Island Tours & Day Trips in Gran Canaria

Gran Canaria excursions that cross the island in a day are the classic way to see it, and the 9 here were picked by hand from every listing rated 4.5★ or higher. Prices run from €46 per person for a coach day from Las Palmas over the peaks to the Maspalomas dunes to €104 for a small group trip through the Tirajana caldera and the laurel forest of the north with a tasting on the way. The routes split cleanly: the centre and the peaks with Roque Nublo, Teror and Bandama; the green north with Arucas, Firgas and a coffee plantation; the south east with aboriginal caves and the striped walls of the Barranco de las Vacas; and drives in a convertible beetle for people who would rather hold the wheel.

A quick way to choose: check where the pickup runs, because some day trips collect only in Las Palmas and others only in the southern resorts, and read whether lunch is included or paid in a village restaurant. The best reviewed island tours in Gran Canaria come first below.
