Well organised, especially grouping by language so that everyone was included. The coach was new, clean, very comfortable. Our guide, Eva, conveyed enthusiasm. Hard to believe she’d shared these facts with so many people already, it all seemed fresh (which, to us, it was). Eva knew her subject well, encouraged questions and did a great job of keeping us to schedule, despite being a large group. With only a short time on Lanzarote, TUI Tours were a great way to take in as much as possible.
This half-day tour is Lanzarote in a nutshell. You'll call in at El Golfo lagoon, journey through Timanfaya National Park and visit the Salinas de Janubio. We'll even throw in a wine tasting session to round off the tour.
First up, you'll visit the waters of El Golfo - it's emerald waters have starred in many a Hollywood film over the years. But that's just an appetiser for the main event – the visit to Timanfaya National Park. Famed for its moonlike landscape is dotted with lava fields and black rocks, you'll see the ‘Fire Mountain', to name but a few.
We'll continue the tour with a stop in La Geria for a sip of some local wine before we reach Salinas de Janubio, the largest salt flats in the Canaries. Snap a few selfies with the miles of cotton-white salt mounds as your guide fills you in on the history of this all-important island resource. You'll even get a chance to try some, too.
