Las Palmas Cultural

Soak up the rich history and vibrant culture of Las Palmas' Old Town on this guided tour of Vegueta. Led by a knowledgeable local guide, this excursion promises an unforgettable journey through cobblestone alleys and centuries-old architecture. Ana, one of our expert local guides, says, 'One of my favourite things to do is just to ‘get lost' in the old town, strolling through the lanes at your own pace. Vegueta is so fashionable and atmospheric, it's like being in a movie.'Begin your adventure with a guided exploration of Vegueta's charming streets. Learn fascinating stories and discover hidden gems as you wander through this historic district. Step into the past at the renowned Museo Canario, where ancient artifacts and insights into the island's pre-Hispanic heritage await. Ana adds, 'without the generosity of Dr. Gregorio Chil y Naranjo, who willed his home as a place to house the museum, these precious artifacts might not be available for public viewing today.'Continue your cultural immersion with a visit to the Diocesan Museum, showcasing Gran Canaria's religious and artistic heritage. Marvel at the architectural masterpiece of the Cathedral of Santa Ana before enjoying some free time to explore Vegueta at your own pace. Stroll along its bustling streets, browse through quaint shops and boutiques, and perhaps pick up souvenirs or local crafts to commemorate your visit.

Roque Nublo Walk with Tapas in Fataga Village

This tour offers a great opportunity to explore some of Gran Canaria's most fascinating natural treasures and landscapes. Your guide will accompany you to the Degollada de la Yegua viewpoint and then for a close-up visit to the towering Roque Nublo. Ana Isabel, one of our expert local guides, says, ‘Roque Nublo is a volcanic rock formation standing at 1,813 metres above sea level. The name means “clouded rock” because it is often shrouded in mist and clouds. Its striking appearance and panoramic vistas are a big part of the appeal.'First, you'll head towards the centre of the island, taking in the mesmerising landscapes of the Degollada de la Yegua, where you'll stop for a photo opportunity. This mountain pass sits at around 1,000 metres overlooking a 15km-long canyon with smooth sides and sharp, almost vertical ridges. Next, we'll make our way to the star of the tour, Roque Nublo. This mighty monolith towers over 70 metres straight up, formed by the ancient volcanic activity that produced the island itself.At Roque Nublo, you'll have free time to enjoy an easy hike to get a closer look at the rock and appreciate the 360-degree views from one of the highest points on the island. After the walk, it's time to relax and refuel with some tasty Canarian specialties in Fataga, a whitewashed village with traditional houses and a church. You can stroll around and explore its bougainvillea-clad and plant-packed alleys before we head back.

Gran Canaria - Day Tour to Puerto de Mogan by Boat

Puerto de Mogan is said by many to be the most beautiful town in Gran Canaria, and once you've set eyes on its toytown houses, it's hard to argue. This tour brings you by boat, docking right in the heart of the harbour after a scenic approach, so you avoid long walks from out-of-town parking lots. Maria, one of our expert local guides, says, ‘Mogan market is a classic in Gran Canaria, known all over the island. And to arrive in the town by boat gives you that a spine-tingling sensation you get in anticipation of a special experience.'Sailing from Puerto Rico harbour, you'll glide along the rocky, volcanic coastline of the south before arriving at Puerto de Mogan. Cupped into cliffs at the mouth of a steep valley, it's known as ‘Little Venice' for its canal, blue-and-yellow-trimmed white cottages, wrought iron balconies and flower-festooned lanes. Traits that have made it very popular.Arriving by boat, you're in the middle of all the action straight away. Only we bring you to and from Puerto de Mogan by sea. Antonio, another of our local guides, say, ‘If you arrive by coach, not only is the journey less scenic but you have to walk a fair bit to get to the waterfront.' You'll have free time to poke around the stalls selling typical Canarian products or just relax at one of the many terraced cafés overlooking the yachts. Oh, and there's also an enticing sandy beach to stretch out on, too.
