Guided tour: Discover Gran Canaria
Overview
Discover Gran Canaria’s heart on a guided bus tour through spectacular landscapes, from agricultural fields and forests to mountains, natural parks and charming villages.
The journey begins among almond groves and cultivated lands, with stops in Arucas, famous for its Neo-Gothic church built from black volcanic stone, and Firgas, known as the “Balcony of the Atlantic” for its panoramic views and unique cascading fountain.
We then head into the mountains, with an optional lunch stop in Valleseco, before exploring protected natural areas and reaching the Cruz de Tejeda viewpoint. The mountain route continues to Roque Nublo, one of the island’s most iconic landmarks.
On the way back, we descend through San Bartolomé de Tirajana, enjoying views of Santa Lucía, before our final stop at an Aloe Vera plantation.
An unforgettable excursion to discover the landscapes, nature and villages that make Gran Canaria a true miniature continent.
