    Within the next 45 minutes we will be arriving at the island of Nisyros. Then our bus, will take you to the highest point of the island at 2,000 feet where the volcano is , to enjoy the panoramic spectacular view. If you wish you can descend into the volcanic crater where you can feel the volcano moving under your feet and see the sulfur springs bubbling up. It's a unique and great experience as this volcano is among the most popular and special spots in Greece. Whoever sets foot in the heart of the crater is almost impossible not to be captivated by the awe and majesty of the place around them, as the image that one faces upon stepping on the volcanic rocks it only seems unreal.
