Top Lanzarote Day Trips

Such a lovely day! We first visited the very unique house of Omar Sharif and learned all about the history of the house. We then had a trip to the island of La Graciosa. If I’m honest it was a bit long for such a small island with not much on it. Maybe take swimwear to enjoy the lovely white beaches. We visited the church and lit a candle but felt like we were hanging around waiting to leave after that. We did struggle to find any restaurant that would allow us to sit and have a drink, they only wanted people having food. We had already had a very nice lunch on the boat (paella) so only needed cold drinks. We then topped off our tour with the amazing views of Mirador del Rio. Such stunning view!! Would highly recommend. The tour guide was exceptional, three different languages and we didn’t feel left out as the only two English speaking. He sat us next to him on the bus and it felt more like a personal guide which we loved. The driver was very safe and considerate too. A very enjoyable day.

If you're visiting Lanzarote, this buggy tour is an absolute must-do! We had an incredible time exploring the island, and our guide, Mario, was fantastic. He was friendly, knowledgeable, and made the whole experience so much fun. We even stopped for a wine tasting, which was a lovely surprise and a great way to experience a bit of the local culture. One tip for anyone booking this tour: although it's very hot in Lanzarote, the buggies get surprisingly windy once you're driving, so make sure you wear appropriate clothing and bring a light jacket or something to cover up. Highly recommend this tour—definitely one of the highlights of our trip!

Great excursion. Catamaran was lovely but most importantly, it wasn’t too busy so didn’t feel overcrowded which made a huge difference. The paella we had for lunch was one of our favourite meals of the holiday (and we’re in a 5*, all inclusive so that says something)! All the crew were really friendly and energetic throughout the day - it was quite a lively trip with music played throughout the day so if you’re looking for something more peaceful, it may not be the excursion for you. A minor point here would be there was A LOT of energetic, Spanish music being played which was a bit repetitive/boring for us Brits! Everyone seemed to be enjoying the atmosphere and they did play more of a mix towards the end of the day. In terms of the stops, we found the first stop slightly boring. We were told there was a church to look at which ended up being closed and there were minimal bars and restaurants, but we only had 40 minutes to kill so it wasn’t too bad. The second stop was lovely although no access to the beach. Overall a lovely day out and highly recommended!
