Great guided hike with Gilles - amazing views and wildlife! - It was very well organised, we met our guide Gilles as planned on time and with no delays we started the hike. It was very much as advertised, a nice hike with some great views and interesting wildlife. A nice dip in a beautiful pool topped it off. Gilles was very knowledgeable and helpful and gave us lots of insight into the flora and fauna of the area.

Morning walk in black river gorge - Fabulous morning walking the Black River Gorge with Rowin. Not too challenging if you are used to a decent walk with some incline. Our guide Rowin was very knowledgeable about the flora and fauna along the way and made sure that everyone in the group was managing well.

Rando black rocks - Very nice hike, in the middle of the forest and a beautiful viewpoint, after a climb of about 200 m, almost private, we were two, with a guide at the top, Henri, very pro, listening, who adapted the pace of the hike to our physical abilities. Trees and birds and the history of the country, are his great strengths, do not hesitate to ask him all useful advice! I recommend without hesitation!

Amazing Black River Walk! - Last Thursday, we had the chance to be accompanied by Henri Julien for a 6km walk into the Gorges Of the Black River. The walk was extremely Nice, and we learnt a lot from our local guide. Moreover, he also informed me about a « Ring Trail » on Nov. 30th in which I participated! That was amazing, I really enjoyed it.

Change of scenery assured; good for sight, hearing and shape. - Our last excursion with Yanature was a little wonder again. we were greeted by Matthew just as warm and welcoming as Jeremy was on the previous excursion (Wild South) small group of 4, plus our guide! Beautiful forest; were able to observe bats (Roussettes), meet a family of macaques, saw a very curious pink pigeon, a cardinal from Madagascar; soak your feet in the water of Black River and learn many beautiful things again thanks to the enlightened comments of Mathieu. Like Jeremy and Yudish before, he transmits his love of country to visitors! Top! We already know what our next excursions will be and hope that our steps will take us back to Mauritius and Yanature!!! Ps good walking shoes recommended.

Black River, Pilgrim and La Grotte trails. - A lovely morning walk with the cheerful and knowledgeable Jeremie and Regine. The trails were slippery in places after overnight rain so good footwear was needed. The views from Plateau Resmousse were good. The walk back was punctuated by a refreshing wild swim in the Black River. Saw Pink Pigeon, Echo Parakeets, flying foxes, macaque and more.

Friendly hike with Henri - A beautiful 3 hour walk with Henri, a particularly friendly guide, who knew how to keep us in suspense all the hike. Even if we thought we were seeing more wildlife.

Unique experience with challenge - Those who want to experience nature are absolutely right on this tour. The experience is unique, but it is imperative to note that it is very strenuous. Our two guides Regine and Rowin were excellent and left us all the time in the world. The two are super nice and motivated us and told us a lot of interesting facts about nature.
