The Mauritius Tourism Promotion Authority’s director, Arvind Bundhun, projected that the island’s tourism numbers would continue to rise as demand for travel to the area “now ramps up.”
“We are delighted that the Ministry of Health and Wellness has reviewed the sanitary protocol for visitors to Mauritius,” he added.
“Automatically this renders experience of travelling to Mauritius far easier and more streamlined.”
