Itinerary
Have you ever being in Grand Canyon (Arizona)? We will visit a place that looks really similar to it.
We will walk around this charming village located in the center of the island. Typical Canarian houses will surprise you.
Pico de Las Nieves is the highest point of the island. It is a scenic overlook with views of the Caldera de Tejeda, where you can also admire one of the most iconic landmarks of Gran Canaria: Roque Nublo.
In Cruz de Tejeda, there are a few local markets. There, we will eat a Canarian sandwich (there are vegetarian options).
Valle de Agaete is located in the north of Gran Canaria. This magical place cultivates coffee and other tropical fruits (like red bananas, papayas, mangos...). In this plantation, we will do a tour around a wine cellar that includes a wine tasting, Canarian tapas and a cup of coffee.

Naty, our guide, was personable, knowledgeable, articulate, and helpful. He gave us a most memorable tour. It was varied and full but also relaxed and fun. We recommend it highly.
We had a wonderful private tour and an excellent overall travel experience. We learned so much about the local culture and history, which made the trip even more meaningful. Our tour guide was outstanding—extremely knowledgeable and genuinely passionate about the island. That passion really brought Gran Canaria to life for us. The island itself is absolutely beautiful. Highly recommended!
This was exactly what we were looking for. An overview of special places on Gran Canaria that are not over run with other visitors. Also insights from a local about customs, holidays, special food and drink. We thoroughly enjoyed the whole day with a new friend.
Our family of 4 loved this tour! It was our favorite day during our week in Gran Canaria. Our tour guide, Naty, is a Gran Canaria local who is well versed on the islands' history. Naty is inquisitive and adaptable, we changed the trajectory of our day based on feedback from our family and catered to our preferences. The day was full of beautiful views, yummy snacks, and plenty of picture-worthy sites. For us, we felt more like travelers, or locals, rather than tourists. This day was far superior to anything we could have researched on our own. If you are someone who is wanting to see multiple sites of the island including the calderas, mountains, rainforests, etc, we would highly recommend. In addition to the tour itself, Naty was kind enough to help us plan the remainder of our trip. He recommended a 5-hour itinerary that was perfect for our remaining day. Overall, he went above and beyond what was expected.
Wonderful driver. Saw so much of the Island. The goal was to avoid the rain which we did! Would highly
Naty was amazing — even with alot of traffic, he made the day smooth, fun, and unforgettable. He showed us the huge volcano crater, cave houses, desert dunes, and the beautiful canal town. Truly the best tour we’ve had! Wishing Naty all the best with his first baby girl arriving soon!
There are surprisingly few private tour options in Grand Canaria - so getting one in itself is a victory. You can go places and see things that even the smaller group busses cannot. But far more than that, Naty is a (well traveled) local boy who understandably loves his beautiful island. He speaks to every stop with insight and heartfelt care, working diligently to customize the tour to the subtle cues of his guests. I’ve taken my family on numerous private tours, but this had to be our favorite. You will be amazed as the different micro-climates change in just a short drive. However, you will be even more impressed with your guide. I could not recommend this company more!
We had such a great tourguide( Nate ) Nathaniel . He was knowledgeable and paced the private tour well We saw a lot of views and vistas as well as indulging in a little of the cultural drinks and coffees We had a wonderful time and squeezed in a lot of sights despite being on a tight schedule because this was a cruise stop Nate made sure we saw a lot but were on time for our departure
This private car tour was phenomenal, well worth the money. Naty was knowledgeable about the island and took us to some places the bus tours can't get to because of the narrow roads. We would definitely do this again with Naty as he will tailor the tour for what you want to see!
