Why you’ll love this…

The rural towns and fishing villages of Fuerteventura offer a glimpse into real Canarian culture
The fairytale-like village of Betancuria is brimming with history, like it's Gothic-style church
There's a chance to taste locally made goats cheese and honey rum, plus visit an Aloe Vera farm
You'll see Aztec designs, like moons, suns and snakes carved in the arch of Pajara's village church
Your local expert guide will show you sea caves, black-sand beaches and more on this full-day tour

What to expect

Stroll through timeworn village plazas and into pretty colonial churches, investigate sea caves and learn about typical produce. Between stops you'll visit lofty viewpoints to admire Fuerteventura's unusually stark landscape. It may look barren but Marta, one of our expert guides, says, ‘There are 44 different bird species found on Fuerteventura, despite the lack of trees. That's only four fewer than on the forested island of Madeira.'

You'll start the day learning about one of the island's best-known products at an aloe vera farm. Find out how it's become an excellent all-rounder in the wellbeing world. We'll then head to Pajara to visit Nuestra Señora de la Regla church to admire its standout Aztec-looking façade. Marta adds, ‘Pajara was once voted the sixth most beautiful village in Spain. It oozes charm.' Drive next to the tiny west-coast fishing village of Ajuy, where you can explore its black-sand beach and sea caves in chalk cliffs. It's on to Betancuaria next, with a photo stop along the way to overlook the parched mountains and the ocean at the Las Peñitas viewpoint.

Step back in time in Betancuria with a chance to see the church of Santa María – the oldest in the Canaries – which was consecrated in 1424, or take a visit to the archaeological museum and view some interesting exhibitions. Then it's on to a family-run restaurant in Valle de Santa Ines for a lunch made from locally sourced ingredients. And to round off the day, we'll visit a goat farm and sample local cheeses as well as local jams and honey rum liqueur – a Fuerteventura favourite.

Liked all of it, our guide Daniel and driver Antonio really made the trip. All the stops were very intersting and picturesque, with a special nod to the goat farm the trip was worth it just for the cheese, rum and jam.

It is a good way to see other parts of the island, however did not see any caves and the windy weather prevented cliff top walk. The stops were ok but we were given an hour each stop to find things to do in dare I say boring areas. The cafe massively overcharge, a can of coke/tonic water anda small bottle of water cost €4 euro. The village toilets charge €1 and were were filthy. The guide was knowledgeable and interesting but the venues were not that interesting and overall not value for money

Lots of interesting facts about the island and was nice to visit the smaller villagers The local lunch was very good, I think we could have spent less time at the goat farm, and I was disappointed that the visit to the aloe Vera farm was not a tour of the whole farm but a very informative short talk inside the shop. It would have been interesting to tour the farm and see how the aloe Vera is made.

Cofete sunset 4x4 safari in Punta de Jandia

The volcanic landscapes of Fuerteventura's mountainous interior are scaled from the seemingly endless coastline is this late afternoon off-road safari to Cofete. Juan Carlos, one of our local guides, says, "Cofete was so removed from civilisation that it spawned a wartime spy mystery – and countless novels – centred on the enigmatic Villa Winter. Was it a transmission centre for U-boats? A hideout for secret agents? A ratline staging post? A venue for hedonistic parties? The legend only grows with each passing year."You'll first head into Fuerteventura's central mountains, where cloud-wreathed slopes plunge down to endless, deserted beaches. The most eye-catching is Cofete beach, which clocks in at almost 14km. The spray from waves creates an almost ever-present haze over the shoreline. Heading off-road onto hairpin tracks, you'll bump around the Mars-like landscapes around Pico de la Zarza, one of the island's highest volcanic peaks. Here, you'll enjoy panoramic views over the buffeted west coast before dropping down to Cofete, a ramshackle hamlet.This mostly abandoned village is home to the mysterious Villa Winter, which is rumoured to have been a Nazi hideout after World War II. Next, it's off to Punta de Jandia at Fuerteventura's southern tip. Hopefully, you can enjoy a sunset over the lighthouse and Atlantic, before a snack and glass of wine at one of the few restaurants found in this remote part of the island. You'll then wind your way back to your hotel under the starlit sky.

El Cotillo sunset 4x4 safari in Fuerteventura with Bayuyo Volcano

This exclusive off-road experience takes you through northern Fuerteventura's volcanic landscapes to wave-washed fishing villages. And to top it all, your evening is rounded off with the chance to see an epic sunset. What's more, you'll do it in a small group of no more than 16 guests. Juan Carlos, one of our local guides, says, ‘Right from the go, it's a full-throttle adventure as you rumble through the Bayuyo badlands. With their scorched earth, dusty trails and volcanoes, you'd be forgiven for thinking you were on Mars.'We'll hook inland to the Bayuyo volcanic zone, zooming down dirt tracks and past craters on lava-scarred fields. There's a photo stop at the Bayuyo volcano itself, where with a bit of luck you might meet the friendly local chipmunks. ‘Bring some nuts,' advises Juan Carlos. We'll then make a beeline for Majanicho, a ramshackle hamlet huddled in a sheltered cove. From here, we'll follow the coastline on sandy trails until reaching the fishing village of El Cotillo. The waves have made it something of a mecca for surfers.Unlike the coastlines to its north and south, El Cotillo beach is black volcanic sand. You'll get to visit the three-in-one lighthouse and the Toston tower for some snaps. There's also free time to grab a bite to eat or poke around the village. It's then on to a viewpoint to watch the sun sink into the Atlantic while you sip on a chilled cava. Then drive back under the star-lit sky is the icing on the cake.

