What Does a Mauritius Trip Cost from India?
Indicative per-person pricing for a 5–7 night Mauritius trip from India ranges from about ₹55,000 at budget level to ₹220,000 at luxury level, based on twin sharing and land arrangements. International airfare is generally excluded unless a package states otherwise.
These figures are planning ranges for 2026, not confirmed Tripstor offers. A budget trip uses simpler guesthouses or 3-star stays, shared transfers and limited excursions. A mid-range trip adds 4-star beach hotels, some meals and a few paid activities. A luxury trip includes 5-star beachfront or private-island resorts, premium meal plans and private excursions.
The final quote depends on departure city, travel dates, hotel availability, meal plan, transfers and excursions. December–January festive demand and five-star beachfront resorts are the biggest cost drivers.
Mauritius Trip Cost by Budget Tier
Mauritius trip cost from India splits into three practical tiers for 2026: budget at about ₹55,000 per person, mid-range at about ₹85,000, and luxury at about ₹220,000. Each tier assumes twin sharing and land arrangements, with flights usually separate.

Transport - Limit paid excursions
Pick two or three paid highlights such as Île aux Cerfs or Chamarel, and fill other days with free public beaches and markets.

From our travel specialists
What our team sees when planning these trips, beyond what the guidebooks say.
Confirmed 11 Oct 2026
Local transport and connectivity are the most practical surprises: visitors report that renting a car is useful, but automatic cars may be the only available option at the time of booking, and airport SIM pricing can vary. Food is generally manageable for Indian travellers, with vegetarian choices and Indian-influenced cuisine widely available, though hotel meals can cost substantially more than local restaurants.
The available traveller reports do not provide enough India-specific evidence to identify a commonly regretted month or season. One travel discussion suggests May as a lower-price period with generally pleasant temperatures, but this is not presented as a firsthand regret.
A recurring mistake is changing accommodation too often or booking an itinerary without accounting for driving time between regions. One Indian honeymoon report used three bases during seven days, while another traveller said a week was enough to cover most well-known attractions; this supports planning geographically grouped day trips rather than overloading the schedule.
Travellers frequently add or arrange transport after arrival, especially car rental, because it makes beaches and inland sights such as Chamarel, Bois Chéri and Grand Bassin easier to combine. They also seek out local restaurants or beach food trucks instead of eating every meal at the hotel.

What is the best time to visit Mauritius?
May to October is cooler and drier, and September to November is particularly favourable for beaches and sightseeing. December–January is peak festive season with the highest prices. February–April can be wetter but offers lower hotel rates.
Which is better for honeymoon, Mauritius or Maldives?
