Only the best
The extra details that make the trip. One more stop. That hidden corner. Only the best stuff makes it in. Rated 8.3/10
This grand tour of Gran Canaria takes in the best of the island's highlands in just one day as you visit the villages of Tejeda and Teror . There'll be plenty of photo stops along the way, too. Pepe, one of our local guides, says, "Teror is one of my favourite spots on the island, with history seeping from the walls in the old quarter. The buildings are so charming and in the main square, you'll get to see the typical Canarian balconies the town is famous for."
It's a blockbuster from the go. Our first stop is at the Degollada de la Yegua viewpoint, which by day boasts views of a Wild West-like canyon and by night of the stars. Then it's on to Tunte, where you might decide to visit the Casa Los Yánez Ethnographic Museum, though it is not open every day. Next, you'll head to Tejeda, considered one of Spain's prettiest villages. All pretty whitewashed houses and palm trees nestled in the shadow of Roque Nublo and Roque Bentayga, it's Insta-perfect.
There's some free time scheduled here where you can explore on your own and find a spot to buy lunch. When you've had your fill here, the afternoon is then dedicated to the picture-postcard town of Teror. It's famed for its pastel-coloured colonial homes with carved overhanging balconies.
