La Gomera Island Tour from Tenerife

Discover the stunning island of La Gomera on this unforgettable full-day tour from Tenerife, featuring breathtaking landscapes, Garajonay National Park, traditional Canarian villages, local cuisine and return ferry travel with Fred. Olsen Express included.

Description

Discover the breathtaking beauty, culture and history of La Gomera on this unforgettable full-day excursion from Tenerife. Your adventure begins with pick-up from your selected meeting point before travelling to the Port of Los Cristianos, where you will board the comfortable Fred. Olsen Express ferry bound for San Sebastián de La Gomera, the island’s charming capital.

After arriving on the island, the tour continues along the scenic southern route with a stop at the impressive Roque de Agando, one of La Gomera’s most iconic volcanic rock formations. Rising dramatically from the landscape, this natural monument offers spectacular views and a fascinating glimpse into the island’s volcanic origins.

The journey then heads into the heart of Garajonay National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site famous for its ancient laurel forests. Enjoy a peaceful walk surrounded by lush greenery and unique flora that dates back millions of years. This magical forest is one of the best-preserved examples of subtropical laurel forest in the world and offers a truly unforgettable connection with nature.

At lunchtime, you will visit the welcoming Las Rosas Restaurant, where you can enjoy a traditional Gomero lunch included in the price. Experience authentic island cuisine in a warm and family-friendly atmosphere.

After lunch, discover the fascinating tradition of the Silbo Gomero, the island’s unique whistled language recognised by UNESCO. Used for centuries by locals to communicate across deep valleys, it remains one of La Gomera’s most treasured cultural traditions.

The tour continues through picturesque villages including Hermigua, known for its beautiful valley landscapes, banana plantations and vineyards, before reaching the stunning coastal village of Agulo. Often referred to as “the bonbon of La Gomera,” Agulo is famous for its cobbled streets, traditional Canarian houses and spectacular ocean views with Mount Teide visible in the distance.

Later, you will return to San Sebastián de La Gomera, a historic town closely linked to Christopher Columbus and his voyages to the New World. Explore its charming streets and discover historic landmarks such as the Torre del Conde, the Church of Our Lady of the Assumption and Casa de la Aguada.

At the end of the day, you will board the ferry back to Tenerife and head back to your original pick-up point. During the crossing, keep an eye on the ocean as with a little luck, you may spot dolphins or pilot whales in the waters between the islands.

    Fiat 500 Boats and Monkey Park We visited a couple of days ago and was greeted by Lorena who was excellent at finding the best trips. She also gave her number to us incase we needed to contact her regarding any of our excursions, we also got 20% voucher for chillbox and 10% voucher for Banging Burgers since we booked with these guys. We had booked the Fiat 500 Boat ride - 1 hour and it truly a experience that we will not be forgetting any time soon the staff down at the docks where very friendly and talked us all through the steps of how the boat worked and kept in contact if we went out of range. We also paid the extra 20 euros for the professional photos that they took of us We also purchased tickets for the monkey park which is a great affordable trip we got a taxi to the monkey park as we wasn’t staying anywhere near it and the park it’s self was just amazing so many different animals not just monkeys and so many great pictures was taken got straight through to entrance instead of queuing as we had purchased the ticket from Tenerife First Excursions Such a great couple of days of excursions will definitely be back to book more trips in the future.

    Libby Sailing Boat Private Charter We booked a private charter on the new libby sailing boat with Lisafay and we couldn’t have been happier, 3 hours sailing around seeing dolphins, turtles and pilot whales. Our captain then took us off to a little cove where we went snorkelling and paddle boarding! Thanks to Lisafay for sorting this trip for us after a stressful day of being messed around trying to hire a boat at short notice!

    Made our holiday The most amazing experience. Pick up was easy and on time, you then drive to the restaurant. Food is incredibly basic but you don’t go to an excursion like this for food. We then went up into the national parks before sunset to enjoy a glass of cava and take pictures above the cloud line. From there, we went up further to observe the night sky- no spoilers. Incredible experience, the best thing we did this holiday. The guys are so knowledgeable, answer any of your questions, and help you see through the telescopes. You can tell they are so passionate about their jobs, it is their hobby too. Don’t hesitate. Book this if you’re in Tenerife.
