Such a lovely trip. Starting from north, reaching the highest points on the island, to all the way to the south dunes. The guide Pavel was super nice, explaining history and stopping to some of the coolest places. The driver Salvator, also a super nice person. Tips: bring clothes for cold weather, on the volcano. Totally worth it and recommend it.Luisa_S

Absolutely a trip You MUST take in Gran Canaria!!!!! I don’t know what our guide Pavel ate for breakfast but his energy, charisma, enthusiasm and smile, they've been contagious all day! We had the opportunity to be a small group of 8 people, and Pavel made it look like a private tour! lots of information, beautiful places, a short stop for a delicious coffee and snack, the recommendation for the traditional food was perfect. Thanks also to the driver for always being understanding and patient! I highly recommend this tour to anyone, it will be the best choice! PS: Pavel, put some leaflets around town to let the tourists know about this wonderful trip, we accidentally found it on TripAdvisor and we’re so glad we did!!!! All the best from Angelo and Silvia! #keepthemasksoff 👊👌😆
