Full description

Depart from the port of Kardamena in Kos and take a 1-hour cruise to the volcanic island of Nisyros. Upon arrival, transfer to a waiting bus that’ll take you on a short drive to the volcano. Listen to an informative guide along the way.

Get information about the volcano and the history of the island. Then, feel the force of the lava rumbling deep beneath your feet as you enter the volcanic crater. See the bubbling mud pools and steam geysers, and imagine that you have landed on the moon.

Return to the port and get the chance to wander around the town of Mandraki. After a short walk through the narrow streets of blue and white painted houses, visit the monastery of Panagia Spiliani, considered one of the most beautiful monasteries of the Greek Islands.

Make your way back to town for some free time for lunch (own expense) or do some shopping before boarding the boat back to Kos at 4:00 PM.

was fab going into the volcano, but my bus nearly went without me, saw him pulling off as I got to it, I was only maybe one or two minutes late, they obviously didn't check everybody was on! the monastery was great too, had plenty of time on that part of the trip.

Excellent day well organised and communication from point of booking until the end was excellent. All ran to time and was amazing to walk on the volcano bed (even if a bit smelly!). Lovely stop over and walk to the monastery before hand (although monastery was very small / cramped so could have missed that part out, but views from there were lovely!

The trip to volcano and town Mandraki was wonderful. First we visited town Mandraki were we went to lunch & we could go to the church where the entry was 2,50€ and we have a lot of free time (2-3hours) and then we visited the volcano. The entry for volcano was 3€ and you need to walk down to the crater. We were there for about one hour and it was more then enough. The tourist guide Marta was very friendly and she answered all of our questions. If you go you will have a wonderful time!!
