Description

Discover the historical and natural richness of Gran Canaria in an experience that will take you through the island's most iconic corners.

Explore the largest botanical garden in Spain, a 27-hectare paradise dedicated to the endemic flora of the Canary Islands and the Macaronesian region. Stroll through unique landscapes while immersing yourself in the island's biodiversity.

Wander through the historic center of Las Palmas, a place where history comes alive among its cobblestone streets and colonial houses. Admire iconic monuments such as the Casa de Colón, the Cathedral of Santa Ana, and the Museo Canario, before strolling along the vibrant Calle Mayor de Triana, filled with shops and charm.

This lively area is close to the famous Playa de Las Canteras and the cruise terminal, making it the ideal meeting point and one of the city's tourist epicenters.

Marvel at this impressive ravine, home to pre-Hispanic archaeological remains, endemic flora and fauna, and its unique cave houses, including a hermitage carved into the rock.

Between the municipalities of Ingenio and Agüimes lies one of the largest ravines in the archipelago, the Guayadeque ravine. This site is notable for its pre-Hispanic archaeological remains and valuable endemic flora and fauna. It is also known for the numerous cave houses, including a hermitage carved into the rock.

The historic center of the village of Agüimes is an enveloping and intoxicating environment. Life is an art in Agüimes; every corner of its historic center seems sculpted with a chisel, creating a setting where tradition merges with history. This has forged a network of streets, alleys, squares, and passages, whose beauty is captivating. In the San Antón square, visitors can enjoy the various buildings, such as the houses of farmers and the bourgeoisie, some of which have been converted into artisan workshops.
