Firgas, Tejeda, Guayadeque - VIP-tur Gran Canaria

I expected something more from the excursion. Guide and driver, Suso and Carmelo, very good. The route leaves a lot to be desired. They stop to eat at a roadside bar, forcing you to eat the menu there, you have no option to choose where to eat. Then they seat you with people you don't know, instead of being able to sit alone with your partner. The stops they make in between are at places with no interest at all. Either they don't take advantage of the towns they show or there are towns with more interest. Teror, Arica... The excursion felt very tedious to me.

This trip was ok. I was hoping to get more detail info on the history of Gran Canaria, but I did not get that! Carmela was very friendly. I did sometimes feel that due to him having to translate for three languages, the English translation sometimes got lost for me . However the trips showed some amazing sites of the island. My only criticism was where we stopped and ate lunch. The options for the menu was not great. And I got the impression that the food was prepared a while before we arrived. The limited options was not great for me.

Overall we liked it, it was a pity at the lunch stop to be all running and counted time! We thought it would be in a more populated place, where I would give "a little bit" of 30min after the meal. But went to lunch and come away. But overall yes, it was satisfying

I liked what I found, since the tiles that were allusive the islands that make up the archipelago of the Canary Islands, in sumo is very well achieved.

Julia and Marcelo were great, a very human and attentive staff. We had a wonderful day, learning about the island's culture and discovering extraordinary landscapes. Julia is an exceptional speaker and Marcelo is an outstanding driver.

I have always wanted to explore Gran Canaria but the roads terrify me so we booked the bus tour. Collected at 7.40am in Mogan and got back around 5.30pm so it is a long day (first pick up and drop off) We kept the same seats on the bus all day which was brilliant because I wanted to sit drivers side to be away from the edge. Each stop we had 20-30 minutes and that was perfect. The scenery is incredible. Stopped for lunch but you can bring your own (food was ok, not great and a set menu) Really great day, so glad we did it

Wonderful scenery and excellent local information from Carmella. The bus driver was very skilled going around the winding, steep mountain roads, with deep ravines and beautiful volcanic peaks. Would have preferred more time in Firgas to have a coffee and sit and appreciate the idyllic location. Loved the cave house and would have liked to have learned more about the family and how they have adapted to modern living whilst keeping their traditiomal family home. We enjoyed all of the stops. Thank you.

Early start from puerto Mogan but well worth missing breakfast for! Lovely trip hosted by a Canadian guy who passionately loves his home country! (Sorry forgot his name) . Very informative, lots of surprises around every sharp bend , the driver was calm and very experienced, got a few claps and cheers for his exceptional skills on very tricky roads ! such a Beautiful country with so many different climates along the way , vast array of flora and forna, even had fog and rain when we visited Firgas , then blazing sunshine on the way back . The “meal” At a restaurant was basic but welcomed after the morning trip and good value for €15 with wine or beer thrown in , Plenty of stops to take in the views, the Aloe farm was informative but felt like a hard sell , the lady hosting it was a little intimidating. The final village was stunning with time to look around. The travel company provided a mini bus for those the furthest away on the way back to puerto mogan and Puerto Rico to get home quicker , rather than having to drop ppl off in Masspalomass , much quicker and much appreciated * . Altho it would make sense to do this on the way there instead of spending two hours before the tour starts picking people up on the way ., we had had no breakfast as the restaurants at our hotels weren’t open till 8am so we were hungry and needed the loo! (Please note!) it’s the only down side tbh! Arrange a packed breakfast the night before ! Lovely trip , beautiful island , well worth the money !

If you want to discover the island, without the hassle of renting a car and driving yourself, then this tour is highly recommended! And lunch in between was decent for the price you paid for it. So are you in doubt? Just do it!

The day is long but very well organised. You are on and off the bus a lot. You spend just the right amount of time at each stop. The guide and coach driver are very informative. Most importantly toilet breaks are planned in. All in all a good way to see the south and north side if the island.
