definitely worth it - An excellent way to get to know the north of the island. We were able to visit different climatic zones of the island in a matter of hours, from the interesting villages around small volcanoes like Aruca (with its fascinating neo-gothic cathedral), to banana, coffee, grape and citrus plantations in the Berrazales valley. We tasted different cheeses accompanied by a glass of wine of our choice (7.50 eur p.p extra), and a delicious coffee and cake, all locally produced. And the town of Agaete with its fascinating scenery of cliffs and crystal clear waters. Completely recommended! especially thanks to the magnificent driver and Fran our fantastic guide, who was always full of knowledge on every subject and his humor kept us smiling.

Excellent - Fantastic experience, allows you to discover an essential aspect of Gran Canaria: the production of high quality products: the cheese and coffee tasting helps to recognize them. In addition to visiting very beautiful places, ranging from the fertile valley to the beautiful port of Agaete The guide Fran is very professional and gives good details about each place visited and answers every doubt or question that helps you better understand the uniqueness of the area. I emphasize punctuality and that, being a small group, the day is taken advantage of. 100% recommended !

Great introduction to the north of Gran Canaria - Skilled driver and friendly tour guide. Lots of toilet stops factored in. Good to see areas in the north of the island briefly - Agaete, Figras, Aruca. Tasted 4 local cheese accompanied by a small glass of wine if your choice (red or white) -extra €7.50 per person. Delicious! Went to quickly look at a banana plantation, and visited an area where they grow oranges, coffee beans and some grapes. Tasted coffee and homemade cake there. Great for a brief intro to the north. Would recommend it!

Tour worth doing - This tour is different from the rest of the tours and is worth doing. Firgas and Arucas are quaint little towns and very beautiful. The banana plantation is a unique experience. We didn't do the optional cheese/wine tasting, so cannot comment on that experience. The coffee tasting is included and is a nice experience. The orchard in which this experience takes place is beautiful. We enjoyed taking pics in the fruit trees. The peaks of Agaete are impressive and so is the natural swimming pool on the beach.

Good, but a couple of disappoinments - Bananas, quaint villages, sweeping views, good guide. Improve: 1) clean the inside of the bus windows before picking up guests. 2) have the guide wear a cap or bright shirt so they are easy to find while wandering in towns. 3) Let guests know in advance if one of the locations on the itinerary is cancelled - in my case I really wanted to see Agaete and the west coast, but it was not possible because the town was having its big annual feast - common knowledge. I would have rescheduled to the next week.