Booked last minute as a treat to myself - so glad I did as got to see parts of the island that you don't get to see with the commercial bus tours. It was also so nice to not be made to feel like you had to buy anything either from "artisans". Naty was professional, his ride was comfortable and we packed so much into the day. The beauty of having a private tour is it can be completely tailored to you. Naty is Gran Canarian through and through, his knowledge and passion about the island is in abundance. 1000% would do another tour with Naty. Will be recommending to anyone that mentions they will visiting Gran Canarian.
very informative and thorough tour guide, Local (not many are in Gran Canaria), friendly, passionate about history and community, accomodating... with this tour guide, he offers great tour unlike the many mass-commercial ones. If you want Quality, this is it! Loved his tour: cave tours, mountain peaks, volcanoes, little organic village, bit of architecture, sand dunes - absolutely call him again, when we are back. (with any tour from the island, choose clear/dry, or sunny tours)
Naty is so nice and friendly! He has an outstanding knowledge of the history of Canaries as well as a natural gift of describing and showing the hidden beauty and gems of Gran Canaria. We traveled off-road, away from other tourists, to fully indulge in the amazing nature of the island. We had time to taste local cuisine and do some shopping of local products. Despite some clouds Naty was able to adjust our trip to show us the most stunning views and picturesque towns. I recommend the trip with Naty with all my heart!
Our private tour in Gran Canaria was simply perfect! From start to finish, everything was perfectly organised, individually tailored to our wishes and designed with so much passion and knowledge that we were able to experience the island in a very special way. Our guide was not only extremely friendly and knowledgeable, but also very flexible. We saw breathtaking landscapes, discovered secret spots that we would never have found on our own and gained valuable insights into the culture and history of the island. The trip was pleasant and relaxed, with plenty of opportunities for photo stops and personal experiences. The personal touch was particularly impressive - it felt like we were travelling with a good friend who was showing us around Gran Canaria. This tour was without doubt the highlight of our trip! We can recommend this private tour to anyone who wants to experience the island off the beaten track in an authentic and personalised way. Thank you very much for this unforgettable experience - we will definitely be back!
Definitely do this! The guide is awesome and is a local who knows all the secrets of the island. We thoroughly enjoyed it both the locations, education, and company.
We really enjoyed our tour with @Grancaexperience, Naty was very friendly and knowledgeable about his island. He picked us up on the day from our hotel and because the weather in the north of the island wasn't great, we went to south to the Maspalomas dunes, on to the Fataga and then to the highest point on the island Pico de Las Nieves to see the fantastic views. We went on to Teror for a wander through the town, followed by a trip to the Pico De Bandama. It was a wonderful day, so much so that we booked Naty to take us to the Valle de Agaete and the north of the island including a walk around the old town of Las Palmos on the another day. We would thoroughly recommend him, we saw so much during the tours (too much to list) and learnt a lot about the island. He takes many photographs with his own camera, which he makes available for us to download. Thank you Naty.
We immediately felt at ease with our knowledgeable and friendly guide Natty. He planned a wonderful day for us which included visiting a winery and coffee plantation, the beautiful town of Arucas and its botanic gardens. Everything about our tour was first class; we highly recommend Granca Experience, thank you Natty.
We just returned from an absolutely amazing tour with GrancaExperience. Naty, our guide, was simply outstanding, taking care of us with so much heart and dedication. We were two adults and two small children (2 and 4 years old). Besides being the driver, tour guide, and photographer, he was also like a babysitter, lovingly taking care of our children so that we could relax and enjoy the breathtaking landscapes and experiences. The entire day was perfectly organized, and we felt comfortable and well taken care of throughout. We truly enjoyed the day and can wholeheartedly recommend this tour to everyone, even families with young children – an unforgettable experience!
Such a wonderful experience! Nati was friendly and made us feel like family. He took us all around the island and showed up placed off the usual tourist route. My one big regret is not booking more days with Nati.
Naty made our day! Such a great tour with all the little extras. Special coffee, Wine tasting and Tapas in a magical valley along with spectacular views. Can’t wait to go back!
Loved our tour with Naty across Gran Canaria! Spectacular vista's, beautiful lava beaches, wonderful food and wine, and a full day learning about the island from a well-informed, fun, energetic local who really loves his community. Thanks Naty!
Tues Oct 22 - Las Palmas, Gran Canary, Spain. Our guide, Naty, took photos throughout the day and shared them with us. These are some of my photos, plus some he shared. It has unique features like Maspalmosas Dunes and views they referred to a their version of the Grand Canyon. Great experience! Thanks Naty!
