What people love about Canary Islands Tours
- Tenerife North & South, Self-drive
We booked a self-guided tour in Tenerife, splitting our stay between the north for 3 nights and the south for 4 nights. In the north, we enjoyed a scenic hike and visited Loro Parque, ending one evening with a private dinner at Bernoulli's Steak House. Our 4* hotel had a beautiful beach view. The experience at H10 Atlantic Hotel in South Tenerife was fantastic, especially the quad ride and sunset at Mt. Teide. We also explored a mall and relaxed at the beaches. Driving around Tenerife was easy, making it a great destination for tourists who prefer to self-drive. Overall, our Tenerife trip was memorable and fun.
- Sailing the Canary Islands
Wonderful skipper, great restaurants, good weather. Waves and winds a bit rough
- Lanzarote, Land of Volcanoes Self-Guided Cycling Tour
Excellent flexibility and high quality accommodation. The cycling is also amazing with suggestions for routes on days off. A great way to explore virtually the whole island.

Travel Canary Islands your way
Our walking routes bring together La Gomera's laurel forests and Tenerife's volcanic trails, which really works well for varied hiking. When you walk through Garajonay National Park, you'll get to experience the misty cloud forests and see local people demonstrate their traditional whistling language. The paths around El Hierro take you across volcanic ash cones and down to lowland plains. Our customers particularly like exploring Anaga Rural Park's UNESCO Biosphere Reserve, where you'll spot prehistoric cave houses along the forest paths. Over in Lanzarote, the routes combine coastal walking on the Famara Cliffs with tracks through Timanfaya's volcanic landscapes. Most days cover 10-15 kilometers with climbs of 400-600 meters - good moderate hiking that keeps things interesting.

"The hikes themselves were very nice. So the 3 day hiking experience was great. I was very disappointed with the optional last day as it really meant that the tour finished after day 4

"I recently had the pleasure of taking a tour around the southern part of Tenerife, and it was an unforgettable experience, the volcanic landscapes, especially around Mount Teide, were stunning and unlike anything I've seen before. The pick up of the car was speedy and easy and the service at the time of the booking of this tour was excellent as we decided to travel in a short period of time. Great hotels, super relaxing and comfortable, one of them with an amazing view, and very friendly staff. Thank you for everything!

Small Group
17 tours in Canary IslandsA few small group trips really shine in our Canaries collection. The Tenerife to La Gomera sailing trip keeps things cozy - you'll learn basic sailing while finding quiet spots to anchor. Our cycling customers love combining Gran Canaria and Tenerife because smaller groups mean better support on tough climbs like Pico de las Nieves and Mount Teide. Then there's our 10-day walking tour across three islands, where our travelers especially enjoy Anaga's ancient forests and also the old paths through La Gomera's Garajonay National Park.
Private / Personalized
14 tours in Canary IslandsIf you prefer going at your own pace, our Tenerife self-drive tour lets you explore both coastlines exactly as you like. Our customers tell us they love choosing quieter times to visit spots like Las Cañadas and Teide National Park. The self-guided Lanzarote cycling tour gives you freedom to ride through La Geria's wine country and along the rocky coast - travelers often mention how much they like having planned routes that still let them take spontaneous breaks and longer stops where interesting things catch their eye.
Top Canary Islands travel itineraries to fit your plans
Ten days gives you real time to sink into island life. The longer itinerary weaves active days with proper cultural deep-dives. You'll walk through Tenerife's prehistoric Anaga woods, then hop over to La Gomera - following Columbus' historic route. Up north, the paths wind through Garajonay's ancient laurels and along cliff-edge platforms with Tenerife laid out across the water. La Palma offers walks around Caldera de Taburiente at 2,426m - our groups say seeing the islands from up there changes their whole perspective. For yoga enthusiasts, we mix daily sessions with walks through Timanfaya's volcanic terrain, local wine tastings in La Geria's unusual vineyards and also guided meditation sessions.

