Spectacular - Tour lasting half an hour that explains the banana industry in detail and quite politely. An experience that I recommend not skipping if you are going to spend a few days in Gran Canaria.

10/10 - The visit was phenomenal, the red-haired guide was charming and fun. A very educational tour, it flew by. The rest of the staff are very friendly and charming. They have a wide variety of products, both native and exclusive, both in the tasting and in the store. Beautiful, we will return.
