Must do in Gran Canaria - We were brought by car to the start. You can make it as challenging as you like. Pablo is the best guide ever. We would have never found those trails without him.

Great morning with well informed and mindful guide - The tour was well organised and uncomplicated with a very well informed guide who knew so much from his personal experiences growing up in the region. He took us to places we would never have discovered without his knowledge. He was sensitive to our limitations and easy to get on with. He also gave really good recommendations for great local food and other places to explore. A lovely day

Knowledgable, trustworthy and friendly guide for a mountain biking adventure in the mountains of Gran Canaria - Pablo is a sympathetic, relaxed and knowledgeable person who made this day trip a thrilling and insightful adventure. Not completely secure or experienced with mountainbiking, it was good to have a reliable guide. We learned about trusting the bike and the terrain, as well as some of the history of Gran Canaria’s stunning nature, which showed us as tourists, that the beach is by far not the only thing this place has to offer. We felt like we were in very good hands and he had other offers that will be something to look forward to on our next trip to the island. Highly Recommended!

Exhilarating (but not too risky) with a fantastic guide in a stunning part of the island with hidden gems - l'd say I'm a beginner/intermediate mountain biker, so was a bit apprehensive about the experience. But Pablo immediately put me at ease. We scoped out tricky sections first and he coached me brilliantly through the technicalities. There was no pressure to take any risks (I walked a couple of sections), but by the end I felt far more confident. It was truly exhilarating! As well as his coaching ability, Pablo was a fantastic guide. So much knowledge of the history of the area and the environment. You wouldn't find cool hidden caves without him! His passion for nature and adventure really shone through. It was fascinating. To top it all off, he literally went the extra mile(s) to drop me at a more convenient bus station. Gracias Pablo for showing me a beautiful part of the island with such fun and kindness! I've definitely got my eye on his coasteering, canyoning and kayaking expeditions Don't hesitate to book an experience with Pablo. He's the best!

Great Experience - Grest Views - Great Guide - Comming from Northern Germany we don’t know such terrain as we found there. It was so fun going up and of course down. Pablo was a great guide, stopping every now and then to explain things e.g. about the landscape we‘ve seen. If you want to book this experience: Don‘t be scared about any scary parts! Even if there is something scary, you can always get of the bike and carefully go down. Pablo is very observant so can’t make any mistakes.

An introduction to mountain biking and plenty of opportunity to see the island from the comfort of a bike. GREAT for experts too - Now this is a perfect way to see the island from 2 wheels.. a wonderful introduction and training exercise in a quiet nature park, before you embark on a downhill route, through stunning mountain scenery. Pablo demonstrates expertise, guidance and fun, seamlessly. I hadn't been on a bike for 7 years and managed this, lots of fun challenges, forests, beautiful island scenery and a spectacular surprise along the way!!! You will be blown away by the surprise. And don't worry .. all equipment is provided!!! Plenty of time to rest, a short walk up into a forest, where Pablo demonstrates his love of his island to a point where you can't help BE a part of nature..yet with an exhilarating experience at the same time. Pablo's partner Sonia is an absolute wonder..she shares Pablo's passion for her island, is an expert in her own right.. and provides THE BEST PICNICS ever! She is brilliant and I can't wait to go hiking with her next time I am in Gran Canaria. BRILLIANT ACTIVITY.. and such great value for money!!

Gran Canaria MTB Ride - The people who organized this activity were extremely friendly and helpful in making sure that I knew where to arrive and that I got there ok. They were also very knowledgeable during the ride pointing out different things and giving information about the local area. The only thing I would point out is that this excursion is not for mediocre bike riders. I ride a mountain bike frequently, but I had quite a bit of difficulty navigating the path, which is steep both up and down and rocky. In my opinion, this excursion is best for someone who enjoys difficult mountain biking as it is not a leisurely ride.

Awesome experience in beautiful landscapes!!! - I was a bit afraid about the route but actually it was really nice. It's not hard and the views and the stops for explaining the history of the canary culture and nature is amazing. The bikes are good and the reduced group always with Pablo checking the safety make you feel very protected. The final stop in the beautiful village of Firgas make the last surprise of the tour. Thank you very much Pablo!!
