Spend the morning in southern Lanzarote on this half-day guided tour, combining volcanic landscapes with local flavours. As your guide Carlos says, “southern Lanzarote's got a vibe all of its own, with lava cliffs, vineyards growing out of craters and views that'll make you stop and stare.”
You'll kick things off at Volcan del Cuervo, a volcanic crater in the middle of La Geria – AKA wine country. It's one of Lanzarote's most accessible volcanic sites – you can walk right into the crater – and was born during the massive Timanfaya eruptions that began in 1730. The volcanic soil feeds the rows and rows of vines that you'll see in a panoramic drive through La Geria – the island's wine country.
Next, head to the village of Yaiza, known for its traditional white buildings, palm-lined streets and quiet atmosphere. There's a workshop at the Aloe Museum here, where you'll get to know this healing plant and its properties a little better. See if you spot the spiky plant in the wild on a short coastal walk along Playa Montana Bermeja, where black volcanic sand meets the Atlantic Ocean. Then wrap up the tour swinging by a small family-run winery. Surrounded by volcanic landscapes, it produces authentic wines using traditional methods, with vines grown in ash-filled hollows protected by stone walls. As Carlos puts it, “it's not just about sipping wine – it's about an immersive atmosphere where every detail from the décor to the story feels like stepping into a family archive, and where wine is made by hand with minimal intervention.” After an hour sampling and learning about wine, you'll be whisked back to your hotel in time for a late lunch.
