Unfortunately due to weather conditions we couldn't hike fully...but it was still worth it :) We later visited a wonderful thermal spring bath, which made our day!”

“Il serait bien d’avoir une meilleure description de la journée sur ce site car je n’avais aucune idée que l’on aurait 2h pour diner dans un resto sur l’ile de Thirassa. De plus, c’est vraiment compliqué retrouver son bus au retour, aucune indication sur ceux-ci. Très peu de temps aussi au sommet du volcan puisque le guide parle en anglais en premier donc ça donne peu de tenps au Franco de gravir le volcan par la suite.”
