Why Visit
an Active Volcano?

Volcanism is the most fascinating force of the planet. Volcanic areas are among the most interesting and beautiful in the world: think of Italy, Greece, Iceland, Indonesia and many others.

Witnessing a volcanic eruption is one of the most awe-inspiring displays in nature. On certain tours, we try to see lava and ash from close and safe distance. Seeing a volcano erupt is an unforgettable experience.
