Were the sky not blue in Lanzarote, you'd think you were on the Moon or Mars. They're both a bit far away but Lanzarote is just 30 minutes by boat from Fuerteventura, which is a short time to travel for an otherworldly experience. You'll visit Timanfaya National Park, El Golfo and a winery – all in one day.
After an early pick-up, we'll go to the port to board the ferry to Playa Blanca. The action starts straight away with a visit to Timanfaya National Park, which is home to a third of the island's 100 volcanoes. Admire eerie landscapes of fantastic forms in shades maroon, red, grey and black. You'll also be treated to a few party tricks courtesy of the geothermic earth below you.
On the park's coastal edge, head to El Golfo to see the green lagoon at the back of a black beach and the nearby Hervideros cliffs. They were formed by molten lava pouring into the sea. There's a stop to learn all about the benefits of aloe vera. Rounding off the day is a wine tasting in La Geria.

Truly awful!! The volcano park is worth a visit but I’d advise you not to go on this trip. It’s a tourist trap at its worst. I’d booked it because I thought you had 3 hours at the volcano park to properly view the landscape. The reality was that you got 20 minutes of demonstrations before you were put back on the bus and driven around. This meant that you could only view the scenery from one side of the coach while classical music was played at high volume. There was then a 10 minute wine tasting, a stop for lunch at an awful cafe, (the one next to the wine tasting place looked lovely but presumably not enough commission to stop there?), and then half an hour at an “Aloe Vera” museum which was reasonably interesting. Final stop was 20 minutes at the “green lake” which was actually brown that day? It felt as if you were herded from one place to another and I regret wasting a day of my holiday on this. My advice would be to see the volcanos another way.

We took a day trip from Calete de Fueste to Lanzarote to see the volcanic national park.
It didn’t disappoint.
Not only did we experience the wonder of the volcanic activity in the area, we also learned about the production of aloe Vera products and were able to taste some local wine.
It was a wonderful day!

The trip was bit too short. The guide didn’t give much information on the history of the island. The wine tasting is a joke - we got just a few drops of one type of wine. I wouldn’t book this excursion again. The best part was certainly the mind blowing views of Lanzarote.

Initially, a guided tour planned in English and on site, we had a French-speaking guide...
Very well organized circuit, magnificent landscape...

It is nice to see the place (Lanzarote), although there is absolutely no chance to see much of the park ,only through the glass of a coach. It is rushed and very superficial tour.

We spent a lot of time collecting people from different places before the ferry. The actual tour in Lanzarote lasted about 5 hours. The Timanfaya park was amazing, great experience for a life-time. Unfortunately Hervideros cliffs was left out. There was no notice about this. This was a dissapointment. Anyway I think there is no other way to see more in such a short time. I am happy to take this tour. It was worth the money.

A very nice staff Team, dedicated to their job and their customer tourists, able to show 100% of what is offered in their company's offer. Thanks to that I will remember many details of the trip.
