The north and its history

We visit the fascinating Jameos del Agua, designed by César Manrique, look out over the void from Mirador del Río and finish with a stroll through the historic centre of Teguise, the island’s former capital.

A good fit if… Art, views and history appeal to you more than volcanoes.

    I have had private tour guides from Thailand to Alaska – Claudia Hernandez is one of the best. She planned our day in Northern Lanzarote so that we saw all of the amazing sites in a way where we could fully enjoy them while staying right on schedule. Claudia’s explanations were clear and in-depth when we asked questions ranging from history to geology. Some of our group of six only spoke English while others only spoke Spanish. Our guide, Claudia, moved easily between both while giving us great explanations. Our tour was so successful that we requested her for our tour of the south, which was even more spectacular. She knows her subjects thoroughly and was very pleasant.

    ¡Una experiencia genial! Claudia, nuestra guía, es encantadora. Desde el primer momento fue súper amable, cercana y muy atenta con nosotros, siempre pendiente de que estuviéramos a gusto y de si necesitábamos cualquier cosa. Se nota que disfruta de lo que hace y consigue que la excursión sea mucho más especial, enseñándote Lanzarote de una forma cercana y agradable. Nos sentimos muy cómodos durante toda la experiencia y disfrutamos muchísimo. Sin duda, si volvemos a Lanzarote, repetiríamos una excursión con ella. La recomendamos totalmente a cualquiera que quiera conocer la isla de la mano de alguien amable, profesional y que te hace sentir bien cuidado durante todo el recorrido. ¡Gracias, Claudia! ❤️

    Hay experiencias que se olvidan al día siguiente y hay otras que, sencillamente, te reconfiguran por dentro. Realizar esta ruta con Claudia no ha sido un simple recorrido de senderismo; ha sido una travesía casi mística por el alma volcánica de Lanzarote. Claudia no se limita a guiarte por un terreno; tiene la capacidad única de hacer hablar a la tierra. Su magnetismo, su conocimiento absoluto del paisaje y la sensibilidad con la que transmite la historia del fuego y el viento convierten el camino en algo sagrado. Logra que cada paso tenga sentido y que el tiempo se detenga por completo. Decir que ha sido la mejor experiencia de mi vida se queda corto: ha sido, honestamente, una experiencia casi religiosa. Si Lanzarote es una isla con alma, Claudia es la custodia de su secreto. Encontrar a alguien con esa luz, esa pasión y esa presencia es un privilegio absolutamente exclusivo. Gracias, Claudia, por reescribir lo que significa caminar por el mundo.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS · 5

What people ask me mostabout this tour

Which places does this route visit?

Jameos del Agua, Mirador del Río and Teguise village. The order and time at each stop are adapted to your day and confirmed in your proposal.

Who is this tour ideal for?

Ideal if you are drawn more to art, views and history than to volcanoes. It is private: only your group, up to 10 people.

Can I do it on a cruise day?

The 4-hour routes usually fit a port call best. Send me the ship, date, arrival and all-aboard times and I’ll confirm whether it fits with a margin.

Are entrance fees included?

No. Entrance fees for the tourist centres and the National Park are paid separately. The tour includes an official guide, professional driver, vehicle, insurance and the booked time.

Where does the tour start?

I pick you up at your accommodation, anywhere on the island, and take you back. From Playa Blanca the drive to the sights is longer and may take a little time off the visit. If you arrive by cruise, tell me the ship and times.
