What to expect

Experience the magic of a mesmerising night under the stars in Gran Canaria with the freedom and flexibility of a self-drive tour. Begin your evening at a panoramic viewpoint, taking in a spectacular sunset above the clouds, then drive along winding mountain roads to reach the stargazing site. Here, you can enjoy the celestial spectacle and leave at your leisure, or stay longer under the star-filled sky and watch the magic unfold.

You'll meet your guide at Mirador del Pico de las Nieves. Perched 1949m above sea level, this spot offers awe-inspiring views above the clouds, with both Mount Teide in Tenerife and Pico de las Nieves in Gran Canaria visible on the horizon. As you admire the breathtaking sunset, enjoy a welcome drink of cava or juice. Next, venture deeper into the heart of the island to the stargazing spot at Llanos de la Pez for an unforgettable experience.

With minimal light pollution and some of the world's clearest skies, the Canary Islands are a premier stargazing destination. Using powerful telescopes, expert guides will introduce you to planets, galaxies, nebulae, and star clusters. You'll also enjoy a laser-guided constellation tour, view live deep-sky photography, discover intriguing stories about the universe, and receive a professional night-sky photo taken using advanced astrophotography techniques.

Romeria del Pino celebration in Teror with transport

Every September, the town of Teror comes alive for one of Gran Canaria's biggest and most-loved celebrations – the Romería del Pino. This is your chance to see Teror at its most vibrant, as thousands of locals gather to honour the island's patron saint, Our Lady of the Pine. The streets fill with the sounds of folk bands, traditional dancing and lively parades. Groups from across the Canary Islands make their way through town dressed in traditional Canarian outfits, from embroidered skirts and shawls to waistcoats, hats and bright sashes, while decorated carts piled high with local produce and gifts form part of the procession. You'll have time to wander around, browse market stalls and try regional classics like chorizo de Teror, local cheeses and sweet pastries, all while soaking up traditions that have been part of Canarian life for centuries. Getting there and back is taken care of, leaving you free to enjoy the sights, sounds and flavours of one of Gran Canaria's most cherished traditions.
