The tour

The whole island in a day

The full 360° tour of Reunion Island: over 200 km of coastline and four regions with completely different atmospheres. You go from the northern towns to the lush waterfalls of the East, from the lava flows of the wild South to the turquoise lagoon of the West. A full, exotic day, punctuated by photo stops and your driver-guide’s stories.

The itinerary, region by region

Your island tour

1
The North

Saint-Denis & the Barachois

Early start recommended (not mandatory). First stop on the Barachois seafront, with its cannons facing the ocean, before heading East.

North — Barachois
2
The East coast

Waterfalls & greenery

The wettest, greenest region: the Niagara waterfall, the baroque church of Sainte-Anne, and the Bassin Bleu tucked into the vegetation.

East — waterfall
3
Sainte-Rose

Notre-Dame des Laves & the Anse des Cascades

The church spared when the 1977 lava flow parted around it without engulfing it, then the Anse des Cascades, where fresh water tumbles into the ocean amid the palm trees.

Sainte-Rose — Notre-Dame des Laves
4
The wild South

Route des Laves, Cap Méchant, Grande Anse

Crossing the recent lava flows of the Grand Brûlé, the jagged black cliffs of Cap Méchant, then the paradise beach of Grande Anse and its protected pool.

South — Route des Laves
Midday

Lunch optional

At a restaurant, or with a stop at a good bakery or snack bar we know, to put together your picnic. Lunch is not included in the price (see the options below).

The South & the West

Étang-Salé & the West coast

The volcanic black sand beach of Étang-Salé, then back up the sunny West coast and Cap La Houssaye, with its dry landscapes and ocean viewpoints.

West — Étang-Salé
6
End of the day

Return to your accommodation

Completing the loop and returning in the late afternoon, after a day spent going right around the island.

West — return

The direction adapts

Depending on the day’s traffic and weather, we circle the island one way or the other to make the most of each stop and avoid jams. The order of stops may vary — what matters is seeing as much as possible in the best conditions.

On a cruise or a port call?

We adjust the itinerary and stops according to your latest return time to the ship and the day’s traffic: depending on conditions, some places may be dropped or replaced so you can re-board on time. On this tour, we recommend a picnic rather than a restaurant — you save time and see as many sites as possible.

The lunch break

Two options, your choice

At a restaurant

Creole cuisine or a seaside table, depending on where we are at midday. We recommend the best spots.

≈ 30 € / person

As a picnic

A stop at a bakery or snack bar we know — known for their good products — to buy lunch. Flexible, friendly and local.

≈ 15 – 20 € / person

Lunch is not included in the tour price — you choose the option on the day.
