They forgot about me, so they've never shown up although I've waited for an hour and called them. I've read about similar experiences of other reviewers but couldn't believe they would do it again.

The tour is OK, but description include "Taste traditional apple cider in the apple-growing region of Valleseco". It's not happen. The guide is perfect.

A general view of the island, highly recommended, despite the terrible heat we suffered today. Impressive views and nice villages.
Pauline_S, Jun 2025
Well organized, a good mix of nature and town! Safe and comfortable bus. Didn’t feel rushed. Worth it!!
Elizabeth_B, Apr 2025
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.
Marsha_H, Mar 2025
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.

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.
Philomena_B, Mar 2025
Well worth the price for a great day out. Views and scenery amazing. Tour guide, Lola, was very friendly and helpful.
Sara_C, Mar 2025
This day trip covers several areas and villages, all really interesting and picturesque. Take layers for change of weather at altitude. Lovely coffee stop and a later lunch stop. Lots of photo opportunities. Lovely tour guide Laura abd driver Rafael.
Leigh_B, Feb 2025
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.

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.
Margaret_C, Jan 2025
Our guide Vanessa was knowledgeable and professional. She explained the different types of volcanic activity of each region Bandama, Pico De
Nieves etc. before introducing us to the breathtaking views of the region. She gave us enough time to walk around each place and appreciate the culture e.g the town of Teror. I would definitely recommend Vanessa and Viator for anyone who wants to visit Gran Canaria.
George_R, Jan 2025
Interesting and informative. Good guide and driver. Confusion at morning pickup. Waited in very good time at the designated ‘Bus Stop’ but was not met. Rescued by a manager and driven to join the group. Told I should have been directly on opposite side of road at a red tourist stop. Perhaps the guide or driver could have looked out for a single man and seen me.
Barb_S, Jan 2025
Great trip with fantastic views. Difficult to understand the lady tour guide though. Walked down to get back on the bus but the bus had started driving back up.
Alexander_H, Aug 2024
Great way to spend a day when you are on vacation at Gran Canaria. You will see many interesting places like exploded vulcano crater, highest peak of the island, nice mountains views and panoramas, nice villages with intetesting history, drive through country mountains roads, and learn many interesting things about island from great guide

It was a life-long experience that was worth the money, with great guider and driver, but I regret missing the chance to buy the video photos.
Tanya_B, Nov 2023
Bruno was the BEST tour guide!! Thank you so much for a wonderful day out exploring all the beautiful areas of Gran Canaria! This tour was the highlight of my trip!
Marguerite_T, Nov 2023
We really enjoyed this trip, the guide was brilliant, interesting and funny, he made a great effort for us, thanks Bruno.
Kateryna_K, Nov 2023
The excursion was enjoyable and absolutely not tiring - would fit to people of any age. The guide provided the information which didn't overloaded me and his English was understandable and extemely clear that is unsual for tourism representatives of this area.
Many applause to the company and the guide that people with special needs (the other people in group) had the possibility to join this excursion and were full of attention of the guide.
This is the first time I see such consciousness.
Bravo!

I had Mr. Fran as my tourguide. I have totally noting to complaint about this tour. Pick up was on time and the sides visited was pretty interesting. Beside the bushfire’s alert on Gran Canaria and that the Pico del Nieve could not be climbed due this sircumstances, I have seen pretty much of the interior of the island of Grand Canaria. I would for sure recommend this tour with this company!
Magda_F, Jul 2023
Our guide Selene was great, pick up was on time.it was well organized ( participants were informed day earlier that tour will be modified due to fire incident day before which caused closure of some roads). Selene is very friendly,knowledgeable, made sure everyone had a great time. Our driver Ester was expertly navigating narrow winding roads to small villages.We got to try famous local delicacies in different villages ,including tasting of local Canarian rum with honey - delicious! Fun day overall!
Paul_T, Jun 2023
Incredible locations and fantastic views.
Tour guide Selene amazing organised and very helpful 🤓🤟.
Marc_W, Apr 2023
Nice relaxed day…. Guide and driver were very professional and made it a nice day out 😊 well worth the money
Kira_H, Mar 2023
Loved it. Vera was such a great guide and the bus was comfortable. Lunch at the optional restaurant was delicious too!
Sharon_J, Feb 2023
We had come from the arid South of the island to Las Palmas. We were impressed with the city but didn’t really appreciate what Gran Canaria’s has to offer in the way of dramatic scenic rural areas and charming towns.
The tour was well paced and Fran our guide very knowledgeable and interesting. Food and bathroom breaks were well timed and the smaller bus and tour size made the tour comfortable and flexible. Our driver was also to be commended on his skill in driving the winding roads and finding parking at various viewpoints.
We highly recommend this tour!
Ellen_L, Feb 2023
A great trip in the mountains even the weather was not so good. We learned a lot, but in between there was too much talking from the guide when you heard everything in Spanish and English. Longer breaks would have been nice
LouisCharles_C, Feb 2023
Wonderful driver, Amazing and knowledgeable tour guide!
This tour was fabulous and so worth it! Really well organized and learned so much!
Really enjoyable as we had only a small group. Plenty of time to enjoy every stops!
Make sure to take amazing breathtaking pictures and enjoy it with your own eyes!
Chris_o, Feb 2023
Barbara and Vera make a great team!
Excellent tour with lots of information and a fantastic tour guide.
I would recommend this to anybody who visits Gran Canaria.
The view of Roque Nublo was stunning, also lunch in the village was delicious.
Thanks guys

Great experience. Viator has managed our demands proffesionally. The tour operator owner, took from his personal time to accomodate us with some special requests, because one of our friends had to be in town for an important meeting earlier, so Bruno came and picked him up during the tour and drove him to the hotel. The driver ? 10/10, and trust me there are some really crazy roads up in the mountains. Our guide Selene was sensational, quality of informations, friendlieness, capacity of reading the group needs, good humour, vibe, everything on point !!!
Grant_M, Jan 2023
A chance to see the stunning scenery in the centre of Gran Canaia, expertly led and well driven. Prompt pick up, excellent choice of locations, including the beautiful village of Teror. Thoroughly recommend this day tour, especially if you get the brilliant Selene, as your guide.
