  The most informative and fun guided tour I’ve ever been to, only can recommend! Simon indeed knows EVERYTHING about the island and it’s locals. The cheese merchant the parfume museo... read more is a must to visit!

  He is taking trips to whole next level. Trip took almost 8 hours, we werent bored for even 2 minutes. Big knowledge, interesting way of explaining - great guy!

  Simon has a great personality. He has an encyclopaedic knowledge of all matters concerning Gran Canaria. We went to a coffee place, explored the mountains and ended up eating some... read more fantastic sea food in Agaete. We had such a warm time with Simon I now regard his as a friend. Ours was a private tour of friends. Simon put together a tour to suit all of us from a 7 year old to a 64 year old (me). Look no further than Simon tours for an authentic Gran Canaria experience. PS great value too …

  Simon greeted us in our hotel lobby and equipped us with wireless ear phones to enable us to walk around and hear his narrative on the move. His clear love... read more of the Canaries and his detailed knowledge of their history and culture shone through his clear commentary. The trip gave us exactly what we were looking for. A real sense of the island while moving around in it and enjoying great views. We stopped often to take short walks to absorb the often stunning views and understand many aspects of island life. Simons deep familiarity with all things Canarian provided a wonderful context for the sights we were seeing. It is not possible to gain the insights into Gran Canaria life and appreciate the links of the scenery to historic events and cultural objectives by self guiding with a rental car.
A thoroughly enjoyable and interesting day.

  Simon was very knowledgeable and entertained us throughout. Took us to some intriguing places. Would definitely recommend this trip.

  We made a half-day log trip with Simon. He informed us well, took us at noon from our residence and brought us back home in the evening. In his car... read more we felt safe and comfortable, even on adventurous roads, rocky, curvy or up through the clouds with only a few meters of sight.

As we wished, he brought us to the Petroglyphs at the archaeological site of Balos. Breathtaking rocks from Lava with ancient stone carvings by the Guanches (and sadly also some much younger legacies).

In the beautiful old town Aguimes we learned how to drink coffee the Canarian way in the sweet Bar
"El Populacho" and saw very special sculptures.

Then to Pico de las Nieves, the the highest peak of Gran Canaria, with a magic view on fabulous rocks and trees, in between clouds were floating, pure magic, like in a fairy tale.

Later to Roque Nublo, climbing by foot up the mountain exactly in time for sunset, watching it from above a sea of clouds. It was super exciting, much more than expected. It felt like we travelled to another planet.

Simon has a wide knowledge, he offers information and stories on Canarian history and present, mentality and culture, in an easy way. It´s a pleasure to chat with him. He is kind, attentive and knows when to give his customers some space and privacy.

Looking forward to traveling with Simon again!
