I visited Cofete Beach and Villa Winter as part of this guided tour during my holiday in Fuerteventura, and it was one of the highlights of my trip.
Cofete Beach is absolutely breathtaking. The scenery is spectacular, with dramatic mountains meeting a vast, wild coastline. The beach feels untouched and incredibly peaceful. I even had the chance to put my feet in the water, although the waves were very strong, which made it clear why swimming there is not recommended.
We also visited Villa Winter, where our guide explained its fascinating history and the different theories surrounding the building. It was a very interesting visit and added another dimension to the excursion.
Our guide made the experience even better. He was friendly, funny and knowledgeable, creating a relaxed and enjoyable atmosphere throughout the day. He was happy to answer questions, took photos for anyone who wanted them, and was an excellent driver on the winding mountain roads to Cofete, making everyone feel safe throughout the journey.
Overall, this was a very well-organised excursion and one that I would highly recommend. If you want to experience Fuerteventura's wild natural beauty while learning about one of its most intriguing historical sites, this tour is definitely worth doing.

We would give 6 stars if we could. What an amazing guide with so much knowledge and enthusiasm. Pierre is an inspiration. We had a fantastic afternoon. Lots of history. Lots of local information. Facts and conspiracy. He keeps the mystery alive without going overboard and we loved his humour and energy. We would definitely do this tour again.

Small group, enthusiastic and expert guide. Speaks three languages., Spanish, German and English.
Value for money!

Beautiful experience driving there and being on the beach. And interesting additions to my knowledge while visiting the villa. With an enthusiastic guide.

Good way to see Cofete and the winter house. Good guide/driver. You can drive there yourself, but the road is quite bad. A lot better to relax, see the sights and let someone else deal with the driving.

Hi. Everything was great. We really enjoyed it. Plus, we got to practice our English, jejeje The man who gave the tour is great

Unbelievable views you won't get anywhere else on FV! Yes, it is a distance and on a reasonable dirt road, worth every tight corner! Villa Winter stories were fascinating! Reyk was a great guide, story teller and importantly driver! Thank you Reyk!

We loved the tour. The guide Dierk knew alot about the island Fuerteventura, the history of the island and of Villa Winter itself.

Interesting but not what I expected. My fault I should have researched this Villa. i can only speak English and rest of group were German. So not everything got translated into English so I didn't feel so included especially when they were all laughing at things the guide was telling them. When at Cofete Beach i would have preferred contributing to the local economy and having a coffee in shade but this is not an option. 30 minutes on the beach at noon , with no shade, is not ideal

Brilliant, the guide was great and so easy to understand. I didn't know the places before hand. This was great.

Make sure to check the language the tour is in, I forgot to check it was in German. Luckily the tour guide spoke good English and compensated for this. Cofete Beach has great views, the Villa is interesting, took just over 4 hours.

Great trip with a good guide!! I like the stories that are told about Villa Winter.. And the view on Cofete Beach and being there was amazing to me. Recommended.

Great trip, Cofete beach is absolutely breathtaking, a magical area made famous by films like star wars and exodus and its easy to see why! Scenery is amazing during the drive too.
Stop at view point is great photo op, a real must see in Fuerteventura! Seeing lovely donkeys and goats on the way too. Expect bumpy off roading most of the way.
Villa Winter was interesting, seeing Pedros unofficial museum and meeting him and his lovely animals.
Our German guide Ricke (apologies for the spelling) tall, dark hair and used to work for TUI. He was fantastic, so knowledge and informative, thoughtful seat reserved in the van for my injured foot and he showed genuine interest in the area and history and care for his guests, safe driving throughout, very friendly and spoke great English too!
The reason for 4* and not 5* is that we would have liked longer at the amazing beach to fully appreciate it. We were not contacted before the trip with any pick up info, we had to contact them. We booked and selected hotel pick up but only on asking were advised it's normally from a central meeting point at a bus stop so not as adverised from hotel but on explaining the need for this they did make an exception for us.
Overall it was a bit pricey considering its a free to visit beach and the paid donation to villa winter should be included with the cost. Would have been nice to stop and interact with the lovely donkeys as we passed.
Appreciated it was a small group tour, we only had 6 people total on ours which was a good size and comfortable van.
A lovely way to spend 4-4.5 hours, spectacular scenery, not a lot of walking so mostly accessible on foot too. Amazing to see and learn about and we would reccomend. Thank you to our fantastic guide who made the day! 😀

Our guide Tim made the trip interesting and spectacular. The views from Cofete beach and Villa Winter were breathtaking from the mountains above. The tour in the villa was interesting and exciting. The beach and the sea of Cofete are spectacular, one must confess. Our adventure was perfect.

The trip with Tim was simply unique and unforgettable! From the first moment you felt that he designed his tours with a lot of heart, passion and joy. His manner is warm, open and authentic – you immediately feel comfortable and in good hands.
The stops he chose were perfectly coordinated, each individual place had its own charm and was brought to life by Tim with exciting, lovingly explained stories. Villa Winter was particularly impressive – with Tim’s explanations this place became a real experience.
The excursion took place in the morning, but it was so intense and fulfilling that it felt like a whole day. The visit to Cofete Beach was the absolute highlight – the view there is just fantastic! The energy you feel in this place is very special, almost indescribable. It’s a place you can only recommend to anyone – you have to experience it yourself to understand how magical it is.
Tim took care of everything, was always attentive, friendly and always with a smile. You can tell he loves what he does – and that’s exactly what makes his tours so special.
Everything was perfectly organized: the times, the stops, the explanations – just all in tune. It was a morning full of impressions, emotions and beautiful moments that will be remembered for a long time.
A huge thank you to Tim for this unforgettable trip – led with so much heart, enthusiasm and passion. If you are looking for a special experience, you are in the right place. Just fantastic! Highly recommended 🌴☀️

Big thanks to Dirk, whose atmospheric playlist contributed to the experience! The Villa Winter should definitely be visited, especially the not freely accessible lower floor has it all! The tour is definitely distressing but highly exciting. However, to increase the chance of stingrays, you should check the tides beforehand and book a slot where you stop at the port at low tide. Unfortunately, at high tide we only saw the shadow of a single ray...Dirk said there were zT up to 20. In fact, I would also book the tour a second time...apart from the terrible villa, the scenery is a true dream! We also made a small photo top with a view of Sotavento. Best tour of the island in my opinion

Unser freundlicher Reiseführer hat uns sehr viel erzählt, über die Insel und auch die Villa!
Da wir am 1. April gefahren sind hat unser Reiseführer lustige Scherze gemacht, das hat die Stimmung zwischen den Fahrgästen deutlich gelockert.
Es wäre schön wenn es mehr solche Touren gäbe!
Reyk hat immer passend zum Thema Musik abgespielt.

Es war unglaublich interessant und Tim war ein super Guide! Vielen Dank für die tolle Zeit! Auch die Schildkröten und Rochen waren mega!
