Car rental and car dealers in Port Louis

Port Louis at a glance

Port Louis lies in the west of Mauritius, about 35 km from Sir Seewoosagur Ramgoolam airport in a straight line. By road this is an estimated 48 km, or about 70 minutes at an average 42 km/h, so allow more in the morning and evening peaks.

Our survey finds 56 listings in Port Louis: 9 car rental desks, 46 car dealers, 1 long-term lease office. 52 of them publish a business phone number and 42 a website, so a few have to be checked by phone or on the spot. The dealers outnumber what a visitor needs for a short stay: this is mostly a place to buy a car, not to rent one.

In the west the capital is busy at peak hours, and the access to Le Morne is by a single road, so leave early in high season. When you rent, ask for the total price with taxes, the excess, the deposit, the fuel policy and the exact place where the keys are handed over.

Nearby towns also have listings: Les Pailles (6), Terre Rouge (7), Baie du Tombeau (3), Beau Bassin-Rose Hill (14). Their pages are linked below, and the area page for the west shows every business of the zone on one map.
