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.

    SUNSET View and sunset was amazing! Nice and smooth quad bike drive up the mountain with multiple stops to talk about the mountain and the history of eruptions. Photographer took 500+ photos of everyone for all to download. Was the best experience of my life. If you get the chance do it!

    Sunset, stars & moon! Booked from the UK over Facebook with Ross, communication was brilliant and the booking system was very efficient. Great experience would highly recommend. The meal was very basic and not really a 3 course it was just a bread roll, chicken or fish with rice and potatoes then a small portion of a dessert. The kids loved their homemade chicken nuggets though but make sure you request them as soon as you arrive! (Take snacks for younger children).The tour was brilliant and the tour guide really know their stuff! We were so glad we decided to do this trip as it’s something we will remember forever! Thank you Laurie Delisle

    Awesome, WOW!! I booked through Sarah at the Los Christianos branch, she made the whole process of choosing which activities I wanted to do and then the actual booking so easy, this is my 3rd time of booking through this branch and I won't go through anyone else when I visit Tenerife now. They are always most helpful, friendly, and non-pushy for a sale company i have used. I've done the dolphins and whale watching before and this trip the Mustang tiede tour and 1000M paragliding experience and I want to do both again I loved it so much!! Just WOW! Thank you Sarah!

    An amazing night in Tenerife with Stars & Ski Picked us up on time- The dinner was nice, simple Spanish food. They were very organised and everything was done properly, really appreciate their knowledge of stars and ski , felt so happy did this, something different and very interesting! Most importantly was freezing cold so glad they told us in advance to wear very warm clothing, please everyone who wants to do this remember to have few layers of cloths to able to enjoy the night otherwise it would be very uncomfortable. I would personally do this again in another visit to see the ski at another time of the year ,,, thank you so such an amazing experience, worth every penny!
