What you'll see and do
The Windmill
We will make a photo stop at the “Molino de Viento”. It is a windmill, located a few kilometers from Mogan. Oral tradition has it that it was a shepherd from La Aldea who set it on fire in retaliation against the municipal power. From then on it was known as Moulin Brûlé. It was restored in 1998. Its 7 meter tower makes it the largest windmill in Gran Canaria.
15 minutes here
Los Azulejos de Veneguera
We will stop to admire the “Azulejos de Veneguera”, a natural monument formed by a complex process of solidification of the fluids expelled by the Tejeda volcano and which the erosion of thousands of years has left exposed. A mountain as if we colored it with brushstrokes. Erosion revealed a series of geological layers, minerals tinted with reddish, ocher, green and blue tones. Locals gave the name “Los Azulejos de Veneguera” because of their resemblance to the brightly colored tiled walls of San Nicolas de Tolentino.
25 minutes here
Playa de la Aldea
In Puerto de la Aldea we will find the only easily accessible beach on this entire coast. We will walk around the port then head towards “El Charco”. It is a small natural lake located on the beach of La Aldea, made up of sea water. The festivities of El Charco, in the village of San Nicolás, are one of the most famous and popular events in Canary Islands. Every September 11, in the town's "lake", hundreds of people gather to fish with their own hands for the fish that live in this coastal lagoon. This festival is considered an Asset of Cultural Interest and is based on a pre-Hispanic tradition. After a long drive along the rocky abysses with a stop to take photos of the wild coast, we will arrive at our next stop “The Puerto de Las Nieves”.
40 minutes here
Agaete Piscina Natural
Agaete has some of the most popular natural pools and beaches in the northern part of the island. We will walk along its picturesque maritime promenade and stop at the natural pools. Don't forget your swimsuit if you want to swim in these pools! A unique and unforgettable experience!
30 minutes here
Puerto de las Nieves
After swimming, we will walk towards the port of Agaete “Puerto de las Nieves”, a small fishing port with its many fish restaurants by the sea. This will be the ideal stop for a well-deserved lunch break in a typical Canarian restaurant mainly offering locally caught fish. (Meals not included in the price of the excursion). After the meal, we will walk in the port with its white and blue houses at the foot of the pebble beach. We will take the opportunity to see what remains of the famous “Dedo de Dios”, the emblematic rock of the port. It is a monolith rising from the ocean which had the shape of a hand and a finger pointing towards the sky. Following a storm in the fall of 2005, the finger collapsed. All that remains today is the hand. It will then be time to take the road to Arucas.
90 minutes here
Parroquia de San Juan Bautista de Arucas
We will now leave the main road towards Arucas. Here the landscape is very green and there are banana plantations and typical “Fincas” everywhere. In this region, agriculture plays a main role. In Arucas we will visit (exterior) the Cathedral “Iglesia de San Juan”. This enormous church with four towers was built in black basalt.

Full Private Tour of Gran Canaria with Natural Pools: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Gran Canaria.
How much does Full Private Tour of Gran Canaria with Natural Pools cost?
+
Prices start at $180 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 Full Private Tour of Gran Canaria with Natural Pools take?
+
Plan for about 9 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 Full Private Tour of Gran Canaria with Natural Pools worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 67 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 15 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 Full Private Tour of Gran Canaria with Natural Pools?
+
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 Full Private Tour of Gran Canaria with Natural Pools suitable for kids and families?
+
The operator sets a minimum age of 12. Older children generally do well here, and families should factor in the 9-hour running time when deciding.
How far in advance should I book Full Private Tour of Gran Canaria with Natural Pools?
+
Around 5 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 9-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Full Private Tour of Gran Canaria with Natural Pools 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, The Volcano Heart Tour: Hiking, Tasting and Sunset Experience. 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.
