What to expect

Puerto de Mogan is said by many to be the most beautiful town in Gran Canaria, and once you've set eyes on its toytown houses, it's hard to argue. This tour brings you by boat, docking right in the heart of the harbour after a scenic approach, so you avoid long walks from out-of-town parking lots. Maria, one of our expert local guides, says, ‘Mogan's Friday market is a classic in Gran Canaria, known all over the island. And to arrive in the town by boat gives you that a spine-tingling sensation you get in anticipation of a special experience.'

Sailing from Puerto Rico harbour, you'll glide along the rocky, volcanic coastline of the south before arriving at Puerto de Mogan. Cupped into cliffs at the mouth of a steep valley, it's known as ‘Little Venice' for its canal, blue-and-yellow-trimmed white cottages, wrought iron balconies and flower-festooned lanes. Traits that have made it very popular.

Arriving by boat, you're in the middle of all the action straight away. Only we bring you to and from Puerto de Mogan by sea. Antonio, another of our local guides, say, ‘If you arrive by coach, not only is the journey less scenic but you have to walk a fair bit to get to the waterfront.' You'll have free time to relax at one of the many terraced cafés overlooking the yachts. Visit on a Friday and you can browse the market selling typical Canarian products. Oh, and there's also an enticing sandy beach to stretch out on, too.

    Der Abholort stimmt überhaupt nicht mit dem tatsächlichen überein. Axel Beach ist nicht die gleiche Straße wie Plaza Telde. Dazwischen liegen eine Straßenkreuzung und ca. 200 Meter. Glücklicherweise haben wir das noch rechtzeitig geschafft. Der Reiseführer war ok, hätte mir gewünscht er hätte etwas zur Umgebung erzählt . Stattdessen war er in intensiven Gesprächen mit dem Busfahrer verwickelt. Rest war top !

    Obwohl von 56 Personen 52 davon Deutsche waren wurde 80 % der Erklärungen auf Englisch geführt. Fast keine Informationen über Land und Leute. Insgesamt sehr enttäuschend, der Preis hierfür unangemessen.

    Reiseleitung naja...keine Nachfrage wie war es bei Rückreise...könnte mehr lächeln und wenigstens so machen das ihr der Beruf Spaß macht. Ausflug selbst sehr schön, doch Zeit einfach zu kurz. 13 Uhr zurück ist definitiv zu früh und eine Hetzerei wenn man den Ort und Markt erkunden möchte.
