    Excellent day out in the mountains away from the crowds

    My wife and I did this trip.I hike a lot where my wife doesn’t.They catered for us both. New transport was nice smooth ride with competent driving. Knowledge from native guides was vast with some humour. After tour made detour to the bus stop so we could go back to our hotel 20 miles away. Bus service on the Island is superb and not costly so please use.

    Response from the operator: Thank you so much for this wonderful review! ❤️ We’re delighted that you and your wife enjoyed your day in the mountains and, especially, that you both felt comfortable despite having different hiking levels. One of the advantages of our small groups is being able to adapt the pace and experience to the people who are actually with us. We’re also very happy that you enjoyed the comfortable ride, the local knowledge and the humour along the way! 😊 And we’re glad we could make the little detour at the end to help you get back to your hotel. It was our pleasure! Thank you for joining us and for highlighting the quieter side of Gran Canaria. We hope you’ll come back and explore more of the island with us someday. 🌋🥾🌴

    Excellent small group (6 people) tour. Inez and Juan do their utmost to make this a great experience.

    Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your lovely review! ❤️ We’re delighted that you enjoyed your Roque Nublo adventure with us. Keeping our groups small is very important to us, as it allows Inés and Juan to give each guest the attention they deserve and make the experience feel personal and relaxed. We’re so happy that their enthusiasm and dedication helped make your day special. Thank you for choosing Sky Rebels, and we hope to see you again on another Gran Canaria adventure! 🌋🥾🌴

    You absolutely must book this trip!

    What an amazing Trip! Massive thanks to Inés, Juanjo and Lupita, their talking, singing van. Their enthusiasm was infectious and their knowledge of Gran Canaria and the geology of the rock formations was so interesting. We learnt so much. It was a breathtaking view from the top and we would thoroughly recommend this trip. It was great fun and we’ll definitely be going somewhere else with them again when we return to Gran Canaria.

    Response from the operator: Thank you so much for this fantastic review! 🙌 It genuinely made our day! We’re absolutely delighted that you enjoyed the adventure with Inés, Juanjo and, of course, Lupita – our talking and singing van! 😄🚐🎶 It’s wonderful to hear that you enjoyed learning about Gran Canaria and its fascinating volcanic geology as much as the breathtaking views from Roque Nublo. For us, the best tours are the ones where you can learn something new, discover incredible places and have a great laugh along the way. And knowing that you’re already planning to explore somewhere else with us when you return to Gran Canaria is the best compliment we could receive. ❤️ Thank you for the enthusiastic recommendation – we’ll be waiting for you and the next adventure! 🌋🥾🌴

    Must do Experience!

    Our hiking trip to Roque Nublo was one of our highlights to Gran Canaria. Our guides were fun, locals and super knowledgeable about the area and customs. We not only hiked but learned a lot along the way. We had appropriate stops which were appreciated and gave us an opportunity to learn a little more and regroup. Our group was small (we had 5) which gave us the personalized experience we we looking for. Well done!

    Response from the operator: Thank you very much Marcy for your review! Best, Inés & Juanjo

    Roque Nublo: hiking on volcanoes with Sky Rebels: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Gran Canaria.

    How much does Roque Nublo: hiking on volcanoes with Sky Rebels cost?

    +

    Prices start at $96 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 Roque Nublo: hiking on volcanoes with Sky Rebels take?

    +

    Plan for about 5.5 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 Roque Nublo: hiking on volcanoes with Sky Rebels worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 78 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 106 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 Roque Nublo: hiking on volcanoes with 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 Roque Nublo: hiking on volcanoes with Sky Rebels suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 5.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Roque Nublo: hiking on volcanoes with Sky Rebels?

    +

    Around 37 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 5.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Roque Nublo: hiking on volcanoes with 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.
