Like another world - but note to self take a waterproof! - Amazing place, like a totally different world and Juan was a great guide & provided some fascinating facts & stories about the history of the national park & La Gomera. Would highly recommend this trip BUT you need to take waterproofs and jumper as it’s cold up there and the day we went there was torrential rain and we didnt even have a coat & were drenched!!

Great introduction to Garajonay - Juan is a knowledgeable and friendly guide. Highly recommended. Pickup was punctual. The drive was safe and smooth.
He displayed good care of the environment — what I noticed and appreciated was that how he’d pick up a small piece of trash in the national park, store it, and then put it into a bin when we reached one. We all need to show some love about the environment and this rainforest in La Gomera.
There may not be a large variety of flora and fauna here, but Juan made sure to cover all the little details about the trees and leaves on the way. Absolutely impressive that Juan knows almost everything. And following him I could feel safe that I wouldn’t get lost.
It’s an easy introduction of about 7km hike, all well-paved condition. And if you like it you can always come back to hike in your own afterwards.

Great Hike - Our guide Juan was really informative throughout our trip. He was very considerate to our needs, assessing our ability then planing our walk accordingly. His botanical knowledge was amazing, as was his English. We learnt a lot about the Island and had a great trip.
Thankyou

Excellent hike in the rain forest - Juan was quite an engaging and personable guide. His local, botanical and trail knowledge was exceptional. He had special areas on the trail we took to convey stories and botanical insights. There were six of us on the tour. Unfortunately, some participants were there for a workout and not an emersion into the beauty of the rain forest. Juan was completely understandable and colorful. I highly recommend this tour

Couldn't have asked for more - Juan was a minefield of information and answered pretty much all of our questions before we asked him. He knew lots about history and nature and customs. My daughter and I were the only ones on the trip and we were picked up on time at Hotel Gran Rey. It was so nice to be up high in nature and with great views. We wore walking boots which we were glad of as the paths can be wet and slippery. Having gained some knowledge I feel confident we can now walk in the Garajonay National Park unguided in the future. We learnt a lot. Thank you.
