This experience has 100% Gran Canaria stamped all over it. You'll visit the Arehucas Rum Distillery for a tasting session. Then, come face to face with creatures from the deep at Poema del Mar aquarium. There's also free time in the town of Vegueta and Agate.

It all starts at the Poema del Mar, where you'll see creatures from different corners of the world. Head to the Reef, where you'll encounter corals and fish of every colour imaginable. There's also the Deep Sea, with millions of litres of water. All in all, it brings you within touching distance to an enchanting underwater world.

It's then off to Arucas Rum Distillery – the oldest rum-producer in Europe – where there's a tour and tasting experience. And afterwards, you'll be transferred to the historic centre of Vegueta, the birthplace of the capital Las Palmas. Grab some lunch and have a look around its historical mansion houses.

Nat Geo Day Tour: History of Wine in the Canary Islands

Exclusively crafted for National Geographic, this tour offers a deep dive into Canarian wine and its historical significance as a cornerstone of European society from the 15th to the 18th century.

Next, venture to Viñátigo Winery, a family-run estate celebrated for rescuing Tenerife's native grape varieties from near extinction.

Teide and Masca Tour from Southern Tenerife

Teide and Masca Tour from Southern Tenerife

This exclusive tour explores Tenerife's most dramatic inland areas. You'll venture in an eight-seater minivan through the otherworldly landscapes of Teide National Park, admire the panoramas from countless viewpoints and visit the ridge-top hamlet of Masca. Plus, there's traditional Canarian lunch on the menu, too. Arianne, one of our expert local guides, say, ‘I love guiding this tour because it's an overdose of nature, focusing on the island's volcanology, from the past to the present.'Your adventure kicks off by heading south into Teide National Park – a UNESCO World Heritage Site – climbing through a dense pine forest. There's a pit stop at Chirche viewpoint, which often overlooks cloud-shrouded terrain below. The scenery around here is still bursting with greenery. But as we journey deeper into the national park, you'll encounter volcanic landscapes that could easily be on the moon, Venus or Mars. Desolate, rock-strewn badlands. A stop at Roques de Garcia allows you to take some pics near these iconic rock formations, with the volcano's cone in the background.Grab a last look at the lava-scarred landscapes at Poleos viewpoint before dropping into a family-run restaurant for a lunch made from seasonal and locally sourced ingredients. Rounding off the day is a visit to Masca – a hard-to-reach hamlet perched on a ridge in a deep volcanic gorge. Enjoy free time to poke around and take in the vistas.
