7 Hop-On Hop-Off Tours in Canary Islands That You Shouldn't Miss

April 15, 2022 Oliva Fomby

The sun-drenched Canary Islands lie close to North Africa and have an exotic flavor of their own. Hundreds of volcanoes, rolling sand dunes, rich forests and rugged cliffs dapple these seven Atlantic gems. Catch a ferry to Lanzarote. Ride a camel through volcanic Timanfaya National Park. Take on Tenerife, home of Mount Teide, Spain's tallest peak. Romp Grand Canary's beaches or hike La Gomera's Garajonay National Park. More adventures await on tiny El Hierro, verdant La Palma and peaceful Fuerteventura.

We saw a bunch of dolphins. Unfortunately the sea conditions didn't allow to see much more, maybe another day :) The crew is awesome, they explain about the species around and we had a great time! Really recommend ;)

You don't have a guide on the buss to tell you stuff, or that you can ask questions. It is all audio/headset based. The headset you get on the buss is terrible! The buss lack maintenance and a lot of stuff rattles and makes noise. So you can't hear anything on the headset unless you turn it way up, and all of a sudden the "soothing" classical music gets way to high. The seats are uncomfortable! It mostly takes you to shopping places, and I think there where only two places of real historical/cultural value. The cathedral and the archeology museum. It is clear they just found a way to monitize a bus that takes you between shopping places! If you ask me that buss should be free! Damage prevention: if you absolutely insist on this scam, bring your own corded headset!

We visited on a cruise ship, so thought the City Sightseeing tour would be a great chance to see as much of Gran Canaria as possible in a short space of time. Our first experience was not great, despite 2 large cruise ships with potentially lots of business, there was no recognized queuing system in place, and with everyone wanting an upstairs seat some heated "discussions" ensued between potential customers. Staff just kept selling tickets!! Tour itself was ok, but very ordinary with lack of interesting facts and figures in the commentary. Achieved aim of seeing some of the Island, but not sure I would recommend this company.

The tour was great, but it was a bit misleading because we thought that we would drive with the Twizy in the National Park, and that wasn't so. The park was a bus tour that was included. We had a very good guide, he took the time to explane everything nicely. The Twizy is a 2 person vihicle, in theory... or, for two small persons. 2 large persons is tight... (The driverseat gives bad suport for persons with a bad back). But, the overall experience was great, we drove through great scenery's and we enjoyed it!!
