See the best of Gran Canaria's sunny, south coast on this tuk-tuk tour. You'll travel along one of the island's oldest roads to reveal its hidden viewpoints, visit one of the biggest banana plantations, and round off with a poke around the sleepy town of Arguineguín and its street market. Ana, one of our expert local guides, says, ‘The name Arguineguín comes from the Guanche for ‘quiet water,' because it was once just a humble fishing village. These days, Arguineguín is known for its beaches and colourful street market.'
Hop onboard your environmentally friendly tuk-tuk and you'll leave Playa del Ingles behind with the wind in your hair. Your first stop, a banana plantation, offers panoramic views overlooking the coast and the chance to find out about banana cultivation in the Canaries. Learn about the history of the farm, and see the banana plantations as well as the range of products made with bananas.
It's off to Arguineguín next. With its pretty harbour and laid-back Canarian feel, you'll enjoy some free time to use at your leisure. Check out the beaches, watch the local fishermen bring in their catch of the day or shop for trinkets and handicraft at the street market. Once you are finished browsing the stalls piled high with local produce, it's time to head back to base. You'll stop by a nearby archaeological site on your way back, to learn about the island's history.
