Excellent tour with a good mix of sitting on the bus and getting off to explore towns or taking pictures at scenic spots. Stop for lunch where you can have a set meal at a restaurant or buy sandwiches. Tour guide was very informative, friendly and always concerned that he didn't leave anyone behind at any of the stops. Driver was careful on the narrow windy mountain roads

we had a fantastic guided tour to the centre of Gran Canaria. Relaxed, small group and air conditioned vehicle with some downtime to stop for coffee and lunch. Very enjoyable and the guide spoke perfect English, would highly recommend this tour if you love the nature and want to get away from the coast

Nice bus ride in a small group, we learned a lot of information about life in Gran Canaria, our questions were also answered very well, we were often pointed out to unique things on the island during the trip (e.g. cavehouse). It was a great trip and worth seeing.

Empfehlenswerter Ausflug, um Gran Canaria jenseits der Küste kennenzulernen. Verschiedene Stopps auf dem Weg zu den höchsten Punkten der Insel. Aussicht auf tiefe Täler und Schluchten. Auf dem Rückweg Aufenthalt in Teror, einem der hübschesten Orte auf der Insel.

Excellent, friendly local guide and safe driver. It was interesting to see a different side of Gran Canaria and the mountains are spectacular.
