5.Las Palmas: Tapas and Drinks in the Beauty of the Old City

★★★★★★★★★★4.6 · 79 reviews · 2 hours · from $65

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. Expect a small or private group, changing stops, two tapas, two drinks, and recommendations for continuing your evening.

“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.”

Great tour with a really knowledgeable guide Would absolutely recommend & well worth the money”

9.e-Bike Mountain Tour inside a Natural Park+option Tapas in a Cave

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 26 reviews · 3 hours (approx.) · from $95

Join guide Lorenzo for a three-hour e-bike ride from Maspalomas through the dunes, parks, villages, and Ayagaures valley. Expect paved roads, a climb to about 500 meters, an Aboriginal cave bar, and a 37-kilometer route for some groups. Tapas cost extra and are unavailable in July and August.

“Fun, spectacular and very informative. Prepare for an ebike trek in the town & up the canyon, though since it is electric, it's an easy ride, passing thru 1-2 plantations, cave cafe and local villages. The landscape is breathtaking. You'll need to be alert, to navigate the traffic and then the narrow road across the canyon, and my gods it's worth it! Didn't do this in a car, it's much more vibrant on a bike. The guide is versed in managing a large group and is super knowledgeable in everything related to the island and he loves what he does.”
