Private tours in Lanzarote

Lanzarote is the island that a single artist shaped. After six years of eruptions in the 1730s buried a quarter of its surface, César Manrique spent his life turning the result into architecture — and persuaded the island to ban high-rise building and roadside advertising. The whole island is a UNESCO biosphere reserve. Tour Travel & More organises 100% private tours of Lanzarote with a licensed official tour guide, a luxury vehicle with chauffeur and a travel coordinator available 24/7.

Timanfaya, the fire mountains

The ground here is still hot enough a few metres down to set brushwood alight in seconds and to grill meat over a borehole, which the restaurant at the visitor centre does. The route through the lava fields is by coach on a protected road, and the colours change with the light all day.

Jameos del Agua and the volcanic tubes

A lava tunnel six kilometres long runs from the Corona volcano to the sea, and Manrique turned part of it into a concert hall, a pool and a lagoon where a species of blind albino crab lives that exists nowhere else. Cueva de los Verdes, in the same tube, was used to hide from pirates.

La Geria, Mirador del Río and the coast

In La Geria vines grow one to a pit dug in black ash, each behind its own stone wall against the wind — a landscape that exists nowhere else and produces good malvasía. In the north, the Mirador del Río is cut into a cliff 475 metres above the sea, and the Papagayo coves in the south are the island's best swimming.
