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.

    Lovely friendly service from Daniel Ewing. Went on the 1/2 day tour to Mt Teide. Very enjoyable. Tour guide was very experienced and knowledgeable delivered plenty of information in 3 languages. Plenty of opportunities to stop, take photos, have a coffee etc. We didn't get to experience the cable car due to winds despite the fact that it was a lovely clear day. However, we were prepared for this possibility by both the travel office and the tour guide. Best of luck to the Rossi man in his new business venture. We hope it works out well for you.

    I could not recommend these guys enough ✨ We did this on one of our last days just to spread all our excursions out! It was absolutely amazing! The tour guides were so lovely and made sure we were safe but enjoying it at the same time. The views were breath taking! I would recommend to anyone going to Tenerife! We also had 3 other excursions booked (self hire boat, sun set tour and clear kayaking) with the team and they were all amazing! Dan booked us in for them all and he was so lovely! Made sure they were all worth our while! We had one excursion cancelled due to the weather and the team were amazing made sure we had our money back straight away and offered other excursions! The whole team are so helpful and active on socials if you needed to contact them. I can not recommend Tenerife first excursion enough! (Especially Dan in Los Cristos) Thank you so much we will definitely be using you guys again on our next trip to Tenerife ✨
