What you'll see and do
Telde
The second most important city on the island. It is essential to visit the Barrio de San Juan, which constitutes the founding nucleus of the city. Around the primitive Church of San Juan Bautista and the Plaza Mayor, another historical place of great cultural value is the Barrio de San Francisco, where the curious visitor will immediately understand that the neighborhood as a whole is much more than a small conglomerate of narrow streets in the city of Telde.

Pico De Las Nieves
The highest viewpoint in Gran Canaria, from where you can discover this small continent. I know you can see Roque Nublo, one of the most emblematic natural spaces on the island, El Roque Bentayga, the Tejeda caldera, and if the day is good you can see Teide de Tenerife, the largest volcano in Spain.

Cruz de Tejeda
It is a mountainous area in an environment of great beauty, it stands out for the magnificent views over the island and for a large stone cross "La Cruz de Tejeda" that presides over its 17th century entrance and which marks the geographical center of Gran Canaria.

Fataga
In this town there is a landscape of palm trees and Canarian pine which is somewhat unusual and worth seeing. A town where several houses preserve their traditional Canarian state, with its spectacular views of the mountains and the valley of a thousand palm trees.

Well-preserved Old Town San Francisco
It is worth taking a trip to Telde. Even the larger access road is great and you can see that the city generates good revenue. The two old towns of San Juan and San Francisco have retained their original construction. Just let it drift through the small alleys. In San Juan we came across a magical little park. An oasis between the rows of houses. Finally, visit an old real bodega.

Highly recommend this trip
Excellent trip. Francine and Naomi were very welcoming. Francine's knowledgeable and master of linguistics makes it easy to understand. The stops we made we had enough time to browse and the excellent choice of lunch stop was very panoramic. A fabulous three course lunch with wine and soft drinks was included was more than plentiful. You are not aware that you are on your own. This was my second trip with them and i would definitely recommend this company. Great value for money and diversity of interesting places to visit and sound knowledge of the locations.
Response from the operator: Thank you Carrie for your review! We are glad you have had enjoy the experience

Excursion to the center of the island Gran Canaria: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Gran Canaria.
How much does Excursion to the center of the island Gran Canaria cost?
+
Prices start at $103 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Gran Canaria usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Excursion to the center of the island Gran Canaria take?
+
Plan for about 8 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Gran Canaria is not rushed.
Is Excursion to the center of the island Gran Canaria worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 57 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 2 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Gran Canaria, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Excursion to the center of the island Gran Canaria?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Excursion to the center of the island Gran Canaria suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 8-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Excursion to the center of the island Gran Canaria?
+
Around 1 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Gran Canaria can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Gran Canaria and add a light layer if any part of the 8-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Excursion to the center of the island Gran Canaria start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Gran Canaria within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Gran Canaria?
+
On Outty we rank every Gran Canaria experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Puerto de Mogán: Coastal Cruise with Optional Snorkeling & Lunch, Guided tour of the Banana World, Gran Canaria Red Canyon: Small Group Tour & Local Food ツ. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Gran Canaria?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Gran Canaria?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
What is included in Excursion to the center of the island Gran Canaria?
+
Included: In-vehicle air conditioning. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Does Excursion to the center of the island Gran Canaria include hotel pickup?
+

What languages is Excursion to the center of the island Gran Canaria offered in?
+
It is offered in German, English, French and Spanish. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.
Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Excursion to the center of the island Gran Canaria?
+
Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.
