What to expect

This grand tour of Lanzarote leaves no stone unturned. ‘You'll unearth the secrets of this volcanic island through the eyes of someone who has made it their home,' says Daria, one of our expert guides. Discover the island's spectacular green north and the volcanic south, visiting Timanfaya National Park, Jameos del Agua caves and a winery along the way.

The fun starts with a trip to the subterranean salt lake at Jameos del Agua. This ancient volcanic cavern was converted into a bar and concert space by local architectural legend, Cesar Manrique. After lunch, you'll get to find out how grapes are grown at a volcanic soil winery. You'll sample one-of-a-kind local wines from La Geria, a unique wine-growing region created after the Timanfaya volcanic eruptions 300 years ago. Next up is the Salinas de Janubio salt flats where traditional methods are still in use. Seawater enters shallow basins, evaporates under the sun, and workers harvest the salt manually. These salt flats are a haven for migratory and coastal bird species.

Thanks to its otherworldly natural landscape, Lanzarote was declared a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve in 1993. And the star of the show here is undoubtedly Timanfaya National Park. Follow the famous Lunar Route and explore lava fields, volcano craters and steaming geysers as you learn about why the whole island has achieved this special UNESCO-listed status. Then, experience it up close as you feel the heat beneath your feet and witness brushwood burn into flames.

    This was a well organised tour with a good guide who had a great knowledge of the island, its history and the volcanic history. Personally the Timfanaya park was the highlight of the trip with the salt flats, whilst interesting was the least interesting attraction

    Our guide, who called himself Jorge Clooney, was excellent, as was the coach driver, Maria. A quick stop was made, in order to swap some passengers with another coach, in order for as many guests as possible to experience the tour guide's narration in their own language. Our coach had the narration in English and German. Timanfaya National park was stunning. Cave tour & salt works good. Wine tasting needs taking off the tour. Lunch better than expected.

    The tour was excellent. The guide never stopped and kept us all well informed. He even came looking for us when we went for a coffee at the caves. He didn’t want us to miss out on the Kings pool and the theatre in the cave. The tour itself was amazing to see so much of the volcanic area.

Nat Geo Day Tour: La Geria, viñedos que brotaron del fuego

Cuando en 1736 cesaron los seis largos años de erupciones del Timanfaya, los agricultores de La Geria creyeron que sus fértiles tierras se habían perdido para siempre bajo una gruesa capa de ceniza. Pero las familias locales necesitaban hacer que la tierra volviera a ser productiva y, a base de trabajo duro y determinación, consiguieron crear los viñedos de La Geria. Empezarás con un paseo panorámico, recorriendo senderos a través de viñedos privados pertenecientes a la bodega familiar de Nacho Romero, abiertos en exclusiva para los visitantes de National Geographic. Mientras te empapas del carácter excepcional de estos paisajes en los que los viñedos están rodeados de volcanes, el propietario te explicará cómo la capa de ceniza volcánica, conocida localmente como «picón», ha moldeado sus métodos de cultivo, únicos en el mundo. Si tienes la suerte de encontrarlas maduras, incluso podrás recoger uvas directamente de la vid mientras Nacho o su mujer, Luisa, ambos enólogos, te habla de las peculiares características del vino volcánico. Ya de vuelta tras el paseo, podrás probar uno de los vinos artesanales que Nacho y Luisa elaboran en su bodega casera. A continuación, te dirigirás a la bodega La Geria, otro elemento importante del movimiento para la elaboración de vinos ecológicos. El enólogo en persona te mostrará la bodega. Descubrirás los secretos de los «zocos» que protegen las viñas del viento y las distintas variedades de uva que prosperan en el terruño volcánico de Lanzarote. Para terminar, catarás uno de los vinos populares de la finca, acompañado con queso local y galletas saladas.
