About

A lodge on the rim with the crater in the morning before anyone drives down. Rooms are warm, the mist is part of the stay, and the descent is arranged with a guide.

Wake up and the crater is there

We did not need a drive to see where we were. The room was cold at dawn and they had warned us. The price is a rim price.

One night is enough

The view does not improve on night two, and the descent is a morning. Stay once, go down early, and move on.

They held the descent until the children were up

A six o'clock start would have failed. The lodge moved it by an hour without making it a favour. We still had the floor before the vans stacked up.
