Mauritius → Port Louis: key facts

A private transfer from Mauritius Airport (MRU) to Port Louis costs €50 per car for 1–3 passengers and €70 per van for 4–8. It is a fixed price for the whole vehicle, the same amount you pay when you book. The road distance is 47 km via M1; the drive takes about 40 min with clear roads, so plan on 40–55 min at busy times.

Where the driver waits: The driver waits in the arrivals hall on Level 0 of the passenger terminal, after passport control, baggage reclaim and customs, holding a sign with your name. We track your flight and the first 60 minutes after landing are free; the driver helps with your luggage.

Port Louis, the capital of Mauritius, lies on the north-west coast, about 47 km from the airport at Plaine Magnien in the south-east. Almost the whole drive follows the M1 motorway, which crosses the central plateau past Rose Belle, Nouvelle France and the edge of Curepipe and Quatre Bornes before descending towards the harbour. There are no road tolls on the island. Traffic on the M1 is heaviest on weekday mornings towards Port Louis and in the late afternoon in the opposite direction, when the approach to the city often slows to walking pace.

The city centre is compact and sits between the harbour and the Moka mountains, with Le Pouce and Signal Mountain behind it. The Caudan Waterfront, with shops, restaurants and hotels, faces Place d'Armes across the motorway, and the Aapravasi Ghat UNESCO site, the Central Market and Chinatown are a few minutes on foot from there. Fort Adelaide (the Citadel) overlooks the centre from a hill to the east. The Christian Decotter cruise terminal is at Les Salines, at the western end of the waterfront.

Public transport instead: Public bus (route listed by Airports of Mauritius) 198 from SSR International Airport (bus stop in the car park) to Port Louis Victoria Square Bus Station — about 1h 25min, every 15 min, daily.
