3.00Picked up on time then transferred to another but after 25 mins. Next guide was a nice, helpful man called Andrea but his English was very hard to understand so we learnt nothing about Timanfaya. Bit expensive for what we got
Good value. Short time at...

4.00Good value. Short time at each place but a lot more included than expected - perfect if you just want an introduction to what’s around. Amazing view and great driver and host. Thank you 😎

5.00Excellent informative tour. The tour was well organised, pick-up exactly as arranged. Very good translation from tour guide. Nice restaurant for a very good lunch, this was extra on this particular tour.
Half day tour of the National Park

4.00Cut the trip by an hour by foregoing the “wine tasting”. Totally pointless in travelling to the bodega to only be given a “thimble” of wine.
Great use of just over half a day while in Lanzarote

5.00Really enjoyed the visit to the Timanfaya volcanoes, it was a unique opportunity to see something I haven't seen before. The trips to El Golfo and the salt plant were also really interesting. The stop for wine tasting is neither here nor there - the taster is a small sip of a single wine. The main advantage of that stop was the chance to grab a small snack and a cold drink (not the wine!). The driver and guide were both friendly and the enthusiasm of our guide boosted the experience.

4.00Tried long stay Air B&B for 5 weeks. We recommend car hire to see the whole island. Enjoyed Timanfaya Volcano trip but saved considerably by taking the car. Same story for Mirador del Rio. Spectacular views from there. Visited Caesar Manriques house which was the most disappointing excursion of our stay. Overall we thoroughly enjoyed Playa Blanca and indeed all of the island.
Five Stars!

5.00Excellent from the moment of getting onto the coach. Tour guide was great. He conducted the tour in English & German. He was so interesting to listen to. All the information was so informative, adding his own humor 😊 Timanfaya is just beautiful & breathtaking. Fantastic scenery & the history given by the guide was excellent. There were so many opportunities to take photos within the National Park. The other stop off places : salt works & vineyards just beautiful to visit. A trip so worthwhile to take. I’d go again for sure.
Timanfaya is amazing

4.00We really enjoyed the tour. Timanfaya is absolutely spectacular and we were mesmerised by it. It is a very quick tour, so if you'd like to have more spare time you should book a full day tour. The only part we didn't enjoyed as much was the wine testing as you can only try one type of wine and it's a very quick stop. In any case Timanfaya and the green lagoon were fantastic and the trip is worth it just so you can experience that. Would recommend to someone that wabts to do a day trip without spending the whole day out.
