Other than Gran Canaria, We've been to 3 other Canary Islands over the years, and on each island we have taken a bus tour of the points of interest and attractions. Due to the Covid-19 situation, many of these tours were simply not operating in Gran Canaria. and as we still wanted to explore the island we looked at renting a car and driving around ourselves. Just as we were about to do that, we stumbled upon this VIP tour, and we were able to book at short notice. I'm so glad we did, as it was an unforgettable day. Sergiu was really friendly when he picked us up from the hotel, and made sure the kids were comfortable before setting off. We had a few ideas where we wanted to go, and he made sure these were included in the tour. He had an extensive list of suggestions and we agreed an agenda of how the day would pan out. I have to say Sergui was so knowledgeable about the Island history, culture, flora and fauna, and was able to explain everything in such great detail. My kids still talk about some of the things we saw, and they had such a great time. We were able to take in a local market, understand the different architecture in regions of the island, and behold some of the most incredible views from the island peak. For lunch we were taken to an absolutely amazing restaurant built into the mountainside with a breathtaking view over canyons below. The food was amazing, and with some great local dishes. Moreover, Sergiu is a terrific photographer. He was able to get over 100 brilliant shots of the sights and our family all together. This simply would not be something possible if we'd chosen to rent a car, or even use a traditional bus tour company. I simply cannot recommend this trip highly enough. If you want to see the real Gran Canaria, and learn from an expert, take this VIP tour. You will not regret it. Thank you Sergiu for creating great memories for us.Mette

This was a fabulous tour with an amazing guide. Thank you Sergiu 😊 We were able to see so many different parts of this beautiful Island. We had lunch in a restaurant with a view to die for. Sergiu also send us pictures from our tour. Excellent value for the money.

Sergui was very knowledgeable and showed us an interesting tour of the island. We asked to stay on straight roads since one person in our group gets carsick. It was a lovely day - we especially enjoyed the fruits and peacocks in the botanical gardens.

A great tour. Sergiu is extremely flexible and tries to fit as many highlights as possible. He was on time, we discussed a plan for the day and off we went. We visited Arucas and the beautiful church and streets, then Firgas with the tiled walls and the islands of the canaries along the street. Then we went to Aguate and walked around and explored the botanic gardens, then on to a coffee plantation where we had a tour and did some tasting. After that we went to Artenara and for a great lunch in a cave overlooking the roque nubla. After that we drove to a viewpoint overlooking to roque nubla at sunset which was stunning. The day lasted 12 hours in total and was very good value for money. Sergiu stops at every opportunity whenever there is something to see, he is also very knowledgable about the island and explains everything as he drives along. We got loads of great photos of Gran Canaria and it’s stunning landscapes, we also look forward to seeing those taken by Sergiu of which he must have taken about 500. All in all a perfect day and highly recommendedbreezer_12

A very fruitful and awesome day tour with Sergiu. The itinerary was fully customized to suit our interests and Sergiu even brought us to the hidden gems of Gran Canaria, away from the usual touristic sites and tourist crowd. A photography enthusiast, Sergiu knew exactly which spot to capture nice pictures to leave great memory for our trip. As we only had very limited time in Gran Canaria, Sergiu had done such great job in covering different aspects of Gran Canaria. We now have a fuller picture of what Gran Canaria has to offer, other than just beach and ocean! Highly recommended if you are in Gran Canaria.sandrabS6998II

We had an amazing day with Sergiu! He showed us all the highlights of Gran Canaria and also showed us the hidden gems tourists don’t know about. We had a great lunch at a cave restaurant, where the food was delicious and authentic. We absolutely recommend taking a tour with Sergiu instead of going on a cheap bustour, because it is worth every penny!
