Embark on an immersive journey into the heart of Gran Canaria's most stunning natural and cultural landscapes. Starting from the panoramic views of the Guriete viewpoint, you will cross the impressive Caldera de Tirajana, a geological wonder shaped by millions of years of volcanic and erosive activity. Delve into the island's aboriginal heritage at La Fortaleza, where ancient caves and sacred sites tell stories of the indigenous Canary Islanders. Enjoy the charm of Santa Lucía de Tirajana, a picturesque village where history and tradition blend seamlessly, offering a taste of local life and gastronomy, including a tasting of locally produced delicacies. Continue your adventure with a hike through the spectacular Las Vacas ravine, a hidden gem with gentle, winding rock formations, and conclude the day with a refreshing swim at the beach in the fishing village of Arinaga.

    We were a small group of 8 people travelling in a minibus. Our tour guide David was very knowledgeable about all aspects of the island. We enjoyed the tour very much and got to know more about the history of the island, the former indigenous inhabitants, the volcanoes etc. We got to see wonderful natural views. The lunch was very tasteful with a spectacular view. Also we got to taste some local products in a little village shop. Highly recommendable if you want to get to know and see the island off the beaten tourist tracks.

  • Fantastic Trip!

    The pick up was on time and the mini van was all air conditioned. Me and my husband loved this trip we learnt a lot about the history/ cultures. Angélica was our guide and she was fantastic! She was very friendly, welcoming and she was very informative. Our driver Sheila made us feel safe going around some of the narrow/ bendy roads and she was very friendly too. The local tasting was lovely tried lots of new things which you could buy after and the lunch tasting was delicious tried some traditional dishes which were very yummy. There was soo much to see and do and would defiantly recommend. Make sure you wear comfortable shoes as lots of walking, bring lots of water and some toilet roll!! As a couple of stops the public toilets didn’t have any in there. 100% Recommend!!
