“Enjoyed the experience and our pilot Laura was the best. Highly recommend her as was a very experienced and a positive pilot with a smile. Although we were a bit disappointed we missed the Lava flowing by 14 days we still had a fun time walking on the old lava remains from the previous flow. The ride was smooth and we may book again for another adventure this trip. Feel free to check the videos on IG: @JYoffe”
