Gran Canaria · 2-HOUR EXPERIENCES
15 tours
Start at number one. These 15 2-hour experiences are the ones worth a day away from the beach, each with what it costs, where it picks up, and how much of the island it shows you.

“I hadn’t ridden for over 10 years and Michał made the whole experience unforgettable. Michał is well kitted out with safety equipment and different bikes to suit size and ability. He’s very friendly, patient and provides excellent advice throughout the ride. The ride itself is stunning and a real opportunity to get off road and see the beauty of Fuerteventura. I finished the ride on a high (and with some amazing pics) and really can’t wait to come back again one day ☺️”

Showed us the sunset and told us a little bit about the island. 5/5 would recommend. 💕”

Everything about it was excellent, from the spotless boat to the friendliness and helpfulness of our hosts, and the quality of the food and drink. Would highly recommend!”
