Get to know Gran Canaria in a day

Booking option: Gran Canaria Island Tour Day Trip

The ultimate overview of Gran Canaria! This is an absolute must on your list of things to do in Mallorca. The Gran Canaria excursion starts in the south of the island and leads you once counterclockwise to the four coasts. We start in the fishing village of Puerto de Mogán, where we are greeted by colourful bougainvilleas, colonial architecture and narrow canals. The full day tour through Gran Canaria leads through volcanic landscapes to the picturesque mountain Los Azulejos and from there to the tomato centre of Gran Canaria: San Nicolás.

In the port of Las Nieves in Agaete you can admire the remains of the emblematic "Finger of God" and eat in a typical fish restaurant at a reasonable price. There will also be time for a walk along the coast before the island tour goes north via Gáldar and Guía to Arucas. Here are not only the roots of the Canary Islands, but also the banana plantations. We plan a stay in the capital Las Palmas, where you can stroll along the famous beach of Las Canteras and get an idea of the Alfredo Kraus Auditorium before the coffee break. The island tour goes along the east coast back to the south and your hotel.

Detailed description

The top Island Tour in Gran Canaria

Leave no stone unturned as you make your way along to the prettiest places in Gran Canaria. If time is not on your side, that’s not a problem. Spend a day in Gran Canaria and check out the best things to see and do on the island. In just a day, you hop on the bus tour and get acquainted with the must-see spots! This roundtrip in Gran Canaria takes you to the top places to see and you get treated to a fair share of history en route. The island bus tour kicks off in the south of Gran Canaria in San Augustin and Playa de Inglés. From there, the tourist bus heads southwest to the rocky and curious coast.

On the Gran Canaria island tour to the four coasts we pass the fishing village Puerto de Mogán known as "Little Venice", pass the tomato centre San Nicolas, the beautiful cliffs of the west coast and finally reach the port of Las Nieves in Agaete. There once stood the landmark known as the "Finger of God". A storm caused the symbolic rock formation to collapse. After lunch in a local fish restaurant you can take a walk to the natural pools of Puerto de las Nieves. 

On the way along the north coast you can expect many great views and Gran Canaria's beautiful nature, which will inspire you with its scenic contrasts. The highlight is the visit to Las Palmas. In the island capital you can explore the most beautiful corners of the city, go for a walk at the Las Canteras city beach and visit the auditorium "Alfredo Kraus". After visiting Las Palmas and its beautiful surroundings, the Gran Canaria island tour takes you back south to your hotel. On the last section you will see some highlights of the east coast, which is especially memorable with its extensive beaches.

The island tour Gran Canaria is a perfect opportunity to get an overview of the island and to discover new destinations for further excursions on the sunny place

Exhausting but good

To be on the road for a whole day is very exhausting - but it has still brought a lot of obstacles and we can only recommend this tour.

Anstrengend aber gut

Einen ganzen Tag unterwegs zu sein ist doch sehr anstrengend- aber es hat dennoch sehr viele Einfrücke gebracht und wir können diese Tour nur empfehlen.

Practically

Since we do not know ourselves there, we have chosen this bus tour. The roads are very steep and winding, so we preferred to sit in the bus. The guide spoke three languages and has a lot to tell. The stations were very nice. But we already knew Las Palmas and Cantaras. The price was good for a whole day.

Praktisch

Da wir uns selbst dort nicht auskennen haben wir diese Bustour gewählt. Die Straßen sind sehr steil und kurvig, da haben wir lieber im Bus gesessen. Der Guide konnte drei Sprachen und hat viel erzählt. Die Stationen waren sehr schön. Las Palmas und Cantaras kannten wir aber schon. Der Preis war für einen ganzen Tag gut.
