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

We booked four tours total with Ines and Juan, and while every one of them were great, I think we would have to say this was our favorite of the 4. Don't do just this one though, because you would really be missing out on one of the best destinations we have visited.

This tour was excellent, mostly, because of the tour guide Ines and her companion Juanjo, that made our visit very comfortable and unforgettable. We were 6 in our 80's in relatively good shape, but with some walking long-distance limitations, but ready to visit the sites selected. They made the experience unforgettable by including a picnic in one of the parks. Ines and Juanjo were very knowledgeable, accommodating and kept on answering our many questions throughout the day. They concentrated our visit in Gran Canaria in some of the highlights that we were interested in -all gorgeous! -since we were tight on time mostly due to cruise timetable. Highly recommended.

What a brilliant tour - and what characters Ines and Juanjo are - not to mention their almost human car. 510 words is not enough room so have a look here: http://hallingholidays.blogspot.com/2024/04/the-canary-islands-grand-canaria.html

Excellent tour. Ines and her husband went above and beyond on this tour. They played and sang local songs, cooked a home made local meal which we ate on a beautiful vista area, helped us experience an overall knowledge of the island and kept us entertained!

Your Las Palmas De Gran Canaria tour itinerary

YOUR DAY, YOUR WAY Your adventure begins with private transportation and a comfortable journey into the island's mountainous interior. Travel through the beautiful countryside toward San Mateo and Cruz de Tejeda, where extraordinary volcanic landscapes open before you. Continue to Tejeda, one of Spain's most beautiful mountain villages, before reaching Pico de las Nieves, one of Gran Canaria's most spectacular viewpoints. From here, the scenery changes dramatically as we continue toward the Caldera de los Marteles, an impressive volcanic crater surrounded by rugged mountain landscapes. The journey continues to Agüimes, a historic Canarian village where traditional architecture and everyday island life still coexist. But the itinerary is only part of the experience. We'll share the island's volcanic origins, local culture, traditions and legends — while also showing you places and viewpoints that many visitors simply pass by. Just your private group, your local guides and the real Gran Canaria.
