Hiking in Waterfalls & Rainforest with local guides: Sky Rebels
Description
Please let us introduce ourselves: we are Inés & Juanjo, 2 authentic native guides in Gran Canaria. With us, you are going to discover and experience the beauty of this island with real "local eyes". For us, Barranco de los Cernícalos, is not only one of the most beautiful hiking paths in the island: is a very important part of our own life, as our relatives have lived here and for us it is like a "playground". We will go on a hike where you will discover our endemic flora and fauna in a setting that looks like something out of a fairy tale. With us, you will not only learn about "technical information", but also how local people have been living and adapted their way of life in this place, you will understand how the resources of this area were exploited: water, materials to create tools, plants (beyond their medicinal use). But, above all, you'll have a great time. There are plenty of surprises and fun in store for you along the way - are you ready for the adventure?

A great fun trip hosted by Ines and Juanjo a very knowledgeable couple whose love for their island shines though. We had a lovely time and learnt a lot. Thank you
Thank you very much for your review! Inés & Juanjo
It's been an amazing experience. We never imagined that in Gran Canaria these landscapes could exist. Thank you so much, guys, for making our vacation such an unforgettable experience!
gracias!
Friendly local guides lead you trough a jungle like area up to a waterfall, entertaining and filled with interesting stories about the island, inhabitants and the local nature. Rather easy hike for hikers, but not a sunday stroll ( bring your hiking shoes). Transport from and back to hotel included.
thank you!
Entertaining and knowledgeable guides who safely piloted us through lush rainforest and over steep mountains. Smooth pick-up and drop-off. Fun to experience a more unknown part of beautiful Gran Canaria. Recommended!
tack so mycket!!
This was a special tour, with great energy, and a fun story was told that included you. The small group concept is great, and I’m really glad there were no commercial stops at all! If you are an avid naturalist then perhaps the level of detail could have been greater. For me this was more a positive than a negative.
thank you!
Great tour with two local, very experienced, friendly and funny guides. You will learn about some of Gran Canarias history, vegetation and animals with the waterfalls as highlights.
Thank you very much! Inés & Juanjo
The guides Juan and Inez know a lot about the neighbourghood and share the history of the island with us. They also know a lot about the plants. I would recommended these tour, it is beautiful and very nice
Thanks again! See you! Inés & Juanjo
This tour was THE highlight of my 5 day visit to Gran Canaria! Ines and Juanjo have created something quite magical with their tour; a great combination of natural and cultural history with a mischievous sense of quirky silliness that was really enjoyed. The hike itself was beautiful and the plants; flowers and waterfalls breath-taking. I felt super relaxed after this experience even though we had trekked 8km. If I return to Gran Carnaria, I will definitely be booking another of their tours! Can't recommend this experience enough! Gracias!
Thank you very much Paul! We hope to see you back soon!
Our guides Inez and Wan were so fun and informative. We were engaged the entire hike, their love of the island is evident in all they do! Thanks for a great trip!!! Drew and Sheri
Thank you so much Drew and Sheri! Lupita, Juanjo and Inés
Interesting hike through a plain. Completely new impressions of Gran Canaria. Hiking guide with very competent explanations, helpful in difficult passages.
Danke schön! Wir freuen uns! Lupita, Juanjo und Inés
