Canary Islands Tours and Trips

The itinerary was great, and I don't give it the full smily face because two days of the walks had to be replaced by lighter ones as a big storm passed over the island - so I can't comment on them. No fault of the guide or tour operator, indeed the guide rightly put safety first. The island is a mix of dry lower parts and forested higher parts, all visited. Lunch and evening meals need to be paid for separately but were good and well arranged.

We were very satisfied with the arrangements made for our trip which we only booked very close to the proposed departure date. Accommodation was very good and the arrangements for transfer of luggage and ourselves between departure points for the walks worked without a hitch. App for walk was easy to use and accurate. Would use the same organisation again for future walks.

David was a fantastic trekking guide. Very knowledgeable of the trails & history of the area, considerate, great at managing group dynamics, organized, and thoughtful. David made the week worthy of traveling from the U.S. I can not recommend him highly enough! Explore was great in organizing most things. There were a few things I'd recommend...that Explore move the packing list items to the final documents (instead of digging through beginning documents and it was difficult to find) and giving the leader our insurance information so we didn't have to dig that up on the trip. All in all, a fantastic adventure and met great people on the trek. Thank you!

A great week of walking headed by David our amazing guide. David’s enthusiasm, professionalism and outgoing personality made each day a wonderful experience. He put 100% effort into ensuring each walk was enjoyable, rewarding and showcased the highlights of Gran Canaria.

A great trip with a great group of people and a great tour leader. The walks were interesting and varied giving a good insight into rural Gran Canaria whilst taking in the main natural sights on the island.

a two centre holiday giving access to less well known mountain areas as well as Pico de las Nieves, highest point of the island. Terrific walking, if sometimes challenging. A small group, 13, and leader above average - Bert
