Two weeks of visit to the Canary Islands

Visit the historic centre of La Laguna and take a refreshing break in one of the many wineries on the beautiful pedestrian streets, then take the wine route towards Tacoronte. Push to the picturesque village of Taganana at the north point, to enjoy your first sun bath at the foot of the cliffs of São Bento, on a beautiful beach of rocky volcanic black sand under the sun. Take a drink at the top to enjoy the view. For the return journey, go to the heart of the massif of Anaga, succumb to the gentle freshness of the pine forest and the spectacular views of the road of the ridges towards Santa Cruz. Once in the capital, dare offer you a good table in this little tourist city, to familiarize yourself with the best of Canary gastronomy.

Discover the Teide. Start by visiting the picturesque village of La Orotava, then take the road from the village up to the entrance of El Portillo Park. On the way, stop at one of the many scenic restaurants along the road. Cheap and very typical, they offer a view of the valley not to be missed. The ascent is marked by watchtowers and rocky features, you pass in the middle of the pine forest before reaching the summit, more peeled. The road towards the cable car passes through lunar landscapes. Then opt for the 2-hour walk to Roque de Garcia which makes a loop. Then take the road to Santiago to go down again, just before sunset to admire the islands of La Palma, El Hierro and La Gomera over a sea of clouds, then you will pass through your first lava field, the one that almost swallowed the village below. Head for the coastal road to Puerto de la Cruz! You will dine in a typical and colourful alleyway of the Muelle, and have a drink on Plaza del Charco.

Explore the centre of Puerto de la Cruz, the old port and its fishing district, and hop to you in the Piscinas del Lago Sunny - this oasis of water and tropical vegetation designed by the great Canary artist César Manrique. Eat on site in a restaurant near muelle. Take the coastal road towards Icod de los Vinos to admire the magnificent millennial dragonnier visible from the village square. Follow your road Garachico, another village that deserves a small walk in the historic pedestrian centre. Then take the typical road of the Teno massif, passing through Buenaventura, and push up to the lighthouse of the Teno, at the western tip of the island. Take a short walk in the forest and sleep in a typical rural home.

Take a boat trip from Los Cristianos to the south of Tenerife. Visit San Sebastián, its small pedestrian streets and the picturesque villages of Agulo and Hermigua. Enjoy the beautiful black sand beach of La Caleta. Sleep on site.

Explore the Garajonay National Park on foot or by car. Go through El Cedro to climb into the pine forest. This village is the starting point for many walks. After a day busy, eat in a good Canary table in Hermigua. Sleep on site.

Go to Vallehermoso, visit the moulin mill, then go to Alojera to spend one night in the heart of this wild island, in a small fishing village. Take advantage of the superb panoramic view from the top of the road.

Head back to the roads of Garajonay Park, then descend to Playa de Santiago, to relax on the beach in the afternoon or enjoy some activities. Take the boat to San Sebastián or drive there for one last night. Fly back to Gran Canaria. If you prefer hiking and a taste for it, go to El Hierro or La Palma, accessible by boat.

Start the day by relaxing on the beautiful white sandy beach of Maspalomas, with the sea of dunes in the background. In the afternoon, do not miss a visit to the superb city of Las Palmas, without missing the Casa de Colón and the other exceptional museums in the historic centre of Vegueta and Triana, including the Canario Museum for its exhibition on the Guanches, this primitive pre-Hispanic people. Take the opportunity to buy your souvenirs. Treat yourself to a good meal for this last evening, then go for a drink in a lively bar in San Telmo.

From Las Palmas, pass through the typical village of Terror, then climb up through Vega de San Mateo to reach the circular road traced at the top of the island. Don't miss the island's summit, the Pozo de las Nieves, and the short hike (45 minutes) that leads to the foot of Roque Nublo, a gigantic monolith. From there, let yourself be carried away by the majestic view over a large part of the island and the peak of Teide, on Tenerife just opposite. Go eat at Tejeda. Take a detour to the troglodyte village of Artenara before descending to the beautiful village of San Bartolomé. The road then splits to lead to Santa Lucia or Fataga. Whatever your choice (we recommend Fataga), the road will be incredibly steep. For your last moment on the island, enjoy the last rays of sunshine on Maspalomas beach very close to the road you have just gone down. Take one last dive into the ocean before dinner on the terrace.

Transfer to Fuerteventura. This desert island is the most famous for its heavenly beaches. Choose the north of the island to stay, enjoy wild turquoise beaches, experience surfing or kitesurfing and enjoy fresh fish. And don't forget to visit the Isla de los Lobos

Spend a full day visiting the island's interior (Betancuria, Antigua in the morning, visit the picturesque churches), push your road trip to the Jandia peninsula, at the end of the world, to the village of Cofete: you will pass through magnificent landscapes, sand deserts and turquoise water lagoons!

You can arrive by boat from Corralejo. Lanzarote is very volcanic even though its highest peak is one of the lowest in the Canary Islands, it is known for the National National Park, a hot lava field to some points that visit half a day. The rest of the day, go through El Golfo (eat it), then the coastal road that passes through the saltworks, to Playa de Papagayo. Enjoy this beautiful white sandy beach before you go to Playa Blanca. Sleep on site.

The next day, explore the north of the island. Start with the César Manrique Foundation near Arrecife, before visiting the Cueva de los Handcrafts. Take the visit to the Mirador del Río which dominates La Graciosa and the coasts of Lanzarote and then sleep in Lloret, the historic centre of the island.

Spend half a day in La Graciosa or discover the Vins wine route. If you like surfing, you prefer La Caleta de Famara, a village that is also very authentic.
