What to expect

Two very different Lanzarote experiences share equal billing in this Sunday morning tour. You'll get to spend time mixing with locals in Teguise's market – the biggest outdoor bazaar in the Canaries – and lapping up the Hollywood stardust of the legendary LagOmar. Ramona, one of our local guides, says, ‘LagOmar is one of my favourite places – a spectacular artwork-museum-house, where you can admire the genius of Manrique and Soto.'

More than 360 stalls cram into Teguise's pretty plaza and adjacent cobbled streets, so you'll be spoilt for choice. Cue tables creaking with intricate Canarian lacework, foodstuffs and all sorts of jewellery, paintings and handicrafts. And it's all given a carnival atmosphere by local folk dancers, hair braiders and panpipe bands. What's more, any purchases help the local economy and community. Ramona says, ‘Teguise Sunday market isn't just about shopping – you can feel the real Canarian way of living, with bars, cafés and the history of this beautiful former capital of Lanzarote.'

If the market is a feast of the senses, the LagOmar is a feast for your eyes. It was conceived by local architect Cesar Manrique and designed by local artist Jesus Soto. Set in a volcanic quarry, it looks like the sort of place where Bond arch-villain Ernst Blofeld plots world domination. The labyrinthine complex has a cave-bar, a restaurant, apartments and a museum. Local lore says it was briefly owned by Hollywood legend Omar Sharif, but he lost it in a game of cards.

Lanzarote coast to coast tour

No man is an island, but Lanzarote is an island that owes a lot to one man. The legacy of artist and architect Cesar Manrique is everywhere. On this land and sea tour, you'll visit LagOmar, the Cactus Garden – one of Manrique's emblematic creations – and the small volcanic island of La Graciosa.Manrique's buildings and sculptures dot the island, and it's thanks to him that there are no high-rises. LagOmar, once owned by Omar Sharif, is a complex designed to evoke the Arabian Nights tales, though it also has the air of a Bond villain lair. It also features a cave-bar, a restaurant, apartments and a museum.Next, you'll visit the Cactus Garden, where Manrique landscaped more than 7,000 cactuses of all shapes and sizes. Then, hop on a boat and sail to La Graciosa, a volcanic island surrounded by Europe's largest marine reserve. Afterwards, you'll enjoy lunch and some free time on its virgin beaches.
