There's more to lava than you think - A fascinating tour through the cave.. Our guide, Angel was excellent, explaining the processes of volcanic eruptions in a clear and, and at sometimes amusing manners. Extremely knowledgeable and passionate about his work. 👏

Walking in a lava tunnel, super special! - Mario told us with great enthusiasm (and a banana from his own plantation) about the lava tunnels, the eruption, the geology and the special position of La Palma. Highly recommended!

Lava tubes and volcanos both old and new - Five out of five for this tour. Angel's knowledge was amazing and his ability to give this knowledge in a relaxed and enjoyable way allowed us to learn much more than we realised. We came away knowing much more about lava tubes, volcanos, La Palma and the other Canarian islands too.
