Overview

    Climb aboard at Kos for a boat tour to the fascinating volcanic island of Nisyros. Reach the picturesque harbour of the island after about an hour and discover the traditional way of life and authenticity of the island.

    The bus takes you up a winding road until you reach the largest accessible volcanic crater in Europe. On the way up you will see a rugged landscape with strange trees and shrubs on one side, while you enjoy the magnificent view of the sea and the surrounding islands on the other. Once at the top admire the view of the active volcano crater – four kilometres in diameter – and look out onto a unique lunar landscape.

    In the afternoon stroll through the narrow streets of the port of Mandraki, enjoy a traditional lunch in one of the many traditional taverns or visit the famous monastery. Be enchanted by the magic of the island.

What to Expect

    Departing from the little port of Kardamena (1 hour drive from Kos town) we arrive by boat in approx. 50 minutes at the idyllic island of Nisyros. Here we continue by bus driving through the moon landscapes to the impressive "Stephanos" volcano. You can walk inside this active crater. It really is a fantastic experience! Just feel the energy of this sleeping giant! It is just a short walk to go down in the caldera. After this visit you will have time in the capital town Mandraki with its picturesque narrow streets, colourful flower pots, mosaics and white houses with coloured doors and windows. A great place to take beautiful pictures ! You can also visit the Monastery of Panagia Spiliani, one of the most famous monasteries of the Dodecanese islands.
