We are glad we did this tour, seeing the sun come up over the clouds behind an inactive volcano is something very few people I know can say they have done. It was an amazing trip. The tour bus was comfortable, our guide Dino was very perky at the early hour and offered a lot of information along the way. Here are some items for thought, it is 40 degrees and windy at the top, if you do this trip, pack winter clothes. The tour operators start pick ups at 2am, plan this tour early in the trip while you are jet lagged, bring motion sickness pills if you have the slightest issue as there are lots of twists and turns. Do it once and you can scratch it off the bucket list.