Ajuy and Las Peñitas hiking tour with picnic

Everything that makes the western highlands of Fuerteventura special comes together on this walking tour. Your guide will lead you through one of the island's greenest areas and barren landscapes with a Wild West feel, all the way to the fishing village of Ajuy – and there's a few hidden surprises on this well-known route. Fernando, one of our insider guides, says ‘Every year, on the third Saturday of September, thousands of islanders dressed in traditional Canarian costume pilgrimage through the gorge to worship Fuerteventura's patron saint.'Discover off the beaten track parts of Fuerteventura as you embark on foot, crisscrossing valleys from the hamlet of Vega de Rio Palmas to the hermitage of Las Peñitas. There'll be plenty of photo stops and the chance to rest in the shade under one of the many date trees which dot the route. Thanks to the surrounding sea of green vegetation and otherworldly rock formations, locals refer to the area as the ‘Oasis of Fuerteventura'. Film fans, though, can spot it in one of the scenes from the Marvel movie, The Eternals.Continue the trail along a gorge towards the coast and we'll reach the wave washed Ajuy. This remote village is famed for its sea caves, which you'll get time to explore along with its black volcanic beaches. Stroll along the shore at El Jurado and treat your feet to a dip in the refreshing water of the Atlantic. We'll tuck into a well-deserved picnic before heading back.

Fuerteventura island tour with goat farm visit

If you fancy a taste of the authentic Fuerteventura, then this day out is for you. Pretty villages, smugglers' caves and beautiful scenery are all on the menu, along with an aloe vera plantation. To top it off, you'll get to sample some of the island's best delicacies at a goat farm. Yurena, one of our local guides, says, "We're very proud of our majorero goat cheese, it's a staple in our kitchens. Learn how it's pressed with woven palm leaves and rubbed with paprika or gofio flour for flavour."Kick off at the aloe vera plantation and learn all about its reputed health benefits. Then discover the village of Pajara, famed for its unusual church façade and its wooden balconies. Fran says, "The inspiration behind the parish church's Aztec-themed portico remains a mystery. Just above the door, you'll see symbols of suns, serpents, lions and doves. And if you stop and take a closer look, you'll find many more."Plus, there's free time in Ajuy, a fishing village that meets the ocean at a black volcanic sand beach. There's a lovely, scenic walk on chalk cliffs to limestone caves where smugglers once hid their contraband. Nestled in a valley dotted with palm trees is Betancuria, the island's first capital. Here, you'll have free time to explore the cobbled streets and its church – the oldest in the Canaries. After lunch in a family-run restaurant in Valle de Santa Ines, there's a visit to a farm. Sample majorero goat cheese, jams and other local specialities. A tasty way to round off the day.

Private sunset safari tour to El Cotillo with Bayuyo Volcano

This exclusive off-road experience takes you through northern Fuerteventura's pockmarked volcanic landscapes to remote beaches and the fishing village of El Cotillo. On this private tour it's just you, your family or friends, plus the guide, so take it at your own pace. Juan Carlos, one of our local guides, says, ‘You can see a string of volcanic craters behind Corralejo. You visit the largest, Bayuyo, on this safari. The last eruption was about 10,000 years ago, spreading lava and ash across the north of the island, and it actually expanded the island by around 100 square kilometres.'You'll be whisked down rural trails and past lava fields as we zoom through Fuerteventura's scarred landscapes. Stopping at Bayuyo's scorched flanks, you'll get to see the crater up close. Juan Carlos adds, ‘A scurry of chipmunks is often waiting there to see if anyone has brought them a snack. They love nuts.' From here, you'll traverse arid terrain in your 4x4 until you reach the beachside hamlet of Majanicho on the northwest coast.Next, you'll follow sandy tracks parallel to the coastline until the splendid beaches and lagoons of El Cotillo come into view. Enjoy some free time in El Cotillo and the chance to grab some dinner. There's a great variety of eateries, so take your pick – tasty tapas in a typical Canarian bar, fresh fish straight to your plate. Stroll to the harbour or enjoy the view from Tostón castle while the sun sinks slowly into the ocean.

Jandia dolphin-watching cruise in Fuerteventura

Bring a splash of excitement to your holiday with this two-hour cruise, where you'll be on the lookout for some of the ocean's most playful residents – dolphins. The calm, warm waters surrounding Fuerteventura are a dolphin's dream, rich with food and full of life, making it the perfect spot to see them darting through the waves and putting on a natural show.Catch the breezes on deck and keep your eyes peeled for the first hint of movement – you'll often just see a fleeting shadow or flash of dorsal fin before a playful pod surges into view. Then, with a bit of luck, you'll be treated to an incredible show as they leap, plunge and race through the water alongside you.You may even spot baby dolphins swimming close to their mothers, and if you're really lucky, pilot whales too. And when your eyes aren't tracking the waters, you'll have the Jandia coastline to gaze out over while you sit back with a drink and relax. Plus, if the weather plays ball, you can enjoy a swim stop and make use of the snorkelling gear on board.
