TransportDer Guide war nicht gut. Nichts erklärt usw. Fahrer war gut. Das Essen hatte nichts mit guten Canarischen Spezialitäten zu tun. Kalt und geschmacklos. Für das was angeboten wurde, war der Preis viel zu hoch. Hatten vor 3 Jahre eine wunderbare Tour mit super Guide, tollen verschiedenen Speisen und viel preiswerter.
Gran Canaria boasts the diversity of an entire continent in one island. And as soon as you travel inland on this small group tour, you'll discover just why. Journey through mountainous landscapes and savour a local lunch in Bascamao. There are also stops in Artenara and a wine cellar. Esteban, one of our local guides, says, "it's high after high on this tour, starting with lunch at a cave restaurant with views and then going to the island's highest village. At over 1,200m above sea level, Artenara is nestled on a ridge surrounded by jagged peaks. It's beautiful."
Head north via the Mogan Valley, snaking our way through gorges and gaps towards the very centre of the island. The views along the way are camera-grabbingly good, so there'll be an occasional pit stop to take some pics. Lunch in a family-owned ‘cave restaurant' in the remote hamlet of Bascamao is next. Savour dishes made from locally sourced ingredients, with a side of views over the surrounding countryside and the ocean. What's more, with this visit, you contribute to the local community and economy.
Afterwards, head to the highest town on the island, Artenara. Explore on foot this tiny village clustered around a whitewashed church or stick your head into the famed cave dwellings museum. Next, you'll head to the Presas viewpoint, among others, for views of alpine landscapes and the northern coastline. Round off the day with a stop by a family-run winery to sample its wines.
