Went on a coach trip to this site. I would recommend going by bus, as independent car travellers queue for hours to get in. Coaches have priority and allow you to see most of the park, whilst cars have limited access. I'd recommend using local tour companies, rather than Tui, as its much cheaper. Our guide Michael, was funny and very informative. Would recommend this outing.

We were obviously excited to visit here as it’s a must do when visiting the Island. We booked our own tucked and drove so we had the freedom to visit when we wanted. All went very smoothly but if you’re doing the same be aware of the limited parking. It was quiet when we went and still had to queue for a space for 20 mins. I should imagine if you go in the summer then you’d have no chance so book a coach trip. Once there as predicted it was Stunning. We ate chicken cooked over the lava tube in the restaurant and had some drinks with amazing mountains as a backdrop. We were treated to the display by the staff where they show you the steam tubes and let you touch the hot stones etc. Also amazing and the staff were lovely. My criticism comes with the coaches that take you around the closed road route to show you the volcanos. Firstly you have to wear a mask even though Covid has long since gone and you don’t have to wear them anywhere else. Conveniently they will sell you one for a euro as nobody had one & they had plenty in stock suggesting that this is solely a money making spin. I would have rather paid 2 euros to not wear a mask. Then the coaches that they use are tourist coaches with low roofs heavily tinted windows. As such you can’t see anything above you which is most things and everything is grey and green. The whole point of the trip is to see all of the amazing colors and this is explained with there commentary. It’s such a disappointment that you can’t see any of it. You’d think that if the whole point of the coach tour was to see the mountain in all its glory then surely have clear windows or even open top busses. Everybody was trying to look down the aisle out of the drivers window as that glass was clear. How can they have got everything else so right but this part so wrong. I don’t want to be a moaner as we had a lovely day & everything else was so amazing. Hopefully they will change this at some point & people can enjoy the mountain as it’s supposed to be seen.

Fantastic sights- craters, volcanos, lava lakes. Equally good for both adults and kids. Very different compared to any other Canary island and it's fascinating to see the black landscape. The kitchen from hell(Diablos kitchen) is very interesting as well. Stays constantly at over 300c. The pit is around 10-15m deep and it's amazing how it cooks the food so fast. Restaurant is ok, pricey but was expected and very limited dishes. We reached around 11.30am, car parking took 30mins, queue was another 20mins. Either reach at 9-10am or plan for 1pm. When we returned there was no queue whatsoever. Similar timeline for cueva de Verdes which was equally interesting with brilliant surprise at the end!

Nice place, very windy the day I was there. Excellent road network up to the summit, restaurant with toilets all fine. it's not a geyser though, staff pour water into the hot rocks which creates a small jet into the air. Good day out in the winter sun.

We visited the Timanfaya National Park on our half day island tour. The scenery was breathtaking, and a little scary, even in the safety of a tour bus. Visitor Center was a nice little stop.

Suggest you book a coach tour to do this:- 2 reasons:- 1. There were cars queuing for 3 hours to get in, the coach just blasts past all of these. 2. The coach drives for miles through this Luna landscape, cars are prohibited. There are amazing geothermal demonstrations. It’s a must. Great coffee shop, you can even have your steak cooked over lava, Almost!

Went in rental car, queued for only around 20 mins. Geezers ok, bus tour alright, they request masks at a cost of €1, took our own. English description on bus seemed like a direct translation of the Spanish by someone very non enthused, it didn't really work. The whole tour got a bit boring, especially for an eight year old. Can't rate the cafe as didn't go in. In fact it was all a bit disappointing, they could make more of it.

Well worth the trip into the lava fields and up around the old volcano's. Feels like you could be on another planet driving through. So great examples of the power of the earth up at the visitor centre. ie Cooking on the heat from a vent is a great eco friendly idea! A must place to visit if your on Lanzarote

Came here on an organised excursion on a coach frommpertu del Carmen.. its good to see the barren land and a couple of neat tricks to display how hot the volcanic area is. Would say it is better to come by coach as I could see plenty of cars queuing up to get in the area There's a cafe/restaurant at the top too. I also visited jameos del agua and mirador del rio

Fantastic excursion through this park. An unforgettable experience. Would definitely advise booking a tour bus rather than trying to go under your own steam - no queuing to enter the park, and only your buses and park buses can your inside the park anyway. Amazed at the skill of the coach drivers navigating the narrow hairpin bends! Touring this park is essential to understanding the landscape and culture of the island.
