The greatest people, transport and loving joyful experience
Book this. No regrets! Juan and Ines will give you so many surprises and if you've never explored inland gran canaria you'll be overwhelmed with the beauty and the culture
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for this fantastic review! ❤️ And we absolutely love your opening advice: “Book this. No regrets!” 😄 We’re so happy that Juan and Inés managed to surprise you along the way and that you enjoyed discovering the beauty and culture of inland Gran Canaria. There is so much more to the island beyond the coast and the usual tourist routes, and sharing those places with our guests is what we love most. Thank you also for mentioning the people, the transport and the joyful atmosphere. For us, the experience is about bringing all those elements together and making you feel part of the adventure from the very beginning. Thank you for trusting Sky Rebels and for the wonderful recommendation. We hope to surprise you again someday! 🌴🚐❤️

Off the beaten path
The ultimate off the beaten path experience. Disclaimer: if you don't have reasonable fitness and agility it will be hard to enjoy this. We're in our mid 70's and found it challenging (in a positive way), but doable. Inez and Jaun are energetic, enthusiastic, creative, knowledgeable. Within minutes of our pickup we knew we were in for a special day. To provide much more information would be a spoiler alert so will just attach a few pix to give a hint or two.
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for this fantastic review! ❤️ We absolutely love your description of the experience as the “ultimate off the beaten path” adventure. It was a real pleasure having you with us, and we’re especially impressed that, even in your mid-70s, you embraced the more challenging moments with such a positive spirit! 🙌 We’re delighted that Inés and Juan made you feel from the very beginning that you were in for a special day. Our aim is always to take our guests beyond the usual tourist routes, share the stories and secrets of Gran Canaria, and leave enough surprises along the way to make the discovery part of the adventure. And thank you for keeping the spoilers to a minimum! 😉 Some places are definitely better discovered in person. It was wonderful having you with us. We hope the memories – and the photos – will bring you back to Gran Canaria for another adventure! 🌴🥾

Wonderful Day Exploring Gran Canaria’s Pretty Villages, History & Spectacular Mountains With Two Delightful Experienced
We are a mobile couple in our 70s and Ines & Juanjo made us very welcome and looked after us admirably all day. Juanjo was a safe driver navigating some narrow roads as we climbed. They were both very knowledgeable about Gran Canaria’s history of the island going back to the cave dwellers and how they lived. We visited an information centre detailing the lives of the cave dwellers and how the Europeans conquered the island and what came next. We visited the villages of Fataga & Tejeda, the latter being voted the prettiest in Spain, which it certainly is. There’s a wonderful shop selling lots of almond products made from the trees that abound in this area. We drove up to the highest point on the island with the most spectacular views which feels like the top of the world. We stopped at a picnic site and Ines produced some very tasty homemade tapas, wine and water and a digestive of honey rum which was delicious. We were only 4 on the trip so the minibus was very comfortable and all in all a very enjoyable day and well worth booking.
Response from the operator: thank you very much for your words, Regards, Inés & Juanjo

Gran Canaria highlights & hidden gems with local guide Sky Rebels: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Gran Canaria.
How much does Gran Canaria highlights & hidden gems with local guide Sky Rebels cost?
+
Prices start at $109 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 Gran Canaria highlights & hidden gems with local guide Sky Rebels take?
+
Plan for about 6.5 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 Gran Canaria highlights & hidden gems with local guide Sky Rebels worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 70 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 35 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable culture & history in Gran Canaria, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Gran Canaria highlights & hidden gems with local guide Sky Rebels?
+
No. This experience is sold on a non-refundable basis, so only book a date you are confident about. Similar experiences in the city do offer free cancellation if flexibility matters more than price.
Is Gran Canaria highlights & hidden gems with local guide Sky Rebels suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 6.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Gran Canaria highlights & hidden gems with local guide Sky Rebels?
+
Around 12 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 6.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Gran Canaria highlights & hidden gems with local guide Sky Rebels 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 Gran Canaria highlights & hidden gems with local guide Sky Rebels?
+
Included: Private transportation; Bottled water; Lunch; All Fees and Taxes; and In-vehicle air conditioning. Not included: Tea and coffee. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Where is the meeting point for Gran Canaria highlights & hidden gems with local guide Sky Rebels?
+
Pick up at 8.30 Bus stop nr 11042 Hotel pickup is not included, so plan your own transport and arrive 15 minutes early.
What languages is Gran Canaria highlights & hidden gems with local guide Sky Rebels offered in?
+
It is offered in English and Spanish. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.
