Mauritius holidays from the USA

Calm lagoons, polished service and a mix of cultures on one small island. If you are travelling from the USA, we plan the whole trip, including the right flights, a hotel that suits your style and the transfers and tours that make the holiday easy.

Getting to Mauritius from the USA

Routes usually go via Dubai, Doha, Johannesburg or Europe. We compare options for your dates and look at total travel time, not just price.

Time difference

Mauritius is about 8 to 9 hours ahead of New York, depending on daylight saving, so most travellers adjust quickly.

How long to stay

For travellers from the USA, a Mauritius holiday is usually 8 to 12 nights, to make the long journey worthwhile. We recommend 5–8 nights on the ground.

Best time to go

May to December is the best time: dry, sunny and comfortable, with calm lagoons. October to December is especially pleasant before the heat builds up.

Entry requirements

Mauritius allows visa-free entry for visitors from many countries, with an online arrival form required before travel, and you may need proof of accommodation and onward travel. Please check the current rules for your passport.
