Lanzarote's Fiery Heart: Timanfaya & La Geria Exclusive

Really nice tour, with a great tour-guide (Paul) and driver (Roberto). Excellent commentary, with lots of information about the island, and its volcanic history. Perfect for solo travellers (Me), couples, or groups ! Would highly recommend. Covered a great route through the National Park (Route only accessible by a tour-bus).

Pick up late, lot of hanging around before got to first real stop. Toilet on bus not available caused problems. Each visit then curtailed to a few minutes not giving opportunity to explore locations. Guide informative but lacked empathy with guests needs.

The excursion itself was good, and the guide was knowledgeable and friendly. However, the pick-up took much longer than expected, which was frustrating. If that process were more efficient, the experience would have been much better.

A great half day tour to see the rugged beauty of the island. Very well paced. Michael was an excellent guide. Knowledgeable with a great sense of humour. Explaining the origins of the island and how the volcanoes have shaped life. If you do 1 thing in Lanzarote - do this trip!

Views were amazing and Paul the tour guide was very helpful and knowledgeable. We didn’t spend much time at the park centre though was mainly the camel ride area and the vineyard the end. Was overall a nice half day trip and for the price I would recommend.

Extremely good value trip. Knowledgable guide. We really enjoyed seeing the camels, having the tour through the volcanoes and learning about the history of Timanfaya. Definitely recommend this trip and this tour company!

We booked this as we just wanted to see the main reserve, alot of the providers were offering extra to make a day of it. From our stay in Playa Blanca this tour totalled 5 hours, 2 Adults for £42 each. We were collected at 0900 from our hotel by our transfer and taken to our tour bus which set off for 1030 outside of the Aloe Vera museum - an hour and a half transfer. A further 20 minute journey took us to our first stop, the camels. At the time €11 per adult for a 25 minute ride. This was a lovely spot, although we did feel rushed. No time was given by the tour to head back to the bus and we were left behind. A thankful honk from another tour bus and a sprint to ours that had driven off without us. We were back on track. Lol. From there a 10 minute drive to Timanfaya, we were shown 3 interactive features of the volcano but very little information provided. Everyone was given 20 minutes at the restaurant, please bring your own food and drinks as you will not have enough time to purchase anything. The suvoune shop was very busy but a nice range of merch, relatively reasonable prices. A recommendation advised by the fella, to take your travel sickness tablets as the skillful driver will take you on a rollercoaster ride around the volcano. An audio tape is played throughout which is informative. After this you are taken to the wine tasting, with a 30 minute time slot. At this location the tour guide had received printed photos from the camel tour, trying to sell them for €7 each. As customers from Playa Blanca, the transfer back, we were dropped off at a mid point and had to get onto another coach. An ok sightseeing tour. However, I don't feel it is worth the money we paid online; especially when couples paid on the day for a lower price. We felt like we were travelling for a long time for little sightseeing.

Michael was amazing! So funny and very informative, the tour was great, we seen the geysers, rode camels (€11 pp extra), seen all of the national park by coach. They then took us to a little winery where we got the opportunity to try a sample of the wine from the region, very fun day!

We wanted to book a South Island tour with our tour operator, Jet2, but they never responded to our call!! Now we are glad they didn't! This tour was great. Very informative, the guide was friendly and funny and her English was great. We started at the camel rides, and although my husband and I didn't want a ride, it was an interesting stop. There was a small museum, toilet and gift shop, and we were there for around 20 minutes. Next, we headed to the Timfanaya National Park. Here, we went to the summit where we saw the geothermic experiments and had time to look around the gift shop, get a drink, use the toilets, and take some great photos! After this, our coach driver took us carefully around the national park, and we learned all about the eruptions on Lanzarote. I loved this part and got some more great photos. If you don't like heights, I'd recommend sitting on the left/ drivers side of the bus, as most of the "drops" are on the right!! We had a short stop in a village that was miraculously missed by the lava flow, here we could buy a drink or some lunch. It was a very pretty spot to stop. Then, lastly, it was on to the vineyards at La Geria. Don't be expecting a full wine tasting. You get to taste one, which was delicious. But, this is where the difference in tours lies. As I said at the beginning, we were trying to book the tour through Jet2, but it was twice the price of this tour!!!! Maybe you get a longer wine tasting on the more expensive tours, but we found this to be perfect for us! The time in each stop was long enough to get some great photos, the guide was brilliant and full of knowledge, and we were out for around 5 hours, which I think is great value. I would definitely recommend this tour.

Views amazing with courier joining in on any of the demonstrations. He thoroughly explained what would happen and why. The driver was also excellent... a few jokes regarding him from the courier but he certainly made you feel safe... pick up exactly as informed
