Book this tour! - Inés and Juanjo are absolutely amazing at what they do. The entire day was more of a full experience than just a tour, enriched by their passion as locals as well as a true love for the environment and history of the island.
The transport (Lupita) was exceptionally comfortable and we were regaled with wonderful stories and music throughout our journey.
The hike is made all the easier knowing Inés and Juanjo have travelled these paths thousands of times and know the most appropriate and safest routes to the most beautiful locations according to guests abilities.
The picnic was a highlight for sure, having reached one of the most beautiful locations we have ever seen and is just by itself an amazing experience.
Each stop along the way only made the tour even better, with rich history and scenery hand picked to leave us with lasting memories of the true beauty of Gran Canaria.
We would 100% recommend this tour to anyone that wants to see Gran Canaria at its finest, and we hope to return to try some more of their different tours, which all sound amazing.
To top it all off, Inés and Juanjo are some of the nicest people you will ever meet.

Fun and informative tour for a taste of Gran Canaria in a nutshell - Ines and Juan are two Gran Canaria locals, very passionate and knowledgeable about their island. The tour ticked all the boxes and exceeded my expectations! We hiked, we admired landscapes, we listened to music, had a gourmet picnic lunch, and learned loads about Gran Canaria - all in the company of fun but very professional and experienced guides who did their best to make our tiny group feel like family.
If, like me, you only have a short time to see Gran Canaria, this chill, fun, and informative tour is a great option! And if you have more time, it might be a good way to start exploring the island. Either way, I recommend this tour and Sky Rebels.

Wonderful tour of Gran Canaria. - What a fantastic tour by two local Canarians. Inez and Juan and not forgetting Lupita were entertaining , informative and great fun.
They collected us and returned us to our cruise ship promptly. In between from North to South we saw amazing scenery, clouds, plants, biodiversity.
The lunch was excellent and tailored to our requirements.
We totally recommend this tour.

Roque Nublo is a must - Inés and Juanjo are a lovely couple passionate about their country. The way they (including Lupita) bring you along the tour is exceptional. They share a lot of Canarian history with us and we learn way more than expected on our tour to Roque Nublo and the other places on the tour. I would definitely book them next time we visit Gran Canaria and recommend their well prepared tours to family and friends. Thanks Inés for the exceptional lunch provided on the tour with the wine and the chosen place to eat. This tour is worth every cent.

One of the best tours we’ve been on - We were lucky and we were the only 2 people on the tour therefore it made the experience even better. The whole day was planned out really well and Ines and Juanjo were very knowledgeable and gave us lots of local information. Despite a slight traffic jam at Roque Nublo (which Ines and Juanjo sorted out!) it was smooth running.
The lunch that was provided was homemade and tasty with local produce.
Lupita was very comfortable and kept us safe.
We would highly recommend going on tours with Sky Rebels!

A magical island tour - We had a fabulous - magical in fact ;-) -day out with Ines and Juan (and Lupita!) visiting Roque Nublo and many other local sites around the island (highest point, local village, etc). The team are friendly and professional, and so knowledgable about the island. I was very glad that Juan was driving those skinny mountain roads! Incredible views and inspiring beauty. We stopped in the forest for a lunch prepared by Ines - what a feast of local dishes! I highly recommend this tour guide duo, it really is the best way to see the island. Thank you both for a wonderful experience.

Views from the highest points of Gran Canaria - I wholeheartedly echo the sentiments expressed in the numerous 5-star reviews for Sky Rebels' tours led by Juanjo and Inés (and Lupita). While these day trips may come at a slightly higher cost compared to others on Gran Canaria, the immersive and captivating experiences they offer are worth every cent.
As a solo traveler, I joined both the Roque Nublo and Unesco Sacred Mountains tours, and my satisfaction was beyond measure. The small and intimate group setting, coupled with Inés' delectable homemade tapas-style lunch, added an extra layer of delight to the journey. From breathtaking vistas to the couple's profound knowledge of the island and its indigenous people, the Canarios, which they generously shared throughout the tours, every element was meticulously curated.
The pacing was also 'Just Right,' leaving me with a sole 'complaint'—the missed opportunity to partake in more tours. Without a doubt, I will be returning for additional adventures with Sky Rebels in the future.
