"I recommend"

We did the Bassin Bleu tunnel trail. It was a great experience for the whole family, making a change from the usual tours and giving us a better understanding of the formation of the lava tunnels and their current ecosystem. Alex is a super, passionate guide who takes the time to explain things properly and to talk to the whole group. I can't recommend this experience enough!

"Great experience"

A great, unique, incredible and unusual experience not to be missed on Réunion Island: exploring the lava tunnels with Alex. Alex is a passionate caving guide who gave us an extraordinary immersive experience in a small group without the crowds. It was a truly timeless experience. I had two experiences with him: the coulée 2004 tunnels at Grand Brûlé and the bassin Bleu tunnel at l'Eperon, two very different and fascinating experiences. What's more, he took some great photos of us.

"Absolutely exceptional"."

An unforgettable caving experience thanks to Alex! An absolutely exceptional guide: highly competent, passionate and always ready to listen. He shares his knowledge with enthusiasm, gives invaluable advice, and knows perfectly how to adapt to the expectations and level of each member of the group. What we particularly liked: Alex takes his time. It's not a race against time, but a real immersion, where everyone can take full advantage of the moment, ask questions, observe, and experience the adventure at their own pace. You can tell he really loves what he's doing, and that makes the exploration all the more magical. If you're looking for an authentic, professionally supervised outing on Réunion Island, look no further than Alex!

"An activity full of surprises and emotions"."

Thank you to Alex for allowing us to experience an adventure that, despite our advanced age, we hadn't had the chance to try out. His kindness, patience and clear explanations kept us safe during the tricky sections, and it was with a beaming smile that we emerged from the lava tunnel. We recommend this activity, which is full of surprises and excitement.
