Some time ago Mark Twain wrote: “You gather that Mauritius was made first, and then heaven, and that heaven was copied after Mauritius”. By reading this one cannot help to think that Mauritius must be an extraordinary place, a place unlike any other in the world! Whilst Mauritius offers lush white sandy beaches, warm turquoise waters, fine food and exceptional hospitality, this island also provides business travellers the opportunity to break away for a conference or incentive trip in world class style.
For many conference organizers and event planners Mauritius is only a dream, but organising or attending an event in paradise, is much easier than you think! With so many luxury venues on the island, it’s no wonder that Mauritius has become such a popular MICE (Meetings, Incentives, Conferences and Exhibitions) destination. Especially for South Africans Mauritius is the ideal MICE destination, with no visa’s required (just a valid passport), frequent flight schedules and the close proximity – you won’t find any better reason to choose Mauritius as your next meetings venue.
MEETINGS

With a growing cyber-city, Mauritius has all the latest state of the art technology and equipment needed to perform any type of event, no matter how big or small.
INCENTIVES
Perhaps the number one reason to choose Mauritius over many other MICE destinations is the diversity and class of the islands incentive products on offer. Mauritius caters for almost every individual and the activities can range from a sailing tour to the coral reefs of the West, hiking-canyoneering and rock climbing in the Black River National Park to shopping at any of the many speciality shops or vibrant markets.
