Experience the magic of a mesmerising night under the stars in Gran Canaria with the freedom and flexibility of a self-drive tour. Begin your evening at a panoramic viewpoint, taking in a spectacular sunset above the clouds, then drive along winding mountain roads to reach the stargazing site. Here, you can enjoy the celestial spectacle and leave at your leisure, or stay longer under the star-filled sky and watch the magic unfold.
You'll meet your guide at Mirador del Pico de las Nieves. Perched 1949m above sea level, this spot offers awe-inspiring views above the clouds, with both Mount Teide in Tenerife and Pico de las Nieves in Gran Canaria visible on the horizon. As you admire the breathtaking sunset, enjoy a welcome drink of cava or juice. Next, venture deeper into the heart of the island to the stargazing spot at Llanos de la Pez for an unforgettable experience.
With minimal light pollution and some of the world's clearest skies, the Canary Islands are a premier stargazing destination. Using powerful telescopes, expert guides will introduce you to planets, galaxies, nebulae, and star clusters. You'll also enjoy a laser-guided constellation tour, view live deep-sky photography, discover intriguing stories about the universe, and receive a professional night-sky photo taken using advanced astrophotography techniques.
