Mount Vesuvius.
Let’s start with the world’s most famous volcano, Vesuvius. More known as the natural disaster that took the Roman city of Pompeii under its arms… or its lava. If you are not already familiar with the famous story of the volcanic eruption that killed thousands of people, now is your chance to see the coming ones with your own eyes.
Now let me tell you this, this Italian volcano has been dormant since early 1940, however many experts think that only means one thing; another eruption is on its way so be careful!
Sakurajima, Kyushu
Sailing, hiking, and even flying, you have a chance to see Japan’s Sakurajima and its stunning performance. With an average of 800 eruptions per year, volcanic eruptions are not a rare occurrence and there are even people who live right at the foot of the volcanic mountain.
Did you know? There are even days when the Sakurajima erupts three times a day!
According to how active it is, the Japanese volcano is dangerous enough so it is advised to stay away from it for at least two kilometers. However, do not expect to be alone when you go there since Sakurajima attracts many tourists every year.

Mayon Volcano
Last erupted in 2019, this Philippines volcano is known to be one of the most symmetrical volcanoes in the entire world. It is also the most active volcano found in the Philippines. The Mayon volcano erupts splurging its lava to a height of five hundred meters.
Watching the Mayon volcano erupt is a risky business. Even the people living close to it evacuate their homes when an eruption is expected. However, no worries, you can still admire the beauty from a safe distance. Or if you want to trek up the mountain you have to get ready for some serious business. With a trail difficulty of 7 out of 10, you can take your chance and head to Legazpi, and start your two-day journey!
