Itinerary

1. After a journey of about 40 minutes from the pick-up point, we visit the Cueva de los Verdes, a unique formation of landscape and volcanological characteristics of extraordinary value. Located in the north of the island, and integrated into the vast volcanic landscape of Malpaís de la Corona, it is one of the wonders hidden in the bowels of Lanzarote, endowed with a mysterious and special character.

   1 hAdmission included

2. Los Jameos del Agua has its origin after the eruption of the Corona Volcano. The word “jameo” is of Guanche origin, and refers to the hole that occurs as a result of the collapse of the roof of a volcanic tube, in this case, the Corona volcanic tube. Those who do not wish to enter Jameos del Agua will be able to see the "Jameo Rearo", which is free and next to the sea. The underwater part of all these volcanic tubes is known as the "Atlantis Tunnel", one of the most important tunnels in the world. You can also enjoy some time at the "Playa de la Pequena", located at the back of Jameos del Agua, although it is not usually suitable for swimming due to the waves, you can sunbathe and get your feet wet.

Normally this is the place chosen by the guide to give free time to eat. (Food not included)

A spectacle of red craters, lava flows and lunar landscapes that reflect the burning of the earth and its uncontrollable force. Its 200 kilometers of extension are part of the Timanfaya National Park, where one of the largest volcanic activities in the world can be seen, both for the immense amount of materials thrown by the fire, and for its spectacular duration: six years between 1730 and 1736. where the bowels of the island did not stop roaring.

About Lanzarote

Lanzarote is the Canary Islands' volcanic island of black lava fields, white villages, vineyards in pits and landmarks shaped by the artist César Manrique.

Lanzarote is one of the easternmost of the Canary Islands, a volcanic island of lava fields, cones and a dry, sunny climate. Between 1730 and 1736 eruptions buried a number of villages, and Timanfaya National Park preserves that landscape of black and red craters, where guides show how the heat just beneath the ground can boil water. The artist César Manrique shaped much of the island's look, limiting building heights and keeping villages white with green and blue trim.
