Full-day tour of Gran Canaria’s mountains and salt flats

The itinerary was very good together with the guide and driver . On the improvement side, the pick up was 35minutes late and no explanation The space in the bus was very cramped on the back seat and limited leg room for me as tall person

Pick up was 8.15,bus was half an hour late. There were only 2 very narrow seats left on the back row so were squashed onto half a seat each. The commentary through the walker talkie was inaudible at times with crackly connection. The bits we did hear were rambling eg “trees on the left”. The lunch location was disappointing. The salt farm and rainbow mountain were very good. We were last drop off at the end. Too long on minibus in cramped uncomfortable conditions. Partial refund please.

When climbing and coming down the mountains in a Minibus ,there were a lot of sharp bends .... quite naturally. However, as it was early morning and I had had a very limited breakfast, taking the bends at speed, made me feel quite sick and woozy. Frequent stops helped and when the Minbus came back to level ground, I started to feel better. I don't feel this excursion is suitable for people who suffer from travel sickness. Otherwise, everything else on the TUI holiday was fine

The guide was very knowledgeable and polite. The majority of his commentary was presented in German, as the majority of the passengers in our mini bus were German and we too and another couple were English speakers ( we are Irish abd the other couple English). Most of the German commentary was extensive and then when he repeated it in English it was very much shorter. We did ask him to repeat something in English and he said German was first. I found this aspect disappointing

Good itinerary very interesting. Only fault was the system of linked minibuses. We were a convoy of 3. The guide was in one of the others, and we had great difficulty hearing what he said. So we missed most of the commentary which affected our experience.

The scenery, especially on the western side of the island, was spectacular. Our driver, Roberto, was amazing and I’m very glad that he was driving on some of those narrow roads and not me. We waited in a supermarket car park for over half an hour for all three minibuses to assemble. The commentary was very poor, done via walkie talkies and very hard to understand. During the English commentary those who didn’t speak English just kept talking making it even more difficult to understand.
