About the Activity

The knowledgeable local guide will guide you through the lava flow from the eruption 100 years ago and talk about the lives of the people who still live on Sakurajima and the local specialties that hold a Guinness World Record. At the end of the tour, we will take a bus up to the observatory closest to the crater for a spectacular view. Visitors can experience the symbiosis between nature and humans where people live in an active volcano that is still active today.
