Volcanic Discovery Tour

Churning beneath the earth’s surface and occasionally erupting in fiery outpourings of magma and ash, Kagoshima’s many active volcanoes continue to sculpt the landscape and the local culture. Learn about these powerful forces from an expert volcanologist, eat local fruits and vegetables grown in ash-enriched soils, and climb to the summit of a nearby volcano for some of the region’s most breathtaking scenery.
