What to do and see in La Palma, Canary Islands: The Best Sightseeing Tours
La Palma is a pristine paradise, set against a backdrop of volcanic landscape. Perhaps the best way to experience La Palma’s rugged beauty is a hike through the Caldera de Taburiente National Park or the narrow gorges of Los Tilos. The cool waters of natural swimming hole Charco Azul beckon on a steamy day. The dark sands of Playa Nueva are great for sunbathing and cat naps.

Overall Ratings
5.0 based on 7 reviews
The Mirador del Roque de los Muchachos is the quintessential viewpoint of the Island and is located at the highest point of La Palma at 2,426 meters above sea level. The name of Roque de Los Muchachos comes from the shape of it, as they are a series of small roques about 3 meters high, which resemble a group of boys. From there you can see an impressive view of the National Park of La Caldera de Taburiente, where depending on the weather conditions it is possible to see the other three islands of the province (Tenerife, La Gomera and El Hierro).

Our third trip with the Fancy 2 crew and every one has been a great experience. We've seen dolphins every time and twice we've been lucky enough to spend time with the pilot whales. The crew are friendly, knowledgeable and really look after you. They keep everyone fed and watered throughout the trip and are always on hand to point out the wildlife.

We really enjoyed this trip. It was fun and extremely informative and we learnt a lot about the island. All the other buggies where driven by Spainish but we had a lovely Dutch translator called Rhianna who explained lots of things to us at each stop. Highly recommended
10. La Palma SMART - The 3 best routes for a short break !!
In addition to a mild climate throughout the year, ideal for hiking, La Palma offers an impressive nature with diverse landscapes. While the other Canary Islands are partly characterized by mass tourism, La Palma still retains its originality of yesteryear. It is not only about its beautiful landscapes but also villages and towns keep its rural spirit intact and its people enjoy leisurely weather, transmitting the spell of their good living to the visitor. Our hiking programs are designed to fully enjoy all this. La Palma has an excellent network of trails that run through impressive landscape scenarios. Our proposal of hiking over several days will take you walking through the island of a hotel to the next, discovering the beauties of the island individually, without having to adjust to the rhythm of a preset group.

We did 4 hiking tours with this company. The pick ups from the hotel were very punctual. We were organised into groups by preferred language. We had three different guides and they were all knowledgeable about the island, geology, flora and fauna and astronomy. All were competent in at least two languages. The hikes were well paced and the descriptions of difficulty were we believed accurate. The guides were able to pace the walks to accommodate everyone, fast and slow. It was fantastic not to have to worry about transport to and from the walks as many are linear and from previous holidays we have sometimes found it hard to find taxis in out of the way places. Most walks ended with a drink in a bar and the opportunity to meet hikers from several countries. I will return to La Palma and will definitely contact this company. Only one suggestion. Please set up a branch in El Hierro.
