What our customers ask about Canary Islands Tours for Solo Travelers
What types of accommodation can I expect in the Canary Islands?
The Canary Islands offer diverse lodging options that reflect local character. On Gran Canaria, guests stay at the Hotel Rural El Mondalon, set among quiet vineyards. In Tenerife's Garachico, the Hotel Quinta Roja occupies a restored 17th-century mansion overlooking the town square. The properties blend historic architecture with modern comforts, typically featuring private bathrooms and local design elements.
What are some unique natural highlights I'll see in the Canary Islands?
Each island showcases distinct landscapes. Mount Teide on Tenerife reaches 3,718 meters, making it Spain's tallest peak. Gran Canaria features Roque Nublo, a towering natural rock monument. Lanzarote's Timanfaya National Park reveals raw volcanic terrain, while La Gomera preserves dense laurel forests that date back millions of years.
What is the local cuisine like in the Canary Islands?
The islands' kitchens blend Spanish traditions with African and Latin American influences. Local specialties include conejo al salmorejo (rabbit in herb sauce), rancho canario (hearty chickpea soup), and fresh-caught sea bass and swordfish. At places like Hotel Quinta Roja in Tenerife, chefs prepare classic Canarian recipes with contemporary presentations.
How much walking is typically involved each day?
Daily walks cover 6 to 15 kilometers, usually taking 4 to 6 hours. The coastal route from Guatiza to Arrieta in Lanzarote spans 15 kilometers and takes about 5.5 hours, including moderate uphill and downhill sections.
What are the cultural highlights besides walking?
The itinerary weaves in local experiences throughout the islands. Visitors explore traditional villages and sample wines at local bodegas. In Lanzarote, stops include the César Manrique Foundation and the distinctive vineyards of La Geria, where growers use volcanic soil cultivation techniques passed down through generations.
How do I get between islands in the Canary Islands?
Island connections use a mix of sea and air travel. The tour includes ferry service from Los Cristianos to San Sebastián de La Gomera, and a flight connects Tenerife to Lanzarote. The operator handles all inter-island transport arrangements.
