Activities in Réunion

Felix ULM
If you really want to feel the wind in your hair, several outfits offer tandem microlight flights with a qualified instructor. They run about 10 different tours around the island, from gentle tours above the lagoon to tours of the three Cirques. If the volcano is active, they usually run a Spécial Volcan tour, taking in the volcano in eruption. This tour operator is based in Cambaie, near St-Paul.
