Really fun and interesting - Brilliant tour. Our guide Cynthia was entertaining and knowledgeable. We learnt a lot and it was really interesting. At the end we tasted banana jam (one just banana, one with aloe vera and one with something I've forgotten, but it was the nicest). Also banana wine, liqueur and a non-alcoholic drink. Then mojo sauces as well. I would highly recommend it and it's not expensive to visit.

Interesting and nice place to visit - Maria presented the tour for us. She is very pationate, welcoming and in a typical good mood of canarian People. We got a great time discovering the process of growing of banana plants from baby plant to grown up froot. Besides the property is located in a very nice place close to the see with beautifull sight seing view. I recommend this visit, it's worth visiting for one hour and half.
