“Our horseback riding the first time, excellent anx great experience. Lovely horses, helpful staff, good timr”
Drive your own buggy on Gran Canaria’s south slopes, mix road and off-road to Fataga and Ayagaures, with hotel pickup included.
“Despite some other reviews, we couldn't fault the trip from start to finish. Picked up outside our hotel on time, only a short amount of time doing paperwork and explaining the buggies and we were off. It was extremely fun throughout, with a good mix of road and off-road mountain driving with some fantastic views! Our guide was always keeping an eye on the group and making sure everyone was happy and was alot of fun aswell. The terrain isn't for people who want a gentle ride which was perfect for us as we wanted to get stuck in. Considering the cost of some other activities or hiring the likes…”
1.5-hour beginner horseback ride in Gran Canaria with helmets included, quiet horses, and east-coast sea plus mountain views. From $40.
Coast cruise from Puerto de Mogán to Taurito caves, then 2 hours of Canary wine and local food on board in a small group.
“This is a great trip. An hour cruising along the coast, with lots of interesting information about the area, followed by two hours of local food and wine pairing. Ruben was really good at explaining everything and answering questions. Everything about it was excellent, from the spotless boat to the friendliness and helpfulness of our hosts, and the quality of the food and drink. Would highly recommend!”
Drive a Yamaha VX jetski along Gran Canaria from Maspalomas, with guided sights, dune stops, and free hotel pickup for about $85.
“Absolutely amazing experience, Fast Jet Skis and very safe. You go really far and they actually let you enjoy yourself. 100% worth the money.”
A small-group 1-hour Segway ride through Maspalomas, along the Paseo Costa promenade, with dune nature reserve views and a Playa del Inglés break.
“We had a fantastic segway tour with Alonzo. Fluent in English and Spanish (and I believe Italian too amongst others).”
Glide through Playa del Ingles and Maspalomas Dunes on a 1-hour two-seat e-scooter tour with a guide, helmet, and viewpoints.
“We did the 4 hour bike coast tour with Lorenzo yesterday. It was amazing!! We were taken to so many secluded beaches we would never have found on our own. Stopped for the best cappuccino we’ve ever tasted on the way there and a fab smoothie on the way back. We were lucky to get into the banana plantation and the guy took time to explain to us how it all worked. Definitely the best way to get around the island and see all the sites. The bikes are easy to use. Lorenzo is so nice and knowledgeable. We now have lots of places we want to visit. 5 star…”
Glide by Segway through Maspalomas dunes and Playa del Inglés with a local guide, helmets and pads included, small group, great value.
“Very friendly provider, took enough time for us, explanations and practice rides were not included in the booked time, the tour itself even went beyond the booked time towards the end (almost two hours in total including instructions), very good explanations of the area in clear, understandable English, tour guide and his wife (they run the shop together) incredibly friendly and accommodating, protective equipment (helmet, arm and knee pads), guide took lots of pictures and videos of us with our own cell phones, no extra costs, even got a drink during a short break. It's a shame that we didn't do the tour right at the start of the holiday,…”
Every kind of day on the island, and the best of each.
