Beskrivning

Northern Gran Canaria is all non-stop natural beauty. This tour delves into this often-overlooked part of the island's treasure chest. You'll visit Spain's largest botanic garden and the home of the national fruit - a banana farm. Explorers sailing to the Americas would take green ones that ripened en route, exporting so many to Britain that Canary Wharf in London was named after the island.

First up is a deep dive into this island's continent-like biodiversity. Planted on a hillside, Jardin Canario is the largest botanical park in Spain. It boasts more than 2,000 species of plants, 500 of which are endemic to the island. Tour the tree-lined grounds and learn all about the initiative's conservation efforts and environmental education programme. Next up is a banana farm, where you'll discover 13 varieties of plantain from all over the world. You'll get to taste some of the organic goodies here, like freshly picked fruits, preserves and juices.

The final stop will include a guided tour of charming Firgas village, a cluster of narrow streets lined with traditional Canarian houses. Explore the photogenic streets with your guide, who will explain the presence of so many fountains in this little town. Afterwards, you'll have free time to discover more of the delights of Firgas at your own pace, perhaps stop for a leisurely coffee or look for souvenirs.

    => Bananenplantage: versprochen wurde, wir sehen 13 verschiedene Bananensorten, gezeigt wurden 3, zur Degu nur 1 Sorte = normalste. Ist nur 1 Event zum Verkaufen der Produkte im Shop. => Allgemein hat man zu wenig Zeit zum Geniessen => Vorschlag: Tour umdrehen = Firgas (Laden Kaffee offen), Bananenplantage und am Schluss Botanischer Garten

    Picked up on time yet rushed throughout the whole trip, from 08:00 till we was dropped off at 15:30 we wasn't allowed any food (not enough time) or drink, not allowed to eat or drink anything on the coach and it was an extremely hot day, as I said not enough time given at any of the places to go and get any food or even find a shop that we could buy water from and drink before getting back on the coach, total waste of a day and couldn't wait to get back to the hotel

Blue Bird Ticket
Excursions & day trips

Blue Bird Ticket

Cruising off the coast of the Gran Canaria has always been fun but this boat tour makes it even better. You can now hop off at any of the ports the Blue Bird boat docks in and wander around before hopping back on when the next one sails into port.The itineraries vary and cover four coastal towns in the southwest – Arguineguin, Anfi del Mar, Puerto Rico and Puerto de Mogan. So you can tick off sleepy fishing villages like Anfi, bubbly seaside spots like Puerto Rico and Arguineguin or more dashing towns like Puerto de Mogan.Each has its own charm – and nowhere can the colour of a town be better appreciated than during the weekly market. In Arguineguin, it's every Tuesday, while in Puerto de Mogan, there are two. Monday is the farmers' market while Friday sees the town come to life for the ethnic and gastronomic market – African drums, wooden wind chimes and Canarian cheeses are among the stall buys.
