What you will see in Canary Islands during a Sightseeing tour
The Canary Islands, an archipelago off the coast of northwestern Africa, are a treasure trove of sights and sensations. Each island offers a unique landscape, from emerald forests to stark volcanic terrain, from sandy beaches to historical towns. When you embark on a sightseeing tour, these subtropical islands unfold a world of wonder that will capture your imagination.
Thrilling Landscapes
The dramatic landscapes of the Canary Islands are arguably the main attraction. On the island of Tenerife, the Mount Teide National Park is home to Spain's highest peak and the world's third-largest volcano. An adventure to the summit, whether by hiking or cable car, guarantees breathtaking views across the archipelago. The unique lunar landscapes here are otherworldly, and a must-see for every visitor. For a deeper dive into the Canaries' volcanic origins, the Cueva de los Verdes in Lanzarote provides a mesmerizing underground experience, as you explore one of the longest volcanic tunnels in the world.
Happytripz takes pride in offering comprehensive sightseeing tours that are specially designed to showcase the most scenic vistas and ensure memorable experiences.
Charming Towns and Historical Gems
In addition to natural beauty, the Canary Islands are, historically, a crossroads of cultures. The quaint town of La Laguna on Tenerife, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, with its beautifully preserved buildings, offers a glimpse into the past. On Gran Canaria, the cosmopolitan city of Las Palmas awaits, inviting you to stroll through the old quarters of Vegueta, where Christopher Columbus is said to have stayed.
The sightseeing tours with Happytripz also highlight these cultural treasures, ensuring a well-rounded exploration of the islands' heritage.
Flora and Fauna
The unique climate and varied landscapes of the Canary Islands foster an incredible diversity of plant and animal life. On tours to places like the Garajonay National Park on La Gomera, visitors can wander through ancient laurel forests that seem untouched by time. Similarly, the Palmitos Park in Gran Canaria is a botanical garden and aviary that showcases exotic birds and tropical plants.
Beaches and Coastal Wonders
No sightseeing tour of the Canary Islands would be complete without visiting their stunning beaches. From the golden dunes of Maspalomas in Gran Canaria to the black sands of Tenerife's Playa de la Arena, there is a beach to suit every preference. For the water sports enthusiast, the windy shores of Fuerteventura and Lanzarote, like the Playa de Sotavento, are prime locations for windsurfing and kiteboarding.
Our experienced guides at Happytripz are enthusiastic about sharing these coastal gems and are full of insider tips to help you make the most of your beach time.
Exquisite Canarian Cuisine
Finally, indulge in the local flavors on your sightseeing journey. Canarian cuisine offers a variety of dishes such as "papas arrugadas" (wrinkled potatoes) served with the signature red and green "mojos" (sauces), or the hearty "gofio," a flour made from toasted grains. Tasting these local specialties is an integral part of the sightseeing experience. Happytripz ensures that your taste buds are not overlooked, with recommendations and stops at the best local eateries.
In conclusion, the Canary Islands are a sightseer's dream. From the peaks of Teide to the serenity of Garajonay, from the historical streets of La Laguna to the sun-drenched coasts, a tour with Happytripz promises an unforgettable adventure at every turn.
