Marcelo showed us possible places to look for birds and was really informative. He even rang a Birding friend to check if he could guide us.We learned lots about the island and its history. A great day's walking and we were informed of the pick up time on booking.

Incredible hike and guide

Morgan_A, Jun 2026
This was truly and incredible and challenging tour. We went a bit off the beaten path but this may change due to changing circumstances about what’s allowed as many of the islands preserved areas are expanding. Still the guide was extremely knowledgeable and passionate about the island and the nature. The sights were absolutely breathtaking and challenging to access and leave so definitely wear good shoes and a hat and sometimes depending on the conditions it could be windy and chilly up above. Would absolutely do this again or one of their other tours. Guide could also speak numerous languages which made for a very diverse audience while still being a small and intimate group.

Enjoyable hike

A lovely hike, not too strenuous, with a nice friendly group and a Great guide ! Thoroughly enjoyed it !

Fantastic cliff and volcano walk

Jacqueline_J, Oct 2024
This was a great half day walk in the north of the island. Pick up was very close to my hotel and there were not too many people to pick up. Laurent was our guide, and he was good at explaining what we could see on the walk, and generally good company too. The Corona Volcano was shrouded in cloud when we visited but we were able to see enough to get the idea. We also sampled prickly pears, picked and peeled for us by Laurent, and then walked along the cliff-tops which was spectacular. (Don't go if afraid of heights. It was all perfectly safe, but extremely windy.) There was a second group with different language. I think this meant the guides were able to make sense of the pick ups and drop offs to prevent us having to endure too many. Great organisation.

An enjoyable experience...

An enjoyable experience and learnt a lot about Volcanic landscapes. The views along the coast were spectacular. Wear walking boots and warm clothes.

Can greatly recommend this walk!

The view from the Famara Cliff was incredible! Looking down on the Corona crater was amazing. The group was very friendly and we had fun. The tour guide was very knowledgable about the flora and fauna and volcanic features. The walk was perfect for my level. The guide did drive a little too fast for my liking and would take his hands of the wheel too often and look behind at the passengers. That made me uneasy. But that was the only negative! Wonderful day

Amazing views and walking

buen ambiente , mejores vistas buena caminata y todo bien explicado por el guia el higo chungo muy bueno

Un paseo mágico

Argentina_D, Feb 2022
Altamente recomendado. Una caminada educacional y relajada. Nuestro guía, Marcelo, nos ha proporcionado una amplia información de la flora, cultura y historia general del local, con muchos detalles interesantes. Antes de empezar el paseo paramos en un jameos y conocemos como se forman estos huecos increíbles. Subimos hasta el cumbre del volcán la Corona, contemplamos la exuberante vista y la magia del volcán. Seguimos caminando hasta el Risco de Famara y pudimos presenciar un regalo de la naturaleza, sin palabras. Un paseo mágico.