These multi-island tours are all about active discovery for younger travelers, with each day bringing fresh experiences across the Canary Islands. Starting in Tenerife, you'll walk prehistoric trails through Anaga's wilderness before heading to La Gomera, where guides share the fascinating whistling language traditions in mist-covered laurel woods. The daily walks cover 10-12km with elevation gains between 400-900m, striking that sweet spot between challenging and accessible. Our groups love how the routes mix up solid hiking with impromptu dips at volcanic beaches, followed by evenings wandering colonial streets. La Palma delivers some of the best terrain, with trails circling the massive Caldera at 2,426m offering vast ocean views before winding down through volcanic zones to hidden coastal settlements. There's plenty of flexibility built in for optional activities like Teide stargazing or market visits, and the intimate group size of 12-16 creates natural connections among fellow travelers. You'll find yourself walking ancient merchant paths in Vilaflor, scaling volcanic peaks around Fuencaliente and also discovering local culture alongside other adventurous spirits.
Seniors can explore the Canaries at a relaxed rhythm on our sailing tours, where 17-meter yachts provide space to assist with navigation or simply watch for marine life from the deck. Many mature travelers tell us they particularly value the cultural visits through Santa Cruz's historic quarter, and peaceful evenings anchored under starlit skies. The self-guided cycling routes across Lanzarote let you control the tempo while discovering La Geria's volcanic vineyards and scenic coastal paths, with comprehensive route guidance and vehicle backup always nearby. Our combined walking experiences in La Gomera and Lanzarote have become favorites among senior guests, blending easy forest trails in Garajonay National Park with seaside walks and local culture visits - with daily distances that flex between 10-15 kilometers based on group preferences. For a gentler pace, sailing itineraries anchor in sheltered coves and provide ample time to wander through colonial towns like San Sebastian, Santa Cruz de la Palma and also other historic ports.

Best time to visit Canary Islands
- Spring 2025
Spring is when our self-drive tours really shine, especially around Tenerife from March to May with ideal conditions for exploring both coastlines. Our travelers appreciate having flexibility to time their visits to popular spots like Las Cañadas, and spring decorates many hiking trails with wildflowers. La Gomera's walking tours consistently get good feedback in spring - the paths are quieter and weather's perfect for extended hikes. Many customers point out how much they enjoy moving through different landscapes, from misty forests to coastal tracks and also rocky paths. Lanzarote's self-guided cycling tours peak in spring too, with riders loving the moderate temperatures for routes through La Geria's distinctive wine country.

- Summer 2025
Summer draws people to our northern routes, where Tenerife's Anaga Rural Park offers shaded walks and cooler temperatures. These ancient trails date to the Tertiary period, and our travelers particularly enjoy exploring the old laurel forests. Summer sailing tours are popular too - you can jump in for refreshing swims right from the boat in La Gomera's quiet bays. Our customers often mention how they like combining easy coastal walks with relaxed sailing between islands, though some routes include longer days at sea worth preparing for.
- Fall / Autumn 2025
Autumn creates perfect conditions for our more demanding walking tours, with routes on La Gomera, Tenerife and also Mount Teide getting particularly strong feedback. Our travelers often mention loving the clear autumn skies for photography, especially along the Famara Cliffs. Multi-island walking tours work exceptionally well this season - you'll find peaceful trails and pleasant temperatures for longer hikes. The self-guided cycling tours receive great autumn reviews too, with customers appreciating the quiet time to explore La Geria's vineyards and coastal paths without summer crowds. Tour company feedback from our travelers suggests La Gomera and Tenerife are real standouts for walking holidays with Explore. Their routes take you through pine forests, along coastal paths and into quiet villages that most visitors never see. The walks can be quite demanding though - some of our guests mention needing good fitness levels, proper boots and walking poles for the steeper sections. Over in Gran Canaria, Eat Sleep Cycle has found a sweet spot combining challenging rides with comfort. Their base at the Spa Hotel lets you tackle those mountain climbs and then properly recover afterwards. The routes are cleverly designed so you can adjust the distance and difficulty each day. Macs Adventure gives cyclists more independence in Lanzarote - their self-guided tours mean you can stop whenever you spot something interesting. Our travelers particularly like being able to explore at their own pace, knowing they've got quality hotels booked ahead and detailed route notes to follow. They provide good bikes, move your luggage between hotels and pick routes that show off the volcanic landscapes and quiet coastal roads. Each company brings something different - Explore for guided walks in the western islands, Eat Sleep Cycle for supported riding from a comfortable base and Macs Adventure for independent cycling with all the logistics taken care of.

- Winter 2025 / 2026
Winter really brings out the best in our Canary Islands walking tours, particularly on La Gomera and Lanzarote from December through February. The mild temperatures make longer walks quite enjoyable - our travelers tell us they love mixing the misty trails in Garajonay National Park with stops in San Sebastian's old quarters. The combined islands walking tour gets excellent feedback, especially for its contrast between volcanic landscapes and dense forests. Over in Lanzarote, winter walkers particularly enjoy the Famara Cliffs paths, often mentioning the perfect photography conditions. Our sailing tours do well in winter too - you'll need to be ready for some choppy seas as customers note, but those clear winter skies make for fantastic stargazing from quiet anchorages.
