Walk through a working banana farm in Tazacorte on La Palma's west coast and see how Canary Island bananas are really grown. This isn't a museum or a show farm: the plants, the bunches, and the daily work are real.
The tour is led by local farmers who work these fields every day. Along an easy path between the banana plants, you will learn how a plant grows, why it gives only one bunch, how long it takes and why Canary bananas taste different. You will also hear about the history and traditions of the banana on the island, and take photos wearing traditional Indianos clothing, with a souvenir photo for every visitor.
The tour ends with a relaxed tasting among the plants: wrinkled potatoes with mojo sauce, local cheeses, almonds and nuts, typical La Palma sweets, dried and fresh bananas and honey, with a glass of wine, juice, water and a freshly made mojito.
