Mauritius, Easy And Relatively Cheap To Visit. by MauritiusGuru: 8:53am On Mar 27, 2021
Mauritius is a place that enchants one, once you step on the island described by Mark Twain as a paradise on earth.

To visit, there is free visa issued at the airport just like in Dubai. Note that you must have booked hotel and return flights( due to corona, you have to book quarantine and 3 different COVID-19 tests on days 1, 7 and 14 of quarantine.) All the above bookings must be done and paid for fully from your base before travelling( note: no reservations allowed). The final COVID19 protocol is that you must have a COVID-19 test certificate done 72hours before boarding your flight to Mauritius.

Security: It is very safe in Mauritius. Only isolated cases of minor thefts and domestic violence are recorded. This is not to say one should move around without applying some safety measures and one should know to keep away cash and valuables from public display and attraction of any prying eyes whether in a vehicle or while walking.

Infrastructure: Mauritius is at par with Europe when it comes to infrastructure and social amenities like good roads, electricty, water, public hospitals, public schools, food, jobs, WIFI and housing for all, through loans, highly subsidized and completely free policies. Education and Hospital is free to use in all public ones which are more equiped than the private ones.

Economy: Mauritius is a country of about 1.3 million people, yet, the FDI of Mauritius has consistently, been moving between the top 3 in Africa in the past 7 years. The political stability, quality of social infrastructure, clean environment, decent behaviour and very high employment of the citizenry attracts tourists, foreign investors, foreign students, medical tourism and regional and global conferences/seminars/meetings etc. Hollywood, Bollywood and Europe act movie scenes in unique choice locations only found in Mauritius. Mission impossible scenes were shot in Mauritius few years ago. Mauritius Rupee is stable and strong. 1 Mauritius Rupee(MUR) 1 is equivalent to 10naira currently in 2021. The government of Mauritius in the past 20years designed an economic plan to divest from Sugar, Textile and Tourism towards ICT and Finance management so that the Swiss model of being the center for global banking and bankers' banks of the world is replicated in MAURITIUS. This is already a success despite the money laundering issues that had attracted the hammer of the International global financial regulators. The pervasiveness of the internet access in Mauritius is so exciting and is subsidized by government, making it a matter of applying to get connected. With the decoder for the internet WIFI connection, you freely watch premier league matches, CNN, BBC and most channels free of charge. Mauritius has cheaper and easily accessible and affordable internet more than could be found in Europe and even the mighty America. New businesses move in droves to Mauritius because of the low tax for foreign companies in Mauritius and European organizations have been exploiting this cost reduction opportunity.

Vacation spots: the beaches, pre and post -colonial tourism destinations, UNICEF designated cultural artifacts and historic religious sites as well as the slave trade relics are all major attractions that litter the whole landscape of Mauritius. The unique geography of Mauritius presents endless water bodies, landscape( table and rocky mountains, valleys, gorges, hills, waterfalls and numerous beaches linning resorts and restaurants). It takes tourists decades to visit the many attractions in Mauritius. The prestine natural conservation of vegetation, water bodies and wildlife juxtaposed with the top notch modern cities makes it an unbelievable sight to behold

COST To VISIT and TOUR MAURITIUS: Between NGN 1.2M to 1.5M just to get there and then your budget decides what you spend in there.

Cost of Visit from Nigeria has two parts : PART A: Compulsory Flight -NGN450k to 650k, 2 weeks quarantine and 3 tests plus 1 test in Nigeria or point of origin of journey- NGN600k to 900k.

PART B: hotel stay after quarantine, feeding, internal transport, shopping and tourism expenses are dependent on your plan and budget. Cheapest hotels to stay in after quarantine in Mauritius are NGN10k per day 2star hotels ( This is not same as cost during quarantine. Quarantine stay costs are more because only 3 to 5 start hotels are approved by govt for quarantine, most 3star are already filled, currently).


This write up is for vacation only, note that you will find yourself in trouble and pains if you think that you can cleverly snick in, to start living in Mauritius with the tourism/visit ploy. You would have put your money to waste because this island has few or no hiding places and you will easily be fished out for deportation that your own people will sponsor, financially. Without the work/occupation permit you will not get a professional job. Even menial jobs will be hard and you will be used like a slave, mostly.


If you need to know more about relocation to work legally, watch out in future for more here or write me here

It depends on the school you intend to apply to. Also, the program of study. Professional courses usually have one application and start time. Others have 2 to 3 application and start times. Send me a private message if you don't want to share it here. abiolaoluwatoba554@gmail.com.
