Such a great experience
I had an amazing experience joining the volcano hiking tour! The guide was super responsible and professional, giving detailed explanations along the way and always checking in on how everyone was doing, which made us feel really well taken care of. The group was also really friendly，we looked out for each other, and the vibe was relaxed and fun. We not only got to enjoy the stunning natural scenery but also learned a lot about volcanoes and geology. Highly recommended for anyone who loves nature and adventure!

The missus was THRILLED
Has a wonderful time. I Love hiking so I was always gonna have fun. My girlfriend is far less enthused when hiking is the activity. But the view was just amazing. She even ended up mastering the art of sand drifting down the big hill. The tour guides were fantastic too - well informed but also just good fun. 10/10 would recommend. We often think about this great time! P.S. the car ride up is not at all a rollercoaster. Not sure what the other reviews are about. Tis a little bumpy at most and I would be shocked if anyone would let this stop them from the fantastic experience.

Amazing
The staff are excellent. Lovely young people.the walk was beautiful. Easy uphill hard to keep balance sometimes coming down hills but a lot of fun. I'm 64 overweight not overly fit and enjoyed it immensely. Younger people managed with ease. Nothing was too extreme the lovely guides kept it at a reasonable pace totally recommend

一段令人難忘的旅程
十分推薦此行程，可一覽壯闊的火山景象，隨著嚮導的步伐深入火山底部，過程雖然驚險，但嚮導經驗豐富可信賴，此外進出保護區的山路是另一個驚喜，是真實的踫跳過山車！！
