Like stepping back to a pre-historic time- almost like a private tour fascinating and beautifully looked after site

A really good family visit, perfect for teenagers for a couple of hours exploring the site and seeing up close lots of geothermal wonders. It was a beautifully presented little adventure, from crossing the lake by boat to then exploring the site on the boardwalks- we felt as close as you could get to the silica terraces, bubbling hot springs, gases and mud pools. The book we bought from the ticket desk was a very good guide explaining how everything was formed- I would recommend buying it as we learn a lot and it helped us navigate the site. Definitely worth visiting and very well managed.
