More than enough time to visit the caldera and explore it on your own. Everything was great, although unfortunately we were not able to bathe in the hot springs due to the time of year and the cold water (the bravest ones did).

The program was respected with a plus: great guide who accompanied us on the Volcano and translated the comments into French! Top! To recommend.

Beautiful day - guide was very knowledgeable about the area and the volcano park

Great value for the price! Excellent tour and far cheaper than other options

Well organised trip and the guide was very helpful and friendly
