With its vine-laden lava fields, exuberant architecture and otherworldly landscapes, Lanzarote looks and feels like something from a sci-fi movie set. This exclusive half-day tour takes in the Cesar Manrique Foundation and his Cactus Garden, followed by a visit to Farmer's Monument. Manrique was admired by many in his lifetime, and his influence on Lanzarote's culture lives on. He was a versatile artist producing paintings, sculptures and architectural works, bringing sustainability to the forefront of his creations, long before it became a buzzword. You'll first tour his Jardín de Cactus where 1,100 species of sculptural succulents are grown. You can see instantly how Manrique's skill and vision enhanced the barren landscape. Similarly, the Fundacion Cesar Manrique demonstrates that harmony between the built environment and nature can succeed. A visit to the artist's home-studio, built into a lava field, is ample proof. Finally, we'll head to Farmer's Monument.

Truly fascinating and remarkable. The cactus garden was stunning. Cesaer Manrique's foundation was breathtaking. Our guide, sorry I didn't catch her name, was "spot on" and good fun.

Well put together with knowledgeable and helpful guide and friendly driver. Good overview of Cesar Manrique's work.

A enjoyable, cultured half day trip out. Coach was super comfortable (Tui coach) and the guide was very friendly and professional with interesting information provided en route in German and English as that suited the audience attending. The three stops (cactus garden, Cézar Manrique’s foundation and the Lagomar Museum which used to be owned by Omar Sharif) were perfectly timed with enough time to look around properly and then have a quick browse in the gift shop or drink in the café. I would recommend this tour and was picked up at my hotel. Went alone and felt safe and well organised. So pleased to have experienced some culture in Lanzarote and learnt a lot and saw some fantastic sights away from the commercial hubs of the island.

Die Informationen von der Reiseführerin waren sehr spannend. Die Busfahrerin ist sehr gut gefahren. Wir sind gleich dran gekommen bei den Einrichtungen und mussten nie wirklich warten.