We had a great day with Naty. He is so knowledgable about the island and showed us many wonderful sights. We wouldnt hesitate to book again! Kerry & Kevin, shetland, Scotland
We thoroughly enjoyed our day with Naty so much that we booked him for another tour two days later to see the rest of the island. Not only is he super friendly and kindhearted, but he is so knowledgable about the island. We felt we were in great hands with him as our guide, giving us the detailed history and information about the many sites we saw. He took us to so many special places and gems that we wouldn't have been able to discover on our own. We loved the pictures he also took and sent to us. At the end of the tours, we felt like we made a friend. It's a must-recommend!
We came to the Canary Islands a few days in advance of our cruise. With Naty's help, we fell in love Gran Canaria! It was a pleasure to spend time with an island native who is passionate about his home and loves to show it off. We toured with Naty on two separate days. His tours were imaginative, flexible, and highly personalized to our tastes. From dunes to mountaintops, vineyards to cliffside cave restaurants, he took us to places which only a local would know. Having been on many private tours in many different places, I can say with confidence the experience provided was world-class. Not only would I highly recommend his service, but plan to come back for more.
I have traveled a lot and met guides, but never like Naty. Thank you for your professionalism and your kindness, he took great care of my parents, knows his island very well and allowed us to see unforgettable landscapes. Thank you for everything, it was the best choice I made during the trip. I’ll come back and choose you again.
Top of the Pico de Nubles. Great view. Great tour guy - Naty. The rest of the sights and day were excellent.
What a great day! We booked Naty, as we didn't get the rental car as we wanted, and we didn't regret it. He picked us up at the hotel, and after that the experiences came in a row. We were three generations on tour, from 12 to 85 years old, and everyone had a nice trip. We saw a lot we hadn't otherwise seen, and the twelve-year-old even made it to Primark, Zara and Sephora in Las Palmas. She was delighted, and so were we. I would highly recommend Naty and we will book him again at the next opportunity. He was so knowledgeable, courteous and service minded. We'll be back!
Our driver and guide, Naty, was really outstanding. He is an excellent driver and his vehicle held the 4 of us and our luggage quite well. Our tour had to be cut short due to our flight departure time. We would have greatly enjoyed a full day tour.
This was an excellent day out, I’d highly recommend it. Our guide, Naty, was friendly and knowledgeable - there was a lot about Gran Canaria that we learnt that otherwise we wouldn’t have known. The day trip was a highlight for our holiday, to see the views and visit some of the locations we wouldn’t have been able to find ourselves. We really appreciated the family photos that Naty sent on after the trip, too.
Naty was so knowledgeable about the island and its people. He was completely flexible in following a route that allowed us to see almost all parts of the Gran Canaria. Well timed stops for snacks and lunch were great. Pick up and delivery were flawless and Naty was vary accommodating after we left something in the car and he had to come back to deliver it. A 5 star performance!!
Relaxing and very local in terms of new places seen and food eaten. The towns were gorgeous and the local culture was definitely felt throughout. Naty was very knowledgeable and kind and easy to engage with throughout the trip. Highly recommend if you want to get out of the tourist areas and see more real Gran Canaria life.
Was really great ! Tour guide is very nice and friendly, strongly recommend and sure will do it again :) The tour had beatiful spots and views, took plenty of pictures as well. 10/10 !
Naty was very knowledgeable and helpful. Our tour was restricted due to cloud in the mountains, which was a pity but not Naty's fault. Worth agreeing with him in advance what you are going to see. I found it a little frustrating trying to get him to tell us where we were going and he didn't consult us. Good tour however overall.
Do it, you won’t regret it! My husband and I were in Las Palmas for a few days for a meeting, and only had one day to tour the area. Naty was such a wonderful guide. He showed us a completely different side of the island according to our tastes and preferences. He was prompt and communicated very well via WhatsApp. He stopped at two different locations to pick us up as well as a colleague, and we were on our way. We saw beautiful landscapes, stopped at a winery/coffee plantation, and had some bites along the way. He told us a great deal of history and culture, and stopped at some beautiful towns and villages. Naty was so kind as to take multiple photos of us, which he sent us a few days later. His service was impeccable. He is just a very kind and genuine person. It felt as though a friend was showing us the sights. Such a wonderful experience. Thank you so much Naty!
Naty took us on a fabulous tour of Gran Canaria while we were on the island. He was very flexible with our tour and was happy to spend more time on the things that interested us the most. The part of the island with the caves in the canyon was particularly interesting and he was great about relating his personal experiences of growing up in Gran Canaria! Great Job, highly recommended.
