Through the streets of Port Louis to the heart of China Town, experience the unique fusion of Sino-Mauritian flavours in our exclusive food tour.
A symbol of Mauritius’ diversity and multiculturalism, China Town was once the most vibrant place in Port Louis, opening its door to all Mauritians. Despite the many challenges faced by the community, China Town has managed to preserve its culture through festivals, ancient customs, and food.
During the China Town Food Tour, our guide will lead you from the Caudan Waterfront to China Town to discover Chinese food in Mauritius. En route, we will stop at various local restaurants and street food vendors to taste Sino-Mauritian food, ranging from delicious duck to traditional Chinese sweets and tea.
Join us on this unique food experience! Let China Town fill your hearts… and stomachs 😉
