Detailed description

Convertible day trip on Gran Canaria - from Maspalomas up into the mountains

The convertible day trip on Gran Canaria is one of the things you need to have done on the island. Not just because you get to see so much of Gran Canaria. Driving around the island in a convertible may even leave you with memories of warm winds, of the view to the sea, of a feeling of freedom and of plenty of fun driving on winding mountain roads. The Gran Canaria convertible tour is a unique holiday experience you won’t find anywhere else. From Maspalomas you will conquer the ‘Big Mountains’ and the centre of Gran Canaria in the brand new Beetle Convertibles. You will drive along scenic roads in a small group from the south to the fascinating centre of the island - past barren volcanic terrain to the lush vegetation of palm plantations and pine forests. In addition to this impressive contrast, the sightseeing tour from the south of the island provides sensational views with a great deal of fun driving.

The cabriolet tour from Maspalomas goes up to an altitude of more than 1,500 meters - and as a result you will visit some of the most spectacular vantage points on the whole island. Look across valleys and mountains, discover remote villages and imposing reservoirs. In short: things you wouldn't necessarily expect if you only saw the beaches on the south coast. Drive through fragrant pine forests, look across the famous valley of 1,000 palm trees and look forward to an informative visit to an aloe vera plantation. The convertible day trip on Gran Canaria also includes a picnic in a typical Canary Island restaurant to keep your strength up. A succulent sandwich and your choice of drink (beer, water, tea, coffee or a soft drink) are included in this.

In contrast to other island excursions on Gran Canaria, the convertible day trip gives you the opportunity to get very close to the landscape and experience it even more intensively. You just get closer to the island in the open vehicles. The professional local guides will take you to important stops and enhance the trip with interesting information about Gran Canaria. Up to 5 people can join the Gran Canaria tour in a convertible. This means that if families, groups or friends book, they will also ride together in one vehicle and enjoy this day trip as a group. The only important thing to bear in mind is that the driver has a valid driving licence (class B). The fantastic family tour from Maspalomas is a recommended adventure for adults and teenagers and also for children aged 4 and above.