Naty was an excellent tour guide-informative, attentive and pleasant. We enjoyed the tour and appreciated the island even more. He tried and succeeded in giving us a great day.
Naty our guide took us to all the best locations. From the volcano to the beaches to a wonderful winery located up in the mountains it was impossible to pick a favorite. The scenery was incredible and it just kept getting better! This is one trip and tour not to be missed! It was the highlight of our trip and we will always have amazing memories!
Excellent tour, very nice, interesting and thoughtful guide. We appreciated the direct pick up at the port where our cruise ship docked. The guide created a personal experience based on the interests of the four of us and surpassed our expectations. Thank you for sharing your stories, and sharing your beautiful island!
Our tour started on time; Naty picked us up in our hotel and off we went in a nice, clean, air conditioned van. Immediately, we felt at ease since he is quite friendly and courteous, very professional and has a wealth of information. Initially we went to an old volcano near La Palma with incredible views, followed by a visit to Arucas, a small quaint, typical Canarían town with a famous church. We walked the streets and visited a small park and had coffee and pastry. We later went to Agaete Valley where we visited a vineyard/orchard with beautiful views and had a small private cheese and wine tasting. Finally we went to visit a beach with natural pools created by volcanic lava flows from the past. We finished back in our hotel, completely satisfied and well informed. We are glad we took the day and spent spent it with Naty. You can't go wrong. Gracias Naty !!!
Awesome full day tour with Natty. He was able to tailor the day to our interests and was very flexible with our needs and requests. Would highly recommend. The personalized service is unparalleled.
Natty did an outstanding job and I highly recommend him to anyone visiting Gran Canaria. He is personable, professional, and he does a superb job of engaging his customers throughout the tour and experience of learning about Gran Canaria. I most strongly recommend Natty to anyone visiting this island. Best tour guide you could ask for.
Naty is a great guide, knowledgeable, friendly and calm. He showed us lovely places around the island while taking pictures of us as well. We were unlucky with very unusual weather but he adjusted the route on the spot. Had a lovely day, would 100% recommend!
We had such an amazing time with Naty! It was like hanging out with a new friend all day. He was so flexible (and patient) and taught us much about the island and language. He took us to a beautiful winery and many other hidden treasures. 10/10 would recommend. We will be in touch with Naty next time we go to the islands.
We would highly recommend this tour. Natty was an amazing guide. He is clearly very proud and knowledgeable about his birth place. We had the best time ever seeing the real Grand Canaria.
Naty is a great guide with passions of sharing the places that he loves with us. He was on time to pick us up at the cruise port . He was kind and considerate. We visited beautiful landmarks in Las Palmas, also stunning places in the off beaten path . Naty took us to a cafe to enjoy a cup of morning coffee and sweet treat like a local does. It was a delightful experience after a pleasant walk in a charming historical area. We felt that we were visiting Las Palmas with a friend in a relaxing pace , and truly enjoy our day at Las Palmas.
A wonderful tour of the island with Nathanael. Would highly recommend this young man who is very friendly, was on time and took us to some spectacular beauty spots. If you want a special and personalized experience spend the day with Nathanael in Las Palmas. Thank you for the great tour!!
Naty provided us with the perfect introduction to the Gran Canaria island, although a massive island, Naty was able to take us to several of the places of interest to see some of the amazing landscapes, villages, and wineries that the island has to offer. Conducted in a private vehicle, Naty was very personal and showed flexibility in the tour agenda to incorporate aspects that suited us as required. I would highly recommend this tour and would definitely go on another tour with Naty if the opportunity arose.
We only had two full days in Gran Canaria so we scheduled a tour with Naty to see as much of the island as possible and wow did he deliver! He was able to pack a lot in to 7 hours + but never made us feel like we were rushed. We enjoyed ourselves so much we regretted that we didn’t have more days to tour with him. Being a native resident of the area and having lived in other places, he gave us a perspective we don’t often experience. We are looking forward to returning to Gran Canaria and touring with Naty again in the not too distant future.
We really enjoyed the tour, we wouldn’t have done or drive ourselves. It was great to have a private guide esp around the mountain roads. We appreciate the landscape around north part of the Gan Canary island, recommend!
