Day-by-day travel diaries and photographic diaries of geology tours run by GeoWorld Travel
We enjoyed a return visit to Germany in October 2023 to visit world-class fossil sites and volcanic landscapes. Our group enjoyed a tour which started and ended in Frankfurt, taking in a variety of sites on the way! This is the day-by-day trip diary with a selection of the best photos.
Once again, we enjoyed a geological tour of the Canary Islands in the winter sun! The tour started on Tenerife, with time also spent on La Gomera and La Palma. There were many highlights, but standing on the summit of Mount Teide is hard to beat! This is a day-by-day account of our trip.
We recently returned to the Canary Islands to explore the geological highlights of Tenerife, La Gomera and La Palma. These are our forty favourite photos from the trip.
We returned to Germany in October 2022 for our “Volcanoes and Famous Fossil Sites” tour. The sites didn’t fail to impress! Our group was able to enjoy some exceptional fossil specimens in various museums, as well as visiting fossil discovery sites and searching for their own fossils. Visits to Ice Age caves and volcano sites rounded off a fantastic trip! We look forward to returning next year!
A photo diary of our geological and archaeological tour of Italy. Starting in Naples and finishing on Sicily, the tour takes in world-class vulcanological sites, such as Vesuvius, Stromboli and Mount Etna, and fascinating archaeological sites, such as Pompeii and Herculaneum. These are some of the best photos from the 2022 trip…
A photo diary of our 2022 trip to Iceland, which included not only geological highlights such as steaming fresh lava, geysers and fault planes, but also some awesome Northern Lights!
A selection of the best photos from our May 2022 Scotland trip. We were treated to some wonderful geological highlights, including Siccar Point, the Ardnmurchan Volcano and the iconic Fingal’s Cave.
We returned to the Canary Islands in January 2022 to lead our geological tour of these wonderful volcanic islands. As well as the usual geological features we see, this year, we were also able to view the impact of the recent volcanic eruption on La Palma and to see the new lava on the island.
We returned to Iceland in September 2021 to once again explore its world class geology. Our small group tour visited many of Iceland’s fantastic geosites, but the highlight has to have been the currently erupting Fagradalsfjall volcano – what a treat!
This is a blog of our Classic Volcanoes of Italy tour, which we lead for the third time in October 2019. Italy is a volcanically active country, containing the only active volcanoes in mainland Europe.
This is a blog of our Geology of Iceland tour, which we lead for the fourth time in September 2019. Iceland is one of the world’s most spectacular geological destinations, with volcanoes, rifting crust, glaciers and waterfalls.
In July 2019 we led our Geology of Scotland tour for the fourth time. Scotland has incredibly diverse geology – it was here that the enormity of geological time was first envisaged, the first attempts to measure the mass of the Earth were made, Thrust Faults were discovered and middle Jurassic Dinosaurs roamed.
