Very disappointing

Megan_C, Apr 2026

This is *not* a tour—it’s a string of ads for Fred Olsen, with quick photo stops and constant pushes to buy food, drinks, and souvenirs. Even the “National Park” is just a brief walk to another snack bar. FYI: Puerto de la Cruz pickup was at 6:40am, off the ferry at 11—over half the 12-hour day is spent waiting or in transit. For an authentic experience, stay on Tenerife and visit Anaga. This was the most disappointing Viator I have ever taken. Save your money.

Response from Host, Apr 2026

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re sorry to hear that the experience did not meet your expectations. We would like to clarify that the itinerary is designed to show several key highlights in a single day, which naturally involves travel time and short stops at different locations. These stops are planned to give a varied overview of the destination rather than focusing on just one area. Regarding the mentions of promotions or optional services, these are always offered as additional choices for guests who wish to enhance their experience, but they are never mandatory. We understand that this type of excursion may not suit everyone, especially if you are looking for a slower or more in depth visit to a specific area. Your feedback is appreciated and helps us continue improving.

Excellent day!

Michael_H, May 2025

The day was excellent! We were picked up on time, the ferry journey was great. The tour of the island gave a lot of information and the views are spectacular. We stopped off for lunch which we expected a small meal it was quite substantial a nice surprise! The ferry back and drop off were great. Most of all the tour guide, Fernando, was excellent!!

Awesome

Odundo_S, May 2024

We got to experience two or maybe three different climates in a short time. Be sure to pack something warm for the forest.

Great day trip to La Gomera.

Zsolt_B, Feb 2024

A fantastic day trip to La Gomera, getting to know the Garajonay National Park, enjoying a authentic local lunch and strolling in San Sebastian. The guide and the bus driver also did a great job. The only negative I can list here that our ticket said pick is at 8:00 am, while we were contacted at 07:40 already, by somebody that we are about to miss the pick-up... Please communicate clearly.

(Very) express tour of La Gomera

Florian_P, Jun 2025

What about this excursion? If I couldn't have put any stars, I would have. Even though La Gomera is beautiful, the experience with our guide Fernando was disastrous. For starters, the excursion was much shorter than expected. It was announced from 8am to 8pm but in reality it was from 9:30am to 5pm. Moreover, it was planned in French especially, but the guide made us understand from the beginning that speaking in French for 2 people bothered him. Comments in French were much less detailed than in other languages, if not absent. Then we did not see all the sites advertised in detail of the excursion, although we waited for 1h15 in an uninteresting place (children's playground). And finally, our transfer to our hotel was not ensured, our guide asked us to walk home, claiming that it would be faster. In short, do not hesitate to visit La Gomera but flee this guide.

Response from Host, Jul 2025

Merci d’avoir partagé votre avis. Nous sommes sincèrement désolés que votre expérience n’ait pas été à la hauteur de vos attentes. Nous souhaitons préciser que Fernando est un guide officiel accrédité par le Gouvernement des Canaries et l’un des professionnels les mieux notés avec lesquels nous travaillons. Son engagement envers la qualité du service et l’attention portée aux visiteurs est constant, comme en témoignent les retours positifs que nous recevons régulièrement. Concernant la langue, nous tenons à souligner que la langue réservée par nos clients est toujours respectée. Lors des excursions multilingues (maximum 3 langues), il peut parfois y avoir une impression de moindre détail, mais nous vous assurons que les explications sont bien données dans toutes les langues prévues. Nous regrettons si cela n’a pas été perçu ainsi à un moment donné, car notre objectif est que tous les participants se sentent bien accueillis et inclus tout au long de l’expérience. En ce qui concerne les horaires, la traversée en ferry fait partie intégrante de l’excursion. Le ferry de retour depuis La Gomera part à 17h30, avec une arrivée à Tenerife à 18h20. À partir de là, les transferts vers les différents points de prise en charge sont organisés. La durée totale de l’excursion correspond donc à celle annoncée, transferts compris. De plus, cette traversée entre les deux îles offre des vues uniques que l’on ne peut admirer que depuis la mer, et que beaucoup de nos visiteurs considèrent comme l’un des moments les plus mémorables de la journée. Concernant l’endroit que vous avez mentionné comme un “parc pour enfants”, il s’agit en réalité de La Laguna Grande, une zone emblématique située dans le Parc National de Garajonay, un espace naturel protégé classé au Patrimoine Mondial de l’UNESCO. Nous y accordons un temps libre afin que les visiteurs puissent profiter des sentiers et de la beauté de la forêt de lauriers, un environnement unique au monde. En ce qui concerne les transferts, nous disposons de plus de 65 points de prise en charge répartis dans toute la zone sud de Tenerife. Nous informons toujours à l’avance du point le plus proche de l’hébergement du client. Malheureusement, il n’est pas possible de desservir chacun des plus de 6 000 hôtels de la région, mais notre objectif est d’offrir un service pratique et efficace pour tous. Nous vous remercions pour vos commentaires, que nous prenons en compte afin de continuer à nous améliorer. La Gomera est une destination fascinante, et nous vous remercions de nous avoir choisis pour la découvrir. Cordialement.
