Your escapade will begin in front of the L'Aventure du Sucre museum (Sugar Adventure Museum), leading you along paths between numerous sugarcane fields for a total immersion in the agricultural world of Mauritius. On the way, you will pass by the garden of the Mauricia colonial house, then a breathtaking viewpoint overlooking the Pouce and Pieter Both mountains in Port-Louis and the northern islands of Cap Malheureux. At lunchtime, you will have the pleasure of sampling Mauritian specialities prepared by a resident of Pamplemousses, a 100% local experience!

Once back at L'Aventure du Sucre museum, you will have the chance to visit the museum on your own to complete your outing, while keeping to the theme of discovering the sugar culture of Mauritius. You will have learned a whole host of surprising things about the island, leaving you with wonderful memories of your electric bike excursion in Pamplemousses!
