Great day out! Fully recommend! - The guide, Paolo was excellent, cheerful, very knowledgeable with great ability to tell us a lot about the island in several languages. The meal was excellent. The day wasn't rushed - just enough time at each stop. Plenty of opportunities to take photos, relax and look around. We chose the trip too because we were collected from very near to our hotel which is a bit out of the way from the main resorts on Tenerife. Great value for money and we would fully recommend! Thank you! ☺️

Well organised day out to a beautiful island - Questions prior to the trip were answered promptly. On the actual day everything went smoothly and was very well organised. Alesander our tour guide was brilliant, knowledgeable and personable. Aldo the driver made you feel safe and was also very friendly.
Two points to improve on - we would have happily paid a few more Euros to have an authentic dessert with the meal. We wanted to leave a tip but in this cashless era a card reader would have enabled this. Have already recommended to family and we only went today!

Great trip - Great day trip! Must do excursion. From the moment we booked the trip we were impressed. We had quick thoughtful timely responses from the tour company. The pick up was timely and efficient. The ferry ride was lovely and very comfortable. Once at La Gomera, the tour guide Fernando was incredible and talented, with his vast language skills and his knowledge of the history of La Gomera was excellent. Our tour bus driver on La Gomera was also amazing. The beauty and history of the island is must see and hear.

La Gomera Day Trip from Tenerife , an absolutely fantastic day trip. - An absolutely fantastic day trip. A must do when in Tenerife. The scenery around La Gomera is amazing, all in one small island. The numerous stop off for photos and to admire the views really helped to make this a memorable trip. The lunch was the Menu del Dia, Vegtable Soup, Chicken and Rice and ice cream. Pity no chips avaiable as an alternative for kids. The demonstration of using Whistling as a language was amazing. We did not get to see Torre del Conde, a medeival fortification. as specified in the Tour description on-line. However a 10 out of 10!

Wonderful Day - Tour Guide Alex and Driver Gustavo did a fabulous job all day. Alex had a great command of Dutch, French and English that was used throughout the tour. Gustavo's driving skills in the regular sized motor coach were amazing to watch. We had a nice lunch at a local restaurant complete with the "whistling language" demonstration.
The Fred Olsen ferry ride to and from the Island was a great bonus.
I highly recommend this tour

Interesting history, unique whistling language and spectacular scenery. - Wonderful ferry crossing, saw pilot whales. La Gomera is a very beautiful island and a tour is a great way to see the different terrains in one day. Our guide was informative but a bit lack-lustre hence only 4 stars.

Gomeraz - The scenery
The people food was also good and a lot quieter the las americas which was a nice break
A good tour but it won't suit the younger generation who it seems just want to drink

Well worth a visit - Having visited Tenerife many times over the years and watched the ferry depart and arrive in Los Cristianos we decided to pay a visit to La Gomera. Our return trip cost Euro 144.00 for two of us and took circa 50 mins each way. The port of San Sebastian in La Gomera is relatively small with several restaurants and small eateries close at hand to compliment the narrow streets into the town. The town itself is relatively quiet with an historic walk that points out several ancient houses and churches etc.

Great day! - Very pleasant day exploring the island in a 4x4, which allows you to pass through the small, remote villages with narrow streets! Very well organized with guide speaking our language. A change of scenery guaranteed in this green environment!
