Surprisingly easy volcano trek with excellent views and a fantastic multilingual guide! - Excellent tour, would highly recommend. Our transfer driver promptly picked us up from the hotel to bring us to the meeting point, and our tour guide met us there only minutes later. Vim was a fantastic guide. He was not only knowledgeable about the geology of the island and the Tajogaite eruption, but he communicated these topics clearly for different levels of understanding, and in multiple languages! (English, Spanish, and I believe German too). The views were amazing, especially as we got closer to the crater of Tajogaite. As a fairly active person, the 2.5 downhill hour hike was comfortable, with a gentle gradient for the first half, steep in the second half (sometimes very), but all on sand-like ash so didnt involve any tricky foot placement (although the walking poles provided did come in handy, and the next day my back is a little stiff!). After the tour we were able to visit local cafes to get a drink and freshen up in the toilets, but I would still recommend walkers bring some wipes if they have then as your legs can get very ashy on the walk down. Maxxie was also an excellent driver, taking us first up to the start of the walk, then meeting us at the end and driving us to the viewpoint of the lava delta. I do not envy having to navigate the steep, windy island roads! Communication via Whatsapp with La Palma Transfers was clear and reassuring. All in all, I would highly recommend this activity for anyone wanting to see some brilliant sights, learn about volcanoes, and understand the "isla bonita" a bit better. We were picked up from our hotel at 7:45am, met with the rest of the tour group at 9am, and were back at the hotel by 2pm.

This is how you can get closest to the latest eruption - Since all the paths are guarded this is the only way you can get the closest on foot to the Tajogaite Volcano. However we hadn’t got a lot of time there, sometimes I felt that we are running. The walk there and back was about maximum 1,5-2 hours and it is not that difficult. Proper shoes are necessary because of the sandy surface. We were lucky with the weather, but sometimes it could be very foggy. Wim the guide was really up to date of everything related not just the latest eruptions but the volcanology of the island too. He answered every questions. The other viewpoints was not that interesting but they could be good backups if the weather is nasty up there in the mountains.
