What To Expect
First of all, the driver will come for the hotel pick up and set off to visit the Red Roof Church at Cap Malheureux. One of the most renowned churches in Mauritius is the Notre Dame Auxiliatrice Chapel, a Roman Catholic Church famous for its vivid red roof against the bright turquoise sea and azure sky. The Notre Dame Auxiliatrice Church is famous for its lovely red roof, which attracts many curious passers-by and offers a picturesque background for worthy snapshots. This simple chapel was founded in 1938 and is dedicated to the Virgin Mary. It is situated ideally at the very northern point of Mauritius, offering breathtaking views of the five northern islets, including Coin de Mire (Gunner’s Quoin).

Head to the next section of the Central Market where all the street food stalls are found. You will have a wide variety of choices here for the street food and you will surely find something to your taste. We do recommend tasting the dhall puri, made with split chickpea and flour and the famous alouda, almost like a milkshake with basil seeds, grated jelly and sometimes a scoop of ice. If you wish to try some of the local snacks, you will find a large choice of samoussas (fritters filled with potatoes), bajas (fritters made with chickpea flour) or gato piment (fritters made with yellow split pea and chilli).
