The visit

Château de Labourdonnais was built in 1856 and extensively refurbished in 2006 to restore its graceful colonial architecture to its original glory.

The site is among Mauritius’ foremost cultural attractions and a flagship of national heritage. A visit to the area is an immersion into the art of living in 19th century Mauritius. From the moment you turn into the majestic Intendance tree-lined (Ficus Retusa) avenue leading to the Château, you will discover a magical place that shines a spotlight on Mauritian history, nature, cuisine and savoir-faire.

It is an utter delight to discover the house and stroll through its lovely gardens and historic orchards. In addition to a large number of endemic species, the estate boasts over fifty varieties of centuries-old mango trees, as well as spice plants and other exotic fruit trees.

As they amble through the grounds, visitors may chance upon an old enclosure in which giant tortoises peacefully graze. At the end of each visit, clients are invited to take a seat at the estate’s tasting bar and to sample the products of the Domaine’s distillery and orchards. These include a range of delicious rums, jams, fruit jellies and fruit juices made on the estate. This complimentary tasting is included in the price of entry to the Château, and each of the items is also available for purchase in our souvenirs shop.
