La Gomera is an island known for its natural landscapes, traditional villages, and historical sites related to its Columbian past. This full-day guided tour from Tenerife lasts about 10 hours and includes a ferry ride, a traditional Canarian lunch, and visits to several key locations on the island. The tour begins with hotel pickup around 7:00 AM and a transfer to Los Cristianos Harbour, where the group boards a Fred Olsen ferry to San Sebastián de La Gomera, the island's capital. Upon arrival, the tour follows the southern route with a short stop at Roque de Agando, a volcanic rock formation shaped by erosion over millions of years. Next, the group visits Garajonay National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1986, known for its laurel forest. Participants take a leisurely walk through this forest, which contains plant species dating back to the Cenozoic Era. The tour then continues to Agulo, a northern municipality with cobbled streets, tiled houses, and ocean views including the peak of El Teide in the distance. Returning to San Sebastián de La Gomera, the guide shows the old town with its historical significance, including links to Christopher Columbus. The tour stops at Torre del Conde, a medieval fortress and the oldest structure on the islands. Additional visits include the church of Nuestra Señora de la Asunción, the hermitage of San Sebastián from around 1530, and the Casa de la Aguada, known for its legendary well connected to Columbus. The city is noted for its traditional Canarian architecture and its patron saint, the Virgin of Guadalupe, whose procession attracts many visitors. Lunch is included during the tour, and guests will have the opportunity to hear a live demonstration of the silbo gomero, a whistled language used locally to communicate across ravines. The vehicle used has air conditioning for comfort. Tea, coffee, and breakfast are not included. Participants must bring passports for the ferry crossing.
