Airport transport for frequent expat business travellers

deepteshn

Good day


I would like to get an indication of the cost for transfers from the North (Grand Baie, Mon Choisy areas) to the airport for people that travel frequently out of Mauritius for business. I had been paying a driver Rs2000 per trip. My last trip was in December, and now he wants to charge me Rs2500 in April. That is a 25% increase. I don't have issues with price increases, but 25% seems overboard, especially since I have always been using the same guy.


I've had issues with other businesses also putting up prices between 15-20% at a time. Appears to be way over inflationary increases.


Has anyone had similar experiences and can you share your thoughts.

Taxi fares are outrageous, never understood why.

Not sure about any "frequent traveller" programs but I know a very reasonable taxi service, PM me if interested

Hello there,


You're absolutely right — a 25% jump in transport fees, especially without prior notice or added value, does feel excessive. Like you, many regular travellers are getting frustrated by sudden, inflation-beating price hikes that aren't justified by fuel or operational cost increases.


If you're open to trying a reliable, affordable alternative, I’d be happy to assist.


I know someone who offers private airport transfers from the North (Grand Baie, Mon Choisy, Péreybère, Trou aux Biches, etc.) to SSR International Airport with consistent, transparent pricing and a strong focus on repeat clients and frequent flyers.

Wishing you safe and stress-free travels,

I paid 1,500 from Grand Gaube to the airport. Not sure if it's because my cousin here own a travel agent. So he charges me less. Or that is the right price.

I would say that Rs 1800 to Rs 2000 is the average price from Grand Baie to the airport .

This is the anglophone section of the forum.

If you prefer French, there is a francophone section.

Thank you
