Entertaining and informative easy hike lead by friendly locals - Friendly local guides lead you trough a jungle like area up to a waterfall, entertaining and filled with interesting stories about the island, inhabitants and the local nature. Rather easy hike for hikers, but not a sunday stroll ( bring your hiking shoes). Transport from and back to hotel included.

Very nice trip in fantastic surroundings! - Entertaining and knowledgeable guides who safely piloted us through lush rainforest and over steep mountains. Smooth pick-up and drop-off. Fun to experience a more unknown part of beautiful Gran Canaria. Recommended!

Fun small group tour - This was a special tour, with great energy, and a fun story was told that included you. The small group concept is great, and I’m really glad there were no commercial stops at all! If you are an avid naturalist then perhaps the level of detail could have been greater. For me this was more a positive than a negative.

This is a MUST experience! - This tour was THE highlight of my 5 day visit to Gran Canaria! Ines and Juanjo have created something quite magical with their tour; a great combination of natural and cultural history with a mischievous sense of quirky silliness that was really enjoyed. The hike itself was beautiful and the plants; flowers and waterfalls breath-taking. I felt super relaxed after this experience even though we had trekked 8km. If I return to Gran Carnaria, I will definitely be booking another of their tours! Can't recommend this experience enough! Gracias!

If there is one tour guide you have to choose it's this one - This is our second year together in Gran Canaria and we had such a great time last year with Ines and Juan (and Lupita!) we intentionally looked to do another tour with the Sky Rebels team. As always we had a fantastic time, the hike wasn't difficult, the scenery and the forest itself is incredible to walk through, we learnt a tonne about the island and Ines and Juan made it hilarious throughout! We can't wait to go back next year and we'll definitely be doing another tour with them!
