Do you know that feeling when you wake up and, before you hit the ground with your feet, you already know that the day is going to be good? That is what happens to us Canarian residents living in an eternal summer and being surrounded by fields and beaches. You too can have that perfect moment of joy and motivation by planning excursions in Gran Canaria.
It is possible because the same thing happens when you come on vacation. The simple difference between seeing the island and living it is signing up for excursions in Gran Canaria to make your visit an amazing adventure.
If you want to get to know the island from another point of view, the following 8 excursions in Gran Canaria that we present to you will help you make your trip memorable.
To begin with, we have thought of adding a visit to the most beautiful coastal towns on the island to your agenda. An excursion in Gran Canaria that will take you through a relic from the Sahara, the Maspalomas Dunes; our little Venice, Puerto de Mogán; the Maspalomas Lighthouse, and you will have a choice: visit the Mogán Mall or Amadores Beach. We anticipate that both options are “the correct one”.
This outdoor experience is perfect for a group experience. Book now a Friday of your stay to take a walk through our beloved Venice.
In this second excursion in Gran Canaria we propose something different. For 8 hours, we will go around the most attractive Canarian dams.
You will discover the hidden beauty of the island and you will be able to verify for yourself the natural wealth that it possesses. We will pass through the Barrio de San Juan and the Barrio de San Francisco, in Telde. We will continue through the Caldera de los Marteles, one of the most characteristic nature reserves on the island, until we reach the highest viewpoint in Gran Canaria: Pico de las Nieves.
At this point, we will make a stop because we know that it will be inevitable to take your mobile to take photos of the magnificent panorama that you will find. From here, you will be able to see the wonderful Roque Nublo which is symbolic of the island. Moreover, the magic of this landscape does not end here. If the weather conditions allow it, you will be able to see the largest volcano in Spain in the background: Mount Teide in Tenerife.
Our next stop will be at Cruz de Tejeda. Upon arrival you will know that you are located in the very center of the island. You will be surrounded by a mountainous landscape and fresh air. We will continue the road to Fataga, a town where time has not passed because it still has its traditional Canarian appearance and a valley with palm trees worth admiring.
Finally, before returning to the hotel, we will pass by the Degollada de las Yeguas Viewpoint which, despite its name, the viewpoint provides extraordinary views of the so-called World Biosphere Reserve.
