The tea plantations carpeting the city are an absolutely tranquilizing attraction that the island of Mauritius is blessed with. As you drive on the winding mist-laden road which is surrounded by tea plantations on either side, you can witness hardworking tea-pickers at work, plucking leaves from the bushes in an almost rhythmic fashion. For the heart of all tea plantations don't miss the ever so magical Bois Cheri Tea Plantations. Established in 1892, Bois Cheri was the first tea plantation in Mauritius and is one of the many places recommended by the concierge at InterContinental Mauritius Resort Balaclava Fort. Ardent tea fans can go one step further and indulge in a guided tour through the tea plantation. On completion try dining at their terrace restaurant – in addition to the stunning panoramic views that it offers you can also enjoy an extensive variety of teas on the menu card which other than at Mauritius luxury resorts, you will have a hard time coming across.
