We'll begin our excursion at the northern part of the island at the Finca Torres to learn about local goat cheese production. The internationally renowned goat cheeses produced in Fuerteventura have been awarded the highest "Golden Cheese Award" for five consecutive years. At the end of our tour, we'll enjoy a tasting of this famous delicacy. We'll then continue on to the small village of Tiscamanita to visit a cosmetics producer who uses aloe vera, one of the most prominent crops on the island. We'll learn about the plant's surprising healing powers, and you'll be able to purchase products. Next stop will be Betancuria, founded by French explorer Jean de Béthencourt at the beginning of the 15th century. He chose the area within the valley to be protected from pirate attacks.

This excursion is a trip through Garanojay National Park. The park is named after the Alto de Garajonay, the island’s highest summit, and is listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The park has an excellent example of subtropical forests, known as the laurisilva. We’ll then pass through the quaint villages of Hermigua and Agulo, two typical island towns. After colonization, the Europeans built a port in this area to export the sugar they were producing. The El Cedro Forest in Hermigua feels like something out of a fairytale. Agulo—whose sweet charm led to the nickname “The Bonbon of La Gomera”—has cobblestone streets and quaint houses that are reflections of the local architecture. We’ll stop a restaurant to enjoy a refreshment and listen to a demonstration of Silbo Gomero, the whistled language used by the islanders.

Timanfaya National Park, which occupies 25% of the island, is an amazingly surreal place to visit. The Fire Mountains in the park possess a singular beauty. Before the eruptions, this area contained vast, fertile grounds. Today, the zone is covered with lava, ash, and dust. Nevertheless, nature continues to persist in some beautiful and unique ways. We’ll enjoy a panoramic tour of the park to see as much of the changing landscape as possible before reaching the Islote de Hilario. Here, we’ll take part in geothermic demonstrations and learn about the immeasurable energy stored within the earth. After, we’ll hit the Volcano Route on our return and cross the through Geria, which contains thousands of semicircle stone-and-rock vineyards patiently built by winegrowers over the years. We’ll finish up with a tasting of wine at one of the oldest bodegas on the island.
