3.00Good but became hazardous on the rocky trail down into the crater as there were wayyy too many people and some were being reckless and careless along the trail.
The best tour i've ever had

5.00Since it’s a night hike, the group dynamic feels different quieter but still connected. You walk at your own pace, but still feel like part of the same journey.
Worth the Walk for the Blue Glow

- Review from Tripadvisor
5.00The hike feels slow and quiet at first, then suddenly you reach the crater and see the blue fire glowing. It’s simple, but somehow feels really special when you see it in person.
