊😎😍
Hello From East Coast😘
Hi! 🤗
@@ZoeandSimon
I am disappointed that you guys didn't try the beef meat briyani ❤the beef one is the best
Ah, we didn't know about that one, but ours was also great! 😋
Hey guys. I am pretty new to the channel. I was wondering where are you from? You mentioned Germany, but I doubt it. Your accent sounds Australian to me😀Keep up with the great work. Cheers.
Hi there and thank you! 😊 We're both German, but Simon is also half British, so that's probably why there's a strange mix of accents going on 😁
@@ZoeandSimon Wow. I get it for Simon now. But for you to be born German, living there as well, and to have that clean English, damn you got my respect. Thanks for answering my question😇
Well thank you very much! 😊
Thanks for the great videos. I just subscribed. I worked for Lufthansa in India so planning a trip to Maurice! Hope you had a great trip back home. I visit FRA and MUC frequently.
Sorry didn’t realise that I was barging into a conversation. 😊
Awesome trip. I have been watching your videos and making notes. We are planning to go in early September for 8 days. I am tossing on where to stay. Bel ombre seem to have nice accommodation and reasonable price. I have booked at Tamassa and we are hiring car so we can do daily trips. Been around island where do you think is nice place to stay overall. I keep changing my mind :)
Hi there, glad our videos were helpful! 🙂 Choosing where to stay is a tough decision, but it's good that you've got the rental car to check out different places during the day. Of course it all depends on what you're looking for and if you're travelling alone, as a couple or family. In the end you can have a great time anywhere, especially if you found accommodation that you like. For a mainly beach focused vacation we really enjoyed Trou-aux-Biches on the west coast, as the beach was great, the vibe relaxed and the sunsets amazing. But if we were staying a bit longer and wanted a good mix of everything then the south of Mauritius is great too! We stayed in the area around Le Morne, which is really pretty and overall the south is just less touristy. You can also easily reach some great hiking areas if you're interested in that. We didn't visit Bel Ombre however, so we can't say anything about it. For an overview of all the accommodations we stayed in we also wrote an overview of our trip on our website www.zoeandsimon.io (under itineraries). Hope that helps and that you have a great trip! 😊
@Zoe and Simon thank you so much for detailed reply. I will have closer look.
Hi Simon and zoe can you please come back to mauritius 🇲🇺 I am a subscriber I want to meet you
wow zoe is sopretty
Was it easy to get around with your bank card?? Or is it heavy on the cash
We did use a lot of cash, which we got directly from an ATM using our debit cards. That also went quite smoothly most of the time.
Mahebourg 😂
,is simple u can pronounce it in English or french
This place is amazing. I was here a couple weeks ago in Mahebourg. Have a look at my channel if you got a sec thanks 😊
Such a good place! 😊
Great videos from Mauritius! Do you need a credit card to hire a car or a debit would be more than ok? Enjoy! 🏖️🦀🩴🐚
Thank you! 🙂Many car rental companies require a credit card, but it varies from company to company. Some also take debit cards, but only if you pay a surcharge. So we would contact the company directly just to make sure!
