Incredible trip, if you’re looking at booking this I promise you will not be disappointed. - Fantastic trip. Maria was amazing and taught us lots about the Island and its history. It was nice to have some traditional Canarian food (one of us is very fussy but even he loved it) the beef dish is beautiful. The gardens we visited were absolutely gorgeous. Thank you for an incredible trip. Very long but very worth it.

Exciting day trip to La Gomer - Great trip with Tamarin to La Gomera. We were picked up near the hotel in a Jeep, which drove to a center, where we were distributed in different jeeps according to which language the guide spoke. Then we drove to the ferry.
At La Gomera we were driven around to many different sights, where we got an excellent explanation of our English guide. The island is very beautiful and special with an original vegetation.
In the middle of the trip we ate at a restaurant - included in the price. Here the special flute language was demonstrated.
Finally we had about 1 hour on our own in the largest city, San Sebastian. After that we sailed back to Tenerife and were driven back to the hotel.
The guide was really good and gave the opportunity for questions. The driver was also good. She spoke English and also spoke regularly.
A lovely day at La Gomera can be recommended.

Exceptional La Gomera Excursion - The excursion was amazing thanks to our knowledgeable guide, Laura and our trusted bus driver, Pepe. Laura knew the history of the island as well as knowledgeable about the flora and fauna. She had an easy going personality making her approachable for conversation and questions. Pepe steered the bus around the mountainous curves so efficiently that no one left with white knuckles from holding on too tightly. The sites were breathtaking, especially in the National Park. I highly recommend this Atlantico excursion and their guide, Laura.

Great Tour and a great tour guide - This trip was excellent. Get picked up close to hotel and taken to the ferry port at Los Cristianos about an hour crossing and then onto another bus for the tour. Made very interesting by our tour guide Enrique De Lorenzo Cabrera, a lovely guy who made the tour much fun. We had a very nice 3 course lunch with wine half way round before continuing the tour. It is a long day, about 11 hours door to door but very much worth it. We booked our tour in Costa Adeje at The Jet Ski Centre & Excursions a nice guy took the booking, however he might try to get you to pay more for a "Faster Ferry Crossing" Don't take it, we did and found out later all the crossings are fast.

A well worthwhile day trip. DO NOT FORGET YOUR PASSPORT AND WARM COAT . - A very good trip to take. Following a 50 mins boat trip the journey by coach around the island was brilliant. Many stops along the way for photo shoots and a pleasant stop for a 3 course lunch. Do take along a warm coat as the stop to view the forests can be quire chilly. On return to the port area do have a walk around this charming little square.

Best way to see La Gomera. - We went with an outfit called Get Holiday. They will tell you that there is parking at the Los Cristianos ferry terminal, but we didn't see any, so let them pick you up at your hotel or take a cab to the terminal. The trip itself was great. This is realistically the only way to see La Gomera in one day; you won't be able to quickly find everything worth looking at yourself, and the roads are windy and treacherous. And you only need one day, because it's a small island. Very interesting microclimates that change dramatically as you go from the south to the center to the north. Bring a jacket! It is cold and foggy (and often rainy) up in the mountains. Basso is a good guide who speaks excellent English.

La Gomera - Not a great trip. Lunch was terrible and tour guide had to deal with to many languages, which made the narrative very hard to follow. You need to be prepared to spend a lot of time on the coach.

Would not recommend - My husband and myself have been to Adeje several times and always fancied going on a day trip to the small island of La Gomera. I wasn't going to do a review as I thought we had just been unfortunate with the weather and guide but after an awful day out on La Gomera we heard from other couples, after our trip, that they had also not enjoyed the trip.
The majority of the day is spent on a coach for which the island is not suitable for, the road around the national park is narrow and does not accommodate a coach and another vehicle coming the opposite way. The lunch was awful with some very questionable entertainment from the owners son, our guide did know what she was talking about but, for some reason, felt she had to give all the information in every language she could speak although there was only 2 or 3 different nationalities on the trip.
This is a trip I will not be recommending or rebooking

Cheekiness, rip-off... TOUR GUIDE Chantal could NOT ENGLISH. Lunch cheekiness... - We booked a GERMAN TRAVEL GUIDE for 98 euros. Unfortunately, you cannot give a STAR. All the time loud Spanish, bad English and Chantal, which NO GERMAN can speak, reads down everything incomprehensibly and Googles words. Lunch at La Zula. Unnecessary environment. Cabbage soup, ghastly chicken with frozen vegetables. Our tour group were the ONLY GUESTS! Although the place was very large and empty, we were put close together. An absolute cheekiness and rip-off! Unfortunately, we couldn't settle down. I did this tour for the 4th time but nothing like this has ever happened to me.
