Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

    Absolutely no regrets! We didn’t plan to go but when we stopped we met Jessica the guide outside and she welcomed us. Even though we were a bit late for the usual visit she did the tour for us and really educated us on the plants and animals. We were so happy that we stopped by. It was such a good experience. Highly recommend the place and the very dedicated guide. Cheers

    I had a great time visiting the turtle reserve and the caves. We had a very interactive lady as our guide and it was great learning more about the different types of turtles. Inside the cave as well, we discovered a lot of rock formations, with some interesting figurines.
    Put on some sunscreen and bring your hats when visiting the turtle reserve.

    I must visit if you are visiting Rodrigues. Beautiful island with beautiful birds. Nice food for lunch. Unfortunately it rained all day when we went but we still enjoyed our time.

    This beach is a 30 minute walk along a coastal path from St Francois.The path is quite uneven and there are steps down to the beach which could make it difficult to access for people with mobilty issues.The sea has a strong undertow so my friend and I did not swim far out but stay near the beach.It is windy here so the heat is deceptive,we got sunburnt even though we applied sun lotion.Take a picnic as it is deserted.

    Good trip for the market fair.
    A must would be the coconut water drink. Cheap and so refreshing.
    The market in itself is quite similar to MRU however you would clearly see exposed all the local delicacies put on those many shelves.
    For tourte lovers, go and taste the tourte prepared by Jean Louis Edouard of Accacia Rodrigues.
    For pickles I would rather suggest to visit Valerie's at Citronelle though.
    For honey, be careful as most of them are unfornately not pure honey. Pure honey could be obtained at Miel Victoria.
    Always a must-visit place to have a look at.

    I had a nice time. It was not too scary and worth the price. Individuals facing dizziness should abstain. Just be careful and listen to guide's instructions.

    A simple but elegant cathedral. The interior is very plain, but there is some lovely wall art. Very peaceful. There were only 6 other people there when we visited.

    My friend from London saw this beautiful cushion cover in Toti when she was visiting Rodrigues for a few days at the end of November . Unfortunately she could not buy it as Toti was closed when she stopped by on her way to the airport .
    I called Toti on the next day and spoke to Isabelle who made arrangements for the cushion cover to be sent to myself in Mauritius. I paid by bank transfer with Postage and packing at a reasonable additional charge. I collected the registered parcel 5 days later at my local post office .
    Family and friends have admired the cushion cover as it now sits proudly on a sofa in London.

    You get about 10 minutes here with most of the excursions. It's worth it for the brief hike and views from the top.
