We also offer a Tanna Volcano Overnight Safari - There are no night flights from Tanna and this is why an overnight stay is necessary to see the volcano by night. The standard tour involves an overnight stay at Lenakel Cove Resort (see below). The flight departs Port Vila airport at approximately 1.00pm. Upon arrival you will be taken by 4WD to Lenakel Cove Resort for refreshments and relaxation before the evening Volcano Safari, which starts at 3.30pm On the way to the volcano, you will pass by custom villages, travel through the beautiful Tanna landscape and have the opportunity to take photos from the spectacular Loanialu lookout.

By just before dusk, you should be standing at the rim of the crater! You will have plenty of time to take in the natural fireworks display and take those once-in-a-lifetime photos before heading back to Lenakel Cove Resort to freshen up before dinner. After a good night's sleep, you will enjoy a hearty breakfast at 7.30am before heading out to the airport. Leaving Tanna at 10am, you will arrive back in Port Vila by around 11am and be returned to your hotel/resort.
