By Air
The national carrier Air Mauritius operates daily flights to Rodrigues Island, but one must be prepared to shell out US$275 for a return ticket that is valid from five to 30 days.

By Road
Bus - Mauritian bus services serve their purpose quite well, but they tend to be a bit slow, since traffic in Mauritius can be slow moving. There are several tour operators, and although no single company covers the entire length and breadth of the island, you should have little difficulty in getting to the place you want to. The main centers for buses are Port Louis (Immigration Square and Victoria Square) and Curepipe. In other places, buses stop plying at about 6:30 p.m., so do take this into account when planning a late night out. Please save your tickets for the length of your journey, since you are liable to be asked for them by inspectors.

Car - Driving is on the left side and you can rent a car with ease in Mauritius. Local drivers seldom observe driving rules here and the roads can be potholed, without pavements and with slow-moving pedestrians claiming the road as their own. If you are lucky, you may find smooth roads. An international driving license will suffice, but car rental companies require proof that you are over 23 years of age.

Taxis - Taxis in Mauritius are expensive, especially after dark (when you really need them!). It is a very good idea to agree on the price before setting off—ask the locals for information on reasonable fares.

The alternative to taxis in places like Grand Baie is to rent a motorbike. One can also rent bicycles in most areas—this may be the best way to soak in some local atmosphere in an unhurried way.
