Your Itinerary

Mirador Pico de Bandama

Caldera de Bandama - the islands largest volcanic crater. From its peak you will have great views also over the capital city, mountains and a big part of the eastern coast.

Santa Brigida

Santa Brígida - a small city with a pretty historical center. Due to the water sources the place is surrounded by green areas full of lush vegetation and palm trees. You will walk its lovely streets and have a chance to grab a quick coffee in a typical old coffee shop.

Pico de las Nieves

Pico de las Nieves - from the highest peak of the island you will have amazing views over the mountanous countryside. Your photos will be dominated especially by two mysterious rocks in the heart of the island - Roque Nublo and Roque Bentayga and if you are lucky, maybe Tenerife island will be visible far on the horizon. The weather on Gran Canaria is mostly great, but in the unlikely case of bad weather for this stop the day of your tour there might be no views from Pico de las Nieves. If that happens we would try to stop for you in other viewpoints on our drive down to the south of the island, where the weather is usually sunnier.

Reserva Natural Especial de Las Dunas de Maspalomas

Sand Dunes of Maspalomas - get yourself lost in the waste sand dunes. You will have 45 minutes to spend here, so don´t forget your swimwear in case you wish to have a quick jump to the ocean.

Pavel was very knowledgeable about the island.....and very entertaining too! Thank you, very good value for money.

Jennifer_G

Pavel, our guide, was brilliant. Really well informed and well organised. He has a deep knowledge of Gran Canaria and kept us interested and entertained all day. The tour is fascinating and shows you a different side to the island, away from the resorts.

I thought the host and driver were excellent. Very informative and interesting stories. It's a great way to see some more remote towns and views. Each stop had a sufficiently relaxing pace.

This tour gave us such a great sample of the highlights of Gran Canaria in one day. No time was wasted in souvenir shops or waiting in line. The guide was enthusiastic about his work and was very knowledgeable about history, geology, etc. If you only have one day, this is the tour to take.

The tour guide was very friendly and super informative. The views were incredible and the places we stopped at were all interesting. The restaurant the guide chose for lunch was well priced and served authentic Canarian food. Great tour at a great price. Was definitely worth it.

538philipe

Brilliantly composed and organised full day's tour taking in the best of the volcanoes and mountainous regions with spectacular views. We stopped at some of the prettiest villages on the Island. A final stop in the South to see the remarkable sand dunes. Our guide was knowledgeable, professional and jovial.

Wanderlassie

Tours that Last all day where someone else is in charge of the driving and seeing that you get back where you started for under $60 are the definite way to go, and this one was no exception! It was a great day and allow us to see so very much more of this second destination island in the canaries than we would have otherwise. Our guide was pleasant and considerate, and we would highly recommend this company as well.

Fantastic day out, Pavel is a great tour guide. lots to learn about Gran Canaria outside the typical tourist spots. Highly recommend.

James_L

10/10 Absolutely recommend Pavel if you're heading to Gran Canaria. The guy's super knowledgeable about the island, really funny, and incredibly kind. He nails the details and has been around long enough to have the inside scoop on everything. Also, don't skip on his food recommendations—they're fantastic. You'll get the authentic local experience with him for sure.

This was the third tour I'd taken in Gran Canaria and this was the ultimate experience. Pavel gave us insights into Canarian background and culture and sprinkled in lots of humour. I saw him interact with all people on tour to learn more about them. We had pictures of the old times to see how things had changed and ... I can't recommend this tour highly enough. I'd say it was one of the most interactive, fun, meaningful and worthwhile tours I've ever been on. Thanks Pavel
