点评:Overnight Yasur trip was amazing! Went as a solo traveller to not only see the volcano, but also to see a bit more of Vanuatu further afield.
The flight was amazing. Professional check in, competent pilot, and a steady flight down to Tanna. For the flight there I was seated to the back, which did have limited leg room (I am only 1.64m), but not to the point of terrible discomfort.
We stayed at whitegrass which was a great little boutique hotel near the airport. Even if you have limited time between the flight and the volcano tour, I recommend checking out the pool. I was lucky that my room was very much at the end of the row, and it felt like I was the only one on the island.
The trip to Yasur was in well equipped 4WDs, with the option to sit on the back tray (which some in our group took up!). Coming onto the ash plains and seeing Yasur was sensational. We stopped twice for photos and to really grasp the enormity of the volcano.
I do recommend sitting up front if you get carsick, as it is an ‘off the beaten track’ drive.
We were guided to the volcano by guide Sophia, who lives close to the volcano and knew a huge amount of the culture and history of it. She competently took us up the trail from the carpark. It was about a 5-10 minute walk directly uphill: be prepared for a steep climb. I have moderate fitness and joint concerns, and was able to take my time to the viewing area.
Yasur is currently seeing an increase in activity, and with a bit of inclement weather, and a bit of patience, we saw huge explosions and thundering eruptions. I do recommend earplugs if you’re sensitive to noise.
Would highly recommend this tour, where everything is looked after for you and you simply need to go along for the ride.
翻译:亚苏尔火山过夜之旅太棒了!我独自一人前往,不仅是为了亲眼目睹这座火山,也是为了探索瓦努阿图更远的地方。
飞行体验非常棒。专业的值机服务、经验丰富的飞行员,以及飞往塔纳岛的平稳飞行。去程我的座位在后排,腿部空间确实有限(我只有1.64米),但还不至于非常不舒服。
我们住在怀特格拉斯酒店,这是一家很棒的小型精品酒店,就在机场附近。即使你从飞机到火山之旅的时间很短,我也建议你去体验一下酒店的泳池。我很幸运,我的房间在一排的尽头,感觉自己像是岛上唯一的客人。
前往亚苏尔火山的旅程乘坐的是设备齐全的四驱越野车,可以选择坐在后车厢的托盘上(我们团里有些人就这么做了!)。驶入火山灰平原,看到亚苏尔火山的那一刻,真是令人叹为观止。我们中途停了两次车拍照,以便真正感受这座火山的雄伟壮丽。
如果您容易晕车,我建议您坐在前排,因为这是一条“非主流”路线。
我们的导游索菲亚就住在火山附近,对火山的文化和历史了如指掌,她带领我们前往火山。她非常专业地带领我们从停车场沿着小路向上攀登。这段路程大约需要步行5-10分钟,一路都是陡峭的上坡:做好爬坡的准备。我的体能一般,关节也有些问题,所以能够悠闲地走到观景台。
亚苏尔火山目前活动加剧,虽然天气有些恶劣,但我们还是看到了巨大的爆炸和雷鸣般的喷发。如果您对噪音比较敏感,我建议您戴上耳塞。
强烈推荐这次旅行,一切都安排妥当,您只需放松享受即可。
