## Overview

First of all, please let us introduce ourselves: we are Inés & Juanjo, 2 real local guides in Gran Canaria, founders of the Sky Rebels company in 2013. With us, you are going to discover and experience the beauty of this island with real "local eyes". 

You will experience a travel in time in which you will learn about our history, culture and traditions, exploring incredible locations out of the crowds.

You will discover the spectacular Barranco de las Vacas, where hundreds of years ago water flowed in unimaginable ways, sculpting its walls in such a way that today it looks like a scene from a distant planet.

We will visit and tell you the secrets of a surprising hidden cave, excavated by the first inhabitants of the island. This secret place is not in the tourist guides, so get ready to discover this amazing place.

And we will finish with a visit to a cute hamlet. You will meet genuine local villagers and understand why Gran Canaria is one of the friendliest places in the World.
