Le Domaine des Aubineaux full day + Lunch

The Domaine des Aubineaux is the first stop on the Mauritian Tea Route. Seize this unique chance to explore the “Domaine des Aubineaux” and its gardens, a colonial house built in 1872, which has been converted into a museum dedicated to the history of Mauritian Tea.

This visit and tour of one of the oldest tea estates on the island will take you back to the French occupation era. You will be strolling on the peaceful trails full of trees and visit an old French mansion where you will be transported to the past.

Le Domaine des Aubineaux, located in Forest-Side, some minutes away from the town of Curepipe, invites friends and families to come and discover its rich history, dating back to the colonial days. Built in 1872, this lovely mansion is tucked away in a wide space full of plants and tall trees. Full of furniture and paintings, each being nowadays living memories of that time, it has since been turned into a museum. A Restaurant has even opened on-site, in 2008. A rich programme (detailed below) awaits!
