    Some activities, including mountain hikes and certain excursions, require professional guides or specialist operators.

    10. Weather Conditions and Third-Party Activities

    Boat excursions, water activities, and certain outdoor experiences are subject to weather and safety conditions.

    The Real Taxi Mauritius and its partners may modify, postpone, or cancel an activity where conditions make it unsafe or impractical.

    Where an excursion is cancelled by a third-party operator due to unsafe weather or sea conditions, rescheduling and refund arrangements will be handled in accordance with the operator's applicable policies and the customer's legal rights.

    We will communicate available alternatives where reasonably possible.

    • Vehicle breakdowns

    Where a disruption occurs, we will make reasonable efforts to inform affected customers and arrange an appropriate alternative where possible.

    12. Liability

    The Real Taxi Mauritius is committed to providing professional services with reasonable care and skill.

    However, we are not responsible for losses or disruptions caused solely by circumstances beyond our reasonable control, except where responsibility cannot lawfully be excluded.

    Third-party activity providers are responsible for the services they independently operate, subject to applicable law and the circumstances of each booking.

    Nothing in these Terms & Conditions excludes or limits liability that cannot legally be excluded or restricted under Mauritian law.
