The Founders' Day – A Private Day in Mauritius with the Eternis Founders

10 hours

Easy

One day, two guests, the two founders of Eternis Tours. Private helicopter, private speedboat, private driver, sunset on the water. Nothing to pay on the day. Twelve a year.

We run two companies and answer our own phones, so we don't do this often. Twelve times a year we clear the calendar and spend a full day with two guests, showing them Mauritius the way we actually live it.

The day is built around you, but a typical one looks like this: pick-up from your hotel or villa at 8am. A 30 minute private helicopter flight over the lagoons, mountains and craters, in an Airbus H125 flown by Mauritius Helicopter Limited. A private speedboat on the northern lagoon, our own route: the islets, the dolphin waters, a beach with nobody on it. Lunch at the table we book for ourselves, in our name. The afternoon on roads tourists never take, with a driver, so the two of us can actually talk to you. Sunset on the water. Then a bottle of Chamarel rum and a small island gift box to take home.

Every entry, drink, landing fee and tip is handled before you arrive, so there is nothing to pay on the day. From the moment you book until your flight home, you also have our private WhatsApp line for anything else you need on the island.

The price is for up to two guests. Booking is on request: tell us your dates and we reply within 24 hours. Your helicopter flight is confirmed once the operator approves it, so we need the passenger details below at least 14 days ahead.
