About This Tour
A volcano guide will take you through the Sakurajima Visitor Center, a "mini volcano museum" near Sakurajima Port, and the lava field formed during the Great Taisho eruption (1914). You can learn about the history of the volcano while looking at the exhibits in the visitor center, and you can also see the real thing on the lava trail. It is a guided tour that can only be found on a realistic active volcano. On the coast, you can also enjoy the majestic scenery of lava that has flowed into the sea and Kinko Bay (Kagoshima Bay). This is a one-hour volcano learning program that will make you feel that "the Earth is alive!"
