A visit to two of the most enchanting and historic towns in the Canary Islands, Puerto de la Cruz and La Orotava. In La Orotava we will stroll through the old town centre, with its beautiful churches packed with sacred art and imagery. We will peep inside traditional noble homes which are now the heart of Tenerife's famous craft and drawn linen work and I shall tell you about the famous sand carpets. Puerto is regarded as Spain's original tourist resort although it maintains its old-time charm as a walk through the pretty town will show. It was the destination for many Victorian travellers on their way to other worlds and therefore there are plenty of anecdotes to share about what they said and did on the island. If requested we could also visit the charming Orchid Gardens, where so many famous travellers took time to write their diaries, like the English artist Marianne North, Agatha Christie or the great German explorer, Alexander von Humboldt.
9am - (or other agreed time) - I will collect you from our meeting point, your hotel or in the port if you are on a cruise. 09. 30am Stop at the von Humboldt viewing point for views and explanations. 10am - Visit the old town centre of La Orotava. You might also like to do some shopping at the craft centres. 12am - We then enjoy a stroll through the old fishing port of Puerto de la Cruz, and, if requested, visit the orchid gardens or take a delicious tapas lunch at one of the port's traditional inns. 3pm - Return to your ship or hotel.

Our mode of transport is a modern, comfortable 5-seater, air conditioned vehicle. Please bear in mind that if you require a vehicle with more space, or if there are more passengers, I usually hire a larger vehicle. NOTE: It is best to ask me before booking a tour if there is availability for a larger vehicle. This may also mean an increased fee because the island is having record numbers of visitors, and rental cars are difficult to come by at a reasonable price just now .
