Travellers, both domestic and foreign, who visit the volcano by themselves, either alone or as a group but without an organized tour, will have a choice of either booking online round the clock or buying tickets on spot at the ticketing offices between 7.30 am and 4 pm.
If during a short trial period the online booking system proves efficient, it will be implemented permanently and becomes obligatory for all visitors. Introduction of online booking aims at improving services at the park, increasing transparency of the operations and facilitating management of the conservation area.
