Lava up close! - Spectacular to be this close of real lava, you can feel the heat and power of it, took the show at vik and you could feel the host loved to present the experience and knew a lot about the lava.

Lava Show Experience - Indoor Activity - Small and intimate show. Our guide through the experience was helpful in sharing how this lava experience was created and the types of lava it makes. The show was approx 50mins with a 15-20mins video as part of it. Show was prompt! Great experience in Vik to check out especially in rainy weather
Only wish there was close caption on the video as for those not having English as a first language.

A unique, educational and entertaining experience - This was a thoroughly entertaining and educational experience. We chose the upgraded ticket which included access to a very comfortable lounge and complimentary drink. Our seats were on the upper level giving an excellent view of all aspects of the show.
Neil (and Stefan) gave a very clear explanation of Icelandic volcanoes and their history and the practical demonstration was incredible. The lava flow into the viewing chamber was stunning, the heat and smell is hard to describe. Neil manipulated the lava flow to show how it flows, cools and the transformation it goes through.
At the end we got to see the furnace and heard how all methane from the local waste processing plant powers the furnace and the heat generated goes into the building. The show makes the building carbon neutral.
We each came away with a piece of lava rock from an earlier show as a souvenir.
The staff were all very friendly, the ambiance was very atmospheric, and like most things in the city, the gift shop was very expensive!

Impressive experience, with some minor discomfort - Impressive show and very kind and funny host Gabriela from Portugal.
A longer scientific introduction would be highly appreciated and the free seating prevented me from sitting next to my brother during the show, considering the high price prebooking of seats together would be highly appreciated.
