We pick you up from your hotel in Las Palmas, or from the port if you are on the island for a single day off a cruise ship. The tour is guided in Polish.<\/p>\n<h2>What you see along the way<\/h2>\n<p>The first stop is the <strong>Maspalomas dunes<\/strong>. Kilometres of sand running straight down to the ocean look like a piece of the Sahara attached to a resort, and this is where most people take their first photos.<\/p>\n<p>Next comes <strong>Puerto de Mog\u00e1n<\/strong>, known as the Canarian Venice. Canals, small bridges, whitewashed houses and bougainvillea on the walls. There is free time here for a walk, a coffee or souvenirs, so you are not looking at it through a coach window.<\/p>\n<p>The western stretch is the rawest part of the route. We stop at <strong>Los Azulejos<\/strong>, rocks streaked green, turquoise and rust by the minerals in the volcanic stone. Then comes <strong>Mirador del Balc\u00f3n<\/strong>, where the cliffs drop vertically into the ocean and, on a clear day, Tenerife is visible on the horizon.<\/p>\n<p>The day ends in the green north, in the <strong>Agaete<\/strong> valley, home to the only commercial coffee plantation in Europe. We walk through the plantation and sit down to a <strong>tasting of local products served as tapas<\/strong>, which is a far better ending than one more viewpoint.<\/p>\n<h2>Who this is for (and who it is not)<\/h2>\n<p>It is a good choice if you are short on time and want to see the different sides of the island in one day. It also works for cruise passengers, since we collect you straight from the port in Las Palmas. The tour suits travellers of any age.<\/p>\n<p>If you would rather spend the whole day in one place, or you do not travel well on winding mountain roads, consider something shorter. This is a round-island drive, so a fair share of the day is spent between stops.<\/p>\n<h2>Practical information<\/h2>\n<p>We collect you <strong>from your hotel or nearby in Las Palmas<\/strong>, and from the port if you arrive by cruise ship. Pickup takes place <strong>between 8:00 and 8:45<\/strong> depending on your location, and the exact time and meeting point are printed on your ticket.<\/p>\n<p>Cancellation is free up to 72 hours before the start, with a 100% refund.<\/p>\n<p>Please note that this tour is guided in Polish. If you need another language, message us before booking and we will tell you what we can arrange.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A full-day loop around Gran Canaria with pickup in Las Palmas, including from the cruise port.
