Worth the trip! - Would recommend the trip. Good guide who alternated between English, Spanish, (another language, sorry cannot remember) to accomodate all parties that were there. We had plenty of time at each location. Would actually do the tour again, next time i go to GC.

Grand Canaria day trip of fun - Fantastic guide Sebastian and Jose driver. The speaker system was little lacking especially at the back of the bus. Sebastian was a wonderful guide. Very knowledgeable and fun to be around. Recommend this trip but if you have a fear of heights sit in an aisle seat, as the road to the top of the volcano is a little scary to say the least. Thanks guys for a fantastic day x

Las Palmas old town - The old town in Las Palmas was definitely worth a visit. Interesting and quaint streets with the church/ cathedral and Christopher Columbus museum. Then grab a coffee and watch the world go by.

Great tour around the north of the island - Very informative and detailed tour. You’re given a specific time in each location. Tour guide worked extremely hard to give out information about areas in five languages! Was super friendly also. Would recommend to see a different part of the island

Great driver and guide - Well set up but the final stop at the beach area is too short. Good driver and brilliant guide who pointed a lot out

Good day out - A good way to see Las Palmas and surroundings, finding places you would not find on your own. Pick up at your hotel, with everything organised very well. Be warned that an hour into the trip we were still circling Playa des Ingles picking up people. Driver was Fran & our guide was Julia. She has a huge amount of information, delivered very ably in English, German & Spanish. Sufficient to say she never stopped talking from we had completed the pick ups until it was time to leave everyone home again. (Perhaps a little too much) Very impressed that when the coach developed a fault approaching the botanic gardens, by the time we had done the visit, a replacement coach had arrived for us - very slick. Too be critical, by the time we had done the walking tour(with commentary) at Vegueta, there was little time to see around on your own. Bandama & Botanic Gardens are what they say on the tin. Free time around Las Arenas shopping centre / Las Canteras beach didn’t really work for us. Shopping Centre is a sprawling area, just like any other centre, and the beach is small, rough & rocky. A bit of guidance on lunch spots in the area would be useful - we had a terrible experience in shopping centre restaurant

Too much time spent on bus, content and sites were not interesting or impressive. - Too much time spent on bus, content and sites were not interesting or impressive. It was confusing with 4 different languages to cover. Botanical Garden was disappointing with most of plants and flowers can be seen through out the island. This was not really a guided tour since we were dropped off and to roam around without much suggestion or info. We do not recommend this tour.

Do not book this tour, save your time and money. Do a better tour. - Don't book this tour. The tour operator cancelled our booking the night before our tour, saying they could not accommodate due to capacity issues. We had booked this trip a month before and for them to say this the night before indicates they either didn't bother doing the tour or took a different group that booked last minute instead. Absolute time wasters AVOID. Those looking for a similar tour can find a good one we found that has more than a handful of reviews like this one does, that other tour was great, and they laughed about us booking this tour originally as the tour guide here is known for being useless.

Sad - Tour did not take place due to low attendance. Very sad, I was really looking forward to it. 48 h before the money still debited and 24 h before tour cancelled. Didn't you already know very well that this is not going to happen?
