Super driver and guide (Diego and Goreti). Spectacular visit.
Fabulous experience. Our guide was Christine she was very knowledgable and courteous and our driver was Omar who was very careful and felt very safe.
A great little evening. We were picked up by bus and travelled to the National Park where we saw 3 experiments which were fun to watch. Then there was a tour (by bus) round the park with a small stop off to see the landscape close up. We then had dinner at the restaurant atop the volcano where our dinner was cooked by the underlying volcano heat. Watching the sunset and visiting the gift shop were the last activities before leaving. Dinner was decent, consisting of salads, various meat selections with vegetables, and a dessert. Wine/ sangria were included. Depending on the number in your party, you may be sat with other people. Since you are not walking far (maximum 2 minutes) any kind of footwear/ clothing is fine. Our tour guides, especially Captain Jack, were knowledgeable and friendly.
The tour itself was incredible and very informative. The guides were fantastic, especially Captain Jack, who really made the experience memorable with his enthusiasm and knowledge. That said, I don't feel the overall package justified the price. While I understand you're paying for the unique experience of having your food cooked using the heat from the volcano, the meal itself was quite mediocre. For over £100, the food was essentially a selection of meats—chicken, pork, and sausage—along with a tomato and a pepper. The portion size was fine, but it didn't feel like a complete meal and was very heavily meat-based, which made it a little underwhelming for the price. On a positive note, drinks were included, and the staff were attentive and more than happy to keep your glass topped up throughout the experience. Overall, visiting the park is an absolute must if you're in Lanzarote, and the tour is well worth doing for the scenery, the fascinating information, and the excellent guides. However, I do think the package would offer much better value if the price were lower or the dining experience better reflected the price paid.
The experience was very good; we went as a family with children, and they had a great time. The guide, Cristina, was very good and kind; she explained everything phenomenally, a 10!!! The dinner was very varied, and they teach you a lot of things that you wouldn't see if you go on your own. Highly recommended!!!!
It was a wonderful experience from the beginning to the end something I will never forget . Wonderful team
Our Tour guide from Wales was funny, engaging and gave lots of history about the Timanfya! (Also did good with the German translation) The food cooked by the heat from the volcano was really tasty and came with some breathtaking Sunset Views. (Did not appeal to my party but there was also a vegetarian option)
Very beautiful experience accompanied by a superb guide "Jack" and the professional driver "Isaac." The site is splendid, the restaurant is well located, and the meal is pleasant while being accompanied by a splendid sunset. Some bus passages are stressful considering the layout of the places.
Great experience. Food was lovely. Pity the weather was not great
The volcanic environment was fascinating and breathtaking. The drive through was hair raising. The restaurant was architecturally interesting and the spectacle of showing off the heat of the volcano was very interesting. What wasn’t good was that there was an hour long pick up process all through Playa Blanca which we then repeated at the end of the night. All other tours I have been on always reverse the order on the return journey so those people collected first are dropped off first so everyone shares equally the time spent picking up and dropping off. The other thing that was disappointing was the food at the restaurant. There wasn’t anything wrong as such, but it was very basic food, there was no real culinary flair. They rely on the spectacle of it being cooked on the volcano (which is cool!) but it could be so much better cuisine. For the money spent I expected better.
