The Journey to Port Louis from SSR Airport

The drive from the airport to the capital follows the main motorway sequence, starting from the south and passing through the central plateau. You will see the landscape change from sugarcane fields to the dramatic peaks of the Moka mountains. On the way, the air usually gets a bit cooler as the road climbs toward the center of the island.

As you pass through the mountains, the city skyline begins to appear in the distance. From a driver’s perspective, this route requires careful timing during peak hours because of the heavy traffic around the capital. We always suggest leaving for the airport a bit earlier if your departure is during the morning or afternoon rush.

You will notice the busy streets and the mix of old colonial buildings with modern offices as you enter the city. The transition from the quiet motorway to the lively urban environment is quite interesting. It shows you the energy and diversity of our capital.

For history lovers, the Aapravasi Ghat and Fort Adelaide offer fascinating insights into our island’s past. The city is also perfectly placed for those who want to visit the nearby Pamplemousses Botanical Garden or the beaches of the north.

Our “No-Shop-Stop” Guarantee: No Commissions, No Pressure

We take a firm stand against a common, yet frustrating, local practice: the forced souvenir shop stop. In Mauritius, many drivers will divert you to specific shops because they receive a commission just for walking you through the door—even if you don’t buy a single thing. This often leads to high-pressure sales tactics from shop staff that can sour your first hour on the island. At Taxi Service Mauritius, we are strictly against this. Our drivers are prohibited from making unauthorized stops. Your time is yours, and your journey is direct. We value your trust more than a few euros in commission.

You can view taxi prices in Mauritius on our website to help you plan your travel budget before you even land.

Distance & Travel Time to Port Louis, Mauritius

Don’t Let a Simple Form Delay Your Holiday in Port Louis

At Taxi Service Mauritius, we believe in looking out for our guests before they even land. We want to offer a piece of “Free Advice” to every international traveler—even if you haven’t booked your airport transfer to Port Louis with us yet.

Please ensure you fill out the Health & Safety Mauritius Travel Form 2026 online before you fly.

Currently, the health counters at SSR Airport can be a real mess. If you arrive without the form completed, you’ll be forced to fill it out on the spot. It takes roughly 10 to 12 minutes per person to complete—and that’s if you can even find a spare pen or a flat table surface in the crowded, busy terminal. For a family of four, that is nearly an hour wasted just standing around after a long-haul flight.

Why this matters for your arrival:

  • Skip the “Paperwork Trap”: Completing the form online allows you to bypass the health counter queues entirely, saving you and your family from a frustrating start to your trip.
  • Avoid Extra Waiting Fees: Most transport companies have strict schedules and pay for airport parking. If you are delayed by an hour at the health counter, many drivers or companies may be forced to charge you additional “waiting hour” or parking fees.
  • Start Your Holiday Immediately: We want you in our air-conditioned cars and on your way to the hotel, not sweating over forms in a crowded airport.

We share this because we want your first impression of Mauritius to be one of beauty and ease, not bureaucracy and unnecessary surcharges. It’s just our way of welcoming you to the island!

·       In case of bad weather, flooding, or any other main events occurring on  the island, Taxi Service Mauritius reserves the right to request an earlier pick-up in order to reach the airport on time for departure. Our drivers are forced to make heavy diversions during bad weather because some of our roads are flooded.
