Perfect Day…fantastic views - We are so happy we did this tour. It was just the perfect balance of getting into the mountains for fantastic views of Pique de Nieves and other natural site, plus experiencing quaint, beautiful villages in the north. As everyone says, Maria just makes the tour fun, interesting and personable. Great value! I would say it’s a must do if you’re visiting the area.

Peakin’ brilliant tour! - Excellent excursion which covers a lot of ground. Maria the guide was very warm and friendly and explained what was going to happen at every stage. Yes - some of the stops are short so you sometimes wish you had more time but it’s to be expected with these kinds of day trips. Maria gave us commentary the whole time we were travelling on the bus in English and Spanish which was really informative. I would 100% recommend this tour.

Exactly as described! - Beautiful landscapes giving a real feel of Gran Canaria. Francisco was an excellent guide, ably assisted by the amazing Barbara driving the coach along some spectacular roads! Really great value if you enjoy magnificent scenery, ending with the picturesque village of Teror. Well worth the day out.

Grandiose outlook - The tour led to several very impressive points in the northwest and in the middle of the island, including Pico de las nieves, Roque Nublo and some pretty villages. The tour guide María was very nice and explained everything very well in English and Spanish.

Great tour through Gran Canaria! - Our tour guide was Fran! He was really nice and explained many things about the island, which was really great. He also offered to give recommendations to products at the shops we went by. I would always to recommend a tour with him. The nature spots we have visit was really nice. I don’t if it is possible, but I would have liked it more to see more from the nature then the cities. But the cities were also nice.

A wonderful tour of the island's mountains and villages! - I was a bit sceptical about the value of this all-day tour but I am happy to say it was more than worth the price. Fran was a terrific tour guide, so knowledgeable and friendly, and the driver was top notch, ensuring that we felt safe while he negotiated the slightly scary mountain roads. We stopped at the highest point on the island, as well as visiting numerous fascinating towns and villages, as well as a gorgeous pine forest. A day spent exploring a hidden side of Gran Canaria off the usual tourist track, with spectacular views and an opportunity to sample local produce and buy direct from local producers - honey, goat's cheese, and so much else. Highly recommended - thank you Fran for a memorable day out!

An interesting experience - It's an interesting tour, but very weather-depending. Enough interesting information. In case of poor visibility due to fog, the guides try to change the itinerary accordingly so that we can see the objects from a different location.

Good for a bus ride. - I did not expect to spend almost the whole day on the bus. The driver was also very slow. One stop there was not much to see. There were several areas it would have been nice to stop for a short 15 min photo stop.
