Volcano!

Born in a pyroclastic explosion, the tour starts by investigating the smoking crater that is Mount Batur. Landing to experience the desolation and heat a volcanologist will help you to understand the violence of the eruption. Circling small volcanoes and vents that constantly belch ash and rock the helicopter will land at the beautiful Lake Batur to visit villages dependent on the Volcano for their livelihoods and lives. Flying up from Batur to Mount Agung the guide will explain the devastating impact of Agung’s last major eruption on Balinese society.

This trip may be cancelled at short notice due to eruptions.
