Excellent tour, highly recommended - Brilliant tour guide Sebastian who never runs out of energy and keeps giving his all to us even after 6 hours! A real asset to Gran Canaria. Made sure every single person was ok and felt welcome every minute of the day.

Great value informative tour. - Simon the tour guide was excellent as was our coach driver. Very informative especially around the history of the island and its flora and fauna. Nothing felt rushed we had lots of opportunities to take photos and enjoy the amazing views. Our lunch stop off was fabulous value for money at 13E for 3 courses including a drink !! I would not ordinarily be drawn to a tour however I cannot recommend this one enough as an overview of Gran Canarias varied landscapes.

Highland - It was a last minute activity! They called me about the activity and I was allowed to come along without any problems! I was very happy that I could come along. It was definitely recommended! Simon has told you everything you need to know about this island! The view was certainly beautiful and there was a big difference between South and North. Lunch for 13 euros was definitely recommended! Thank you !

Great Day Out! - Brilliant trip, thoroughly enjoyable from start to finish. Our tour guide spoke English, Spanish, and German fluently, and was a fountain of knowledge on the history and geography of Gran Canaria and its sister islands. The mountain roads are not for the faint-hearted, but our bus driver managed them expertly. I would highly recommend this tour. It's a great way to see the mountains and beautiful villages of Gran Canaria.

Amazing scenery Amazing day out. - This was a fantastic day out. Lovely villages and stunning scenery in the mountains. Three course meal was super value fo 13 Euro. Our guide Simon spoke three languages and was superb in looking after the.group whilst informing us about the history, fauna and flora of the island. Lovely comfortable air conditioned coach with plenty of toilet stops. My elderly parents and teenage son also loved it. If you do anything on Gran Canaria : do this! Amazing!

Super cat and Mogan market - highly recommend! - We first booked a jeep trip expecting that we would have forward facing seats, as on rough terrain you need to be able to support yourself by pushing back into the seat. We got inward facing seats in the back. My husband and I weren't happy with that. Then the driver said they were picking up another two people to sit in the back. These two were not skinny as my husband and I are not. They squeezed in with us. None of us were happy about it and I made the decision that we could not take 6 hours - some off-road in those cramped uncomfortable seats. So we asked to get taken back to our hotel and left the trip. We had only paid the deposit. We informed the staff at our reception that the trip was not suitable for older, big people. The owner contacted us and offered us another trip to use the deposit. We chose the catamaran one. It was very enjoyable and the staff were fun and helpful. Only downside was the bus driver was the most unhelpful person I've ever met in tourism. He came to arranged hotel to pick us up, we went to the bus and he decided we weren't the ones he's suppose to pick up. So we had to argue our way on. On the way back we got on the bus and he told us to get off - that it wasn't our bus. We had to get help from other staff at the catamaran so we could get on. There were some rude, loud Brits on bus when we got on in morning, sitting behind him and criticizing his driving - maybe he thought we were with them. We sat with them and chatted - he probably thought we were the parents of the rowdy couple! All up it was an excellent trip on the cat and we saw heaps of dolphins. We appreciate being offered another trip, when first one didn't suit our 60 year old bodies!

Very good - If you like long bus rides, it's a good choice. I would have preferred to lie on the beach but overall it was very nice, the view was unforgettable and the aloe vera plantation. The food is debatable. I would have preferred to stay somewhere else for longer and find something to eat myself.

Fantastic experience - Absolutely fantastic excursion- Simon the tour guide was so knowledgeable and very friendly, the scenery is stunning and so lovely to see parts of the island in contrast - I would however say that some of the stops are very short indeed and a little rushed, also was advertised that we would visit a rum distillery but we visited an Aloe Vera plantation instead, other than that well worth doing - the coach ride itself on narrow winding lanes up a mountain certainly makes for an adventure- not for the faint hearted

Not what we expected or wanted - We were really looking forward to the Cumbre tour because it included the Arucas rum distillery tour, it quickly became apparent this was not part of the tour. Why is the operator selling a tour highlighting the rum tasting and trip to a distillery. We did this tour on a Thursday, distillery is closed Saturday thru Monday, when is it included? I have messaged the tour operator separately regarding all of the above, I'm still waiting on a response.
