Meet your English-speaking guide near San Telmo and walk into Las Palmas Old City for tapas and a drink at two local bars. Artemis often leads, sharing city stories and practical tips.

“Artemis was a great guide. Clearly knows his city and the island’s history. We visited a couple of venues and enjoyed a variety of dishes & a drink in each - all very tasty and we scoffed the lot! It was just the two of us on the tour which made it all the more personable. My only ask is that Artemis can maybe stop walking each time he has something to say as a couple of times we were walking behind and it was more difficult to follow what he said. Great experience though.”
