Anyone visited the Mud Volcano in Columbia?

We were quite excited about a trip to visit the mud volcano when we get to Columbia on the Christmas cruise, but then I read somewhere that its organic material decaying, and now my mind is working overtime wondering what the organic material is.:eek:

Can someone tell me whether its safe, and whether there are any hygiene precautions taken, eg shower before you get in as with blue lagoon in Iceland. What is the average temperature of the mud.And what happens when you get out, how 'clean' is the lake water?:confused:

If we don't do this trip what else can you recommend.

I take it that's a 'no' then.

Try posting in the 'Ports of Call' forum on here. There is one for Colombia. You might get more response. I'm not sure if Thomson have been there before.

Many thanks, I haven't seen that on the forum as its all new to me, but I will look for it now. Cheers.
