Island of intensity
Article Abstract:
The French island of Reunion has remained largely undiscovered by tourists, mainly because it has been overshadowed by neighbouring Mauritius. It offers a wide range of scenery, including an active volcano, and is particularly good for hiking. It is very accessible, given its relative obscurity, and offers a very high quality transport system. Its only real drawback is its high prices.
