Mauritius best rent-a-car offers
We understand the importance of choosing the right pick-up location. With that said, Bookingauto strives to provide customers with the opportunity to collect a car from all desired locations in Mauritius, including the city centre, main railway stations, and the nearest airports. Thanks to such a large selection of rental points, our clients can book a car in Mauritius and pick it up at a convenient place for them.
What we can offer:
By contacting Bookingauto.com, customers can be sure that there is the right type of car waiting for them. For example, if one person or a small group of guests arrives in Mauritius, it makes sense for them to rent a Convertible BMW 4 Cabrio from €92 per day. This presentable and comfortable car is offered for rent by EUROPCAR. When it comes to a family or a large company, the best choice may be a Minivan Peugeot Traveller at a rate of €53 per day. Your trip will be pleasant and safe in this roomy car. For those who want some extra comfort and have the appropriate budget, SIXT is ready to offer a Business-class model - BMW 7 Series. A budget transport option for a journey would be a Ford Focus car, compact but quite convenient, the rental of which would cost about €16 per day.
How to minimize costs:
In order to avoid paying too much, plan to pick up the car and return it at the same time. Car rental fees are set for the entire rental day. Therefore, if you return the car after 25 hours, the payment will be calculated as 48 hours, or two full days. Likewise, if you use your rental car for more than 72 hours, you will pay for 96 hours of rent.

The most popular cities and rental locations in Mauritius
The rental points are grouped into three main locations: city, airports, and railway stations. Therefore, it won’t be difficult for you to find an option that suits you. Important note: the number of cars offered and the rental price in different rental locations in Mauritius may differ. That is, car rental at the airport can be more expensive compared to the city centre. However, there is generally a larger choice of models at the airport. To pick the best option, you should study all of the offers, compare prices, and then make a decision.
Estimated rental price for 1 day
The highest demand for car rental in Mauritius occurs during the high tourist season - summer.
On average, the cost increases by 20-30% and the choice of available cars is also significantly reduced if you don’t book in advance.
For example, in July, the average price for the popular model Toyota Corolla in Mauritius is €33 per day.
In autumn, the same car costs about €8 per day.
Highest summer price for convertibles. For example, a BMW 4 Cabrio is offered at €92 per day.
Among the economy classes, the most popular model in Mauritius is the Ford Focus. The rental price for such a car starts from €16 per day from EUROPCAR.
For lovers of comfortable driving, you will also have to pay an increased price for business class cars – a BMW 7 Series will cost about €76 per day.
The excitement noticeably subsides in autumn and rental companies begin to reduce their rates. For example, you can rent a Toyota Rav-4 very cheaply in the autumn for just €33 per day.
Fans of exclusive car models also find it easier to fulfill their requests in the autumn months. For example, in Mauritius, you can easily rent a Porsche Cayenne to travel in style through the streets of the beautiful city. Rest assured that the memories of these drives will linger in your imagination for a long time.
