Hola! We are Inés and Juanjo, two native Gran Canarians and passionate travellers. We are lucky enough to call this extraordinary island home—and we love sharing it with curious travellers who want to experience more than the usual tourist sights. Our tours are different because we believe that discovering a place should be much more than visiting beautiful locations. It should be about understanding its history, meeting its people, discovering its traditions and, above all, having a great time along the way. As two guides travelling together, we bring different perspectives, plenty of energy and a very personal approach. We keep our groups small so we can adapt the experience to you, answer your questions and make the day feel more like travelling with friends than joining a conventional tour. We combine history, geology, local stories, legends, music, humour and a few surprises along the way. We love bringing the island to life—and our guests often tell us that our tours are as entertaining as they are informative. Gran Canaria has many faces. We want you to discover them all: the landscapes, the ancient cultures, the traditions, the food, the people and the little details that make our island unique. Come and explore Gran Canaria with us—not just as visitors, but as locals sharing the island we love. Certified Canarian touristic guide NR-35-1-0002357 TA-1-0003865.20

Hike at your own pace through volcanic landscapes and discover the history, culture and symbolism behind Gran Canaria’s most iconic landmark.
Overview of your Las Palmas De Gran Canaria tour
Roque Nublo is undoubtedly the most iconic landmark in Gran Canaria and one of the island’s greatest symbols. This spectacular volcanic monolith rises from the heart of the island, surrounded by breathtaking mountain landscapes. On this hike, we’ll explore the area at a relaxed pace, taking time to enjoy the scenery, nature and tranquillity of the mountains. Along the way, you’ll discover how volcanic forces shaped Gran Canaria and learn about the deep symbolic and cultural importance of Roque Nublo, both today and for the island’s first inhabitants. Access to Roque Nublo is currently regulated, with a limited number of visitors allowed each day. Don’t worry—we are authorised guides and will take care of the required permits, so you can simply enjoy the experience. After completing the hike, we’ll return to our starting point and continue with a few stops at other emblematic places in the heart of Gran Canaria. Join us and experience Roque Nublo beyond the viewpoint—as a landscape, a story and a symbol.
