Nature is calling for research adventure tour from the Land of Origins!

Nature is calling for research adventure tour from the Land of Origins!
The long-silent Hayli Gubbi volcano has erupted for the first time in 10,000 years, right in the spectacular Danakil Depression, near the iconic Erta Ale and the surreal colors of Dallol.
Imagine watching fresh lava flow and walk in the newly lava created terrain, feeling the Earth’s heat. Standing in the very Rift Valley where Lucy, our 3.2 million year old ancestor, was discovered will be an exceptional experience.
Afar, the land of glowing lava lakes, salt deserts & Dallol’s neon landscapes, newborn volcanic formations, where the legacy of Lucy can also be explored.
If you’ve ever dreamed of witnessing a living planet, this is your moment.
