Know More about this tour

Explore the tunnel in an easy and enjoyable manner in a small-group tour. The tunnel is in many places covered in large rocks and difficult to pass; however, a footbridge and several paths have been built over the roughest terrain, making the standard tour accessible by all. Impressive lighting in this part of the tunnel highlights the changing colors and clearly shows the powerful volcanic activity that formed the tunnel.

The tour is offered every hour from 10am to 5pm and each tour takes approximately 55 - 60 minutes. By pre-booking your time slot, you'll guarantee your place for the hour of your preference. Helmets and lights provided. Warm clothes and sturdy shoes are recommended, and bear in mind that there is usually some water dripping from the ceiling, so wearing a water resistant or waterproof jacket and clothes is recommended.

    Great guide, funny, informative. I only wished it were longer! If you have trouble walking on uneven surfaces please heed their advice and don’t go! If you have trouble seeing in low light conditions please heed their advice and don’t go. They state it for a reason! Otherwise, a very safe tour.

    Love every minute. Only wish that we had known about the extreme tour to do that as it is more active and longer. Anna made the experience great. Sadly we were her last tour. Highly recommend though.
