Want the ultimate winter travel splurge on La Réunion? This 45-minute helicopter flight from Saint-Pierre covers the entire island — and yes, it’s as impressive as it sounds. I’ve done scenic drives, coastal walks, and volcano hikes here, but nothing beats seeing the cirques, waterfalls, and volcanic craters from above. It’s dramatic, fast-paced, and deeply satisfying.

You’ll take off from Pierrefonds Airport, and within minutes you’re over Cirque de Cilaos, then sweeping into Cirque de Mafate, the only one inaccessible by car. You’ll fly past Piton des Neiges (the island’s highest peak), then trace the contours of Salazie, before swinging toward the Trou de Fer canyon and its huge drop. Next, you cruise over the east coast waterfalls, the wild lava fields of Piton de la Fournaise, and loop back along the southern coastline. It's nonstop scenery, with a live guide explaining what you're seeing — in French and sometimes English.

This isn’t cheap, but if you're only visiting once or want to mark a special trip, it’s the kind of experience that resets how you see the island. Weather delays are common — book early in your trip in case you need to reschedule.

👉 Local tip: Sit on the left side of the helicopter if you're the type who wants the best shots.
