Lanzarote volcano tour

Were the sky not blue in Lanzarote, you'd think you were on the Moon or Mars. They're both a bit far away, but Lanzarote is just 30 minutes by boat from Fuerteventura, which is a short time to travel for an otherworldly experience. You'll visit Timanfaya National Park, El Golfo and a winery – all in one day.After an early pick-up, you'll go to the port to board the ferry to Playa Blanca. The action starts straight away with a visit to Timanfaya National Park, which is home to a third of the island's 100 volcanoes. Admire eerie landscapes of fantastic forms in shades of maroon, red, grey and black. You'll also be treated to a few party tricks courtesy of the geothermic earth below you.On the park's coastal edge, head to El Golfo to see the green lagoon at the back of a black beach and the nearby Hervideros cliffs. They were formed by molten lava pouring into the sea. There's a stop to learn all about the benefits of aloe vera. Rounding off the day is a visit to a typical wine cellar in La Geria, where, for a supplement, you can sample some of the wine on offer.
