Best time to visit Mauritius
Mauritius is at its best from May to December during the dry and cooler season. This period offers calmer seas for water sports, lower humidity, and good visibility for diving. The summer season from December to April brings higher temperatures, heavy rainfall, and the risk of cyclones. The peak tourist season is July to September when the climate is ideal. The Diwali festival in October or November is a beautiful time to experience Mauritian Hindu culture.

Cat
On a trip to Europe, my hotel Wi-Fi was so slow and outside Wi-Fi was unreliable. I couldn’t take it anymore so I got helloroam for a few days. It was tricky to set up correctly because of the primary settings (with my original number). But I reached out to their customer service via WhatsApp. Super responsive and helpful, with specific and clear steps to troubleshoot. Appreciate having 4G roaming instead of being stuck with in and out Wi-Fi during my trip!!
Rated 5 out of 5 by this reviewer
Very good experience! The eSIM was easy to set up and worked great in London. It was much cheaper than it would have been to use my own operator there.
