Airport Transfers Mauritius

Start your Mauritius holiday the easy way

Stepping out of the plane in Mauritius should feel like the start of a holiday, not the start of a negotiation at the taxi stand. That’s exactly why we created Taxi Service Mauritius.

We’re a locally run, fully licensed airport transfer company that has been driving visitors and Mauritians since 1977. Today, our team handles thousands of airport pickups and drop‑offs every year – from honeymooners with one suitcase to big family groups and golf teams with tons of luggage.

When you pre‑book your transfer with us, you know exactly who will meet you, where they’ll be waiting, and what you’ll pay. No last‑minute surprises. Just a friendly local driver, a comfortable vehicle and a smooth ride to your hotel, villa or Airbnb anywhere on the island.

Why book your airport transfer with Taxi Service Mauritius?

1. Land, walk out, and find your name on a sign

After a long flight, the last thing you want is to queue at the taxi rank or wonder if your hotel shuttle will show up.

When you book with us:

• We track your flight in real time.
• Your driver waits for you in the arrivals lounge with a name board.
• You get up to 2 hours of free waiting time if immigration or baggage claim is slow.
• If your flight is delayed, rescheduled or arrives earlier, we adjust – you don’t pay extra for delays.

You simply collect your bags, walk out, and we take it from there.

2. Save time on arrival and departure

Time is precious on holiday. Every minute spent haggling over fares or looking for a taxi is a minute you could be in the pool or on the beach.

With a pre‑booked transfer:

• No queuing at the airport taxi stand
• No stopping to pick up other passengers – your transfer is 100% private
• Direct, door‑to‑door service to your hotel, villa, guesthouse or cruise terminal
• For departures, we help you choose a sensible pick‑up time (we usually recommend 3.5 hours before your flight because of peak‑hour traffic)

Many of our guests combine their departure transfer with a short sightseeing stop – for example a few hours in the South or at the Bagatelle mall – so they don’t waste the last day sitting in a hotel lobby.

3. Safer, more comfortable rides with experienced local drivers

Your safety and comfort are non‑negotiable for us.

• All vehicles are fully licensed and insured public service vehicles
• Regular maintenance and checks – from tyres and brakes to air‑conditioning
• Professional, vetted drivers with clean records (no court issues)
• Most drivers speak English and French, plus local languages like Creole and Hindi
• Free baby/child seat on request (first seat is free; extra seats available at a small fee)

Whether you choose a standard car, a family minivan, an executive minivan or a luxury SUV, you’ll have enough space for your luggage and a cool, comfortable ride – ideal if you’re travelling with small children or after a long overnight flight.

4. Clear, competitive prices – often 30–45% cheaper than walk‑up taxis

Taxi fares at the airport and in hotels in Mauritius are not regulated and can vary a lot. Guests regularly tell us they’ve been quoted 30–50% more at the airport counter than what they paid with us.

With Taxi Service Mauritius:

• Prices are per vehicle, not per person
• The fare is confirmed when you book – no hidden fees, parking charges or luggage fees
• You can pay online in EUR before your trip, or pay cash to the driver in MUR / EUR / USD / GBP
• Late‑night arrivals (between 23:00 and 04:00) are clearly indicated in advance if a small surcharge applies

Look for our “Deal of the Month” – if you book a two‑way transfer (arrival + departure), you can usually save on your return trip and sometimes get extra discounts on sightseeing tours as well.

5. The right vehicle for your group – from solo travelers to big families

Every trip is different, and so is every group. That’s why we offer several vehicle types:

• Standard Car (1–3 passengers) – ideal for couples or small families with up to 3 medium‑sized suitcases
• Family Minivan (4–6 passengers) – extra space for golf bags, strollers or surfboards
• Standard & Executive Minivans (7–10 passengers) – perfect for bigger family or friends groups
• Coasters / Buses (11–18 passengers) – convenient for wedding parties, incentives or group travel
• SUVs & Luxury Cars (1–4 passengers) – for added comfort, privacy or special occasions

Tell us in advance if you’re travelling with surfboards, kite‑surf equipment, golf bags or oversized luggage, and we’ll suggest the right vehicle so you’re not cramped during the ride.

6. Simple, flexible booking – with real humans behind the screen

You can book directly on our website in a few quick steps. If you prefer a more personal touch or have special requests, our team is just a message away.

• Instant email confirmation with all your transfer details
• Driver’s name, photo and contact number sent to you the day before your trip
• Easy changes and cancellations – we offer free cancellation up to 12 hours before your transfer
• Fast replies via WhatsApp, email or phone for last‑minute questions

If you land early, travel with elderly parents, have young kids or need several pick‑ups on the way, simply let us know. We plan every transfer in advance rather than just sending “whoever is free” near the airport.

7. Trusted by travelers since 1987

We’ve been on the roads of Mauritius for decades and we’re proud of the reputation we’ve built. A big part of our new guests now come from word‑of‑mouth and online reviews.

Travelers often mention:

• Punctuality – drivers arrive on time, both for arrivals and departures
• Clean, well‑kept vehicles (including new electric cars on some routes)
• Honest service – several guests have shared stories of forgotten bags, passports and tablets that our drivers returned
• Friendly, helpful drivers who also act as informal guides with tips about what to see, where to eat and how to experience the “real” Mauritius

You can read recent reviews on platforms like TripAdvisor, Trustpilot and Google to see what past guests are saying about us.

Who our Mauritius airport transfers are ideal for

• Couples and honeymooners who want a calm, stress‑free start to their stay
• Families with children who need space, a child seat and a patient driver
• Business travelers who value punctuality and clear receipts
• Groups and wedding parties where logistics and timing really matter
• Cruise passengers needing transfers between the airport and Port‑Louis cruise terminal

Whether it’s your first time in Mauritius or you know the island well, having a reliable driver waiting for you makes a huge difference after a long flight.

What’s included in every airport transfer

Every booking with Taxi Service Mauritius includes:

• Private, door‑to‑door airport transfer (no sharing with other groups)
• Meet & Greet service in the arrivals lounge with a name board
• Chilled refreshments on arrival (subject to availability)
• Free waiting time (up to 2 hours) if your flight or baggage is delayed
• Free first child seat on request
• All parking and toll fees
• Flight monitoring and 24/7 support line for emergencies

You just choose your vehicle, confirm your dates and times, and we take care of everything else.

A few tips from locals for smooth transfers

Drawing from decades of experience on Mauritian roads, here are a few practical suggestions:

• Plan your departure pick‑up at least 3.5 hours before your flight time, especially for early‑morning and late‑afternoon flights when traffic is heavy.
• If you’re staying near the airport (Mahebourg, Blue Bay, Pointe d’Esny), ask us about our cheaper Zone 2 prices – transfers in that area are shorter and often cost less.
• Share your hotel name, villa address or Google Maps pin when you book. Many villas and new guesthouses don’t have clear signage.
• Let us know if you’re planning to travel with sports equipment like surfboards, kites, diving gear or golf clubs so we match you with the right vehicle size.
• Keep your phone with WhatsApp handy on arrival day – it’s the easiest way for us to update you if there are any last‑minute changes.
