Waterproof shoes matter because feet get wet on the trail; transport and photos by the guide are included at €104 per person, rated 4.84 from 728 reviews.

## Overview

Dive into the verdant heart of Gran Canaria with The Rainforest Tour, an immersive journey through the island’s rich ecological and cultural heritage. Start in the historic town of Firgas, the "City of Water," where you'll explore ancient mills and take in Atlantic views. Continue to the breathtaking Azuaje Ravine, a remnant of the ancient Doramas Forest, where an adventurous hike awaits through laurel forests, pristine streams, and unique biodiversity. Discover the ruins of the Azuaje Spa, hidden deep within the ravine. Next, visit Ecofinca Ventana Verde, a sustainable farm where you'll savor organic produce and learn about eco-friendly practices. Finally, unwind at the natural pools of El Puertillo, relaxing in volcanic rock pools with stunning ocean views.
