Transport
Der Ausflug war wunderschön und eine gute Gelegenheit, die Insel einmal im Ganzen zu sehen. Natürlich alles ein bisschen zügiger, als wenn man alleine unterwegs wäre. Das Mittagessen (Vorspeise+Huhn/Fisch+Eis) war lecker und alle wurden satt. Waren mit 8 Personen in einem klimatisierten Bulli unterwegs und hatten eine wundervolle Zeit. Danke an unseren Guide Ingo :)
Inland Fuerteventura is all volcanic craters and barren mountains. On this exclusive small-group tour, you'll venture into the heart of the island for a glimpse of the impressive volcanic formations, with stops along the way in the villages of Ajuy, Betancuria and Pajara villages. Fran, one of our local guides, says, ‘The story of modern Fuerteventura began in Betancuria. It was founded in 1404 by French explore Jean de Béthencourt, after he conquered the island from the aborigines, and has the oldest church on the island.'
Travelling in eight-seater minivans, you'll be able to access narrow roads and country tracks that big coaches can't reach. What's more, group numbers are kept low so that you can enjoy full flexibility and decide where you'd most like to visit from various options. Your guide will fill you in on everything there is to know about Fuerteventura as you contemplate its eroded mountains, desolate lava fields and remote villages.
Highlights include a short walk to the Vallebron viewpoint and the west-coast fishing village of Ajuy, which is where Jean de Béthencourt first landed. You'll visit volcanic caves here – the oldest natural formations in the Canary Islands. There's also a stroll along the mountain path between Pajara and Betancuria, the triple lighthouse of El Cotillo and the sand dunes of Corralejo. To top it off, a traditional Canarian lunch, made from locally sourced ingredients, is served at a family-owned restaurant along the way.
