You cannot visit Lanzarote without visiting Timanfaya. This place is out of this world and like being on another planet. We did a coach trip which I would recommend. The only down side was seeing camel rides for tourists which was not great..so avoid these

Get there early! Otherwise you spend your whole day in car queues to park and visit the site. Bus ride can cause you to be a bit queasy as it is a bit like a roller coaster ride. Kudos to those bus drivers! Mad driving skills! As you arrive you are directed to a leisure bus that drives you through the volcano area - very cool takes about 35 minutes. Enjoyed the sites! Phenomenal views.

Very interesting visit as we had never seen volcanic lava fields and the associated landscapes. Demonstration of the steam eruption was great as was the hot rock chicken oven, overall well worth a visit and if you go by coach they take you on a fantastic trip along a mountain road through the moonscape!!

Timanfaya Park is a must visit if you go to Lanzarote. There was a long wait of one hour to get into the park (because of many visitors) but it was well coordinated by the park personnel. The best part of the visit is the guided tour bus that cover espectacular views of the area. The visitor center was not very interesting. And finally we enjoyed a good piece of steak cooked on the volcano heat, something we do not do every day!

The coach trip once you get to the visitor centre is "out of this world" as you are driven around/inside the volcanic remains. The restaurant/ cafe is also a decent stop, as is the shop. Go early, as there can be car loads of queues in the morning, or go in afternoon when it is less busy.

This is absolutely a must see attraction, if you are coming to Lanzarote. At the visitor centre, you will feel hot stones in your hands, see fire come up from the ground, and see a hot water geyser spurting. You are not allowed to get out in parts, due to the authorities attempting to preserve the park. Always, in my opinion go on a coach tour, as they will get priority over cars (you can wait for around 2 hours to get into the park apparently) The tour we went on, we were picked up at 8:40am and dropped off at around 2:10pm This was the “short tour” and was around 31 euros per adult.

It was a really enjoyable half day out! We ignored the poor reviews and so glad we did! People going on this trip should want to see the amazing scenery rather than worry about a gift shop! We went by hire car and expected to queues so we were prepared. Aftrt 1 hr 40 mins of queueing we were there and straight onto a coach with an excellent driver. The coach was comfortable, and the views were amazing. We then took in the views, used the facilities, and left. My only slight complaint was lack of choice in cafe especially with no choice for GF diets. But we left and got something at our villa. We paid 48 euros for 4 of us which seems really reasonable. An interesting morning! Dont go if you are expecting anything other than a visitor centre and amazing views of the landscape and volcanoes.

We visited this as part of a premium tour (which was great). The drive up to the volcano is very scenic with almost martian like landscapes. The volcano itself was good, there were demonstrations where you get to hold hot rocks and a fun water spout trick. There is also the option of volcano cooked chicken which we did not get to try but it looked very nice. We did not stay long with our tour, maybe around 30 minutes but I felt this was more than enough time as once you see the demonstration there was not much more to do apart from having some lunch. There was a massive line of cars waiting to get in and it looked like it would take a very long time to reach the entrance. I do not think I would wait in line to see the volcano. I would highly advise you to do this as part of a guided tour as you get straight through the lines. The premium tour we went on was perfect and quite inexpensive especially considering how many other sights we saw. It is 100% worth it for time efficiency and value.

Amazing if you go early....we arrived at 8:45 and there were still a few cars in front of us. The photo is the queue when we left at 10:15. Lovely little tour, hot put and steam demo.

Absolutely fantastic experience. We were on an arranged excursion and we arrived at the park around 9am. This was clearly a benefit to us as when we were leaving there was huge queues of cars trying to get up to the top. The view from the top is spectacular and the experiments and experience are worth it as this is so unique. Highly recommend
