FROM GRAN CANARIA, CANARY ISLANDS CITY STAY IN GRAN CANARIA 2-NIGHT PRE & POST PROGRAM Just 800 miles off the coast of Europe, Gran Canaria offers a little slice of Spanish paradise. This island, just 29 miles across, boasts diverse terrain, climate, and attractions, earning it the moniker of the “Miniature Continent”—the perfect place to spend two days in complete exploration. Walk down the tree-lined streets of lush historic Arucas and Agaete, taking a moment to breathe in the floral air or savor a cup of locally grown coffee. Tour the mountainous interior of the Island, particularly in Los Pechos, stopping to soak in the impressive views of the neighboring island, Tenerife. And of course, dine on the regional specialties of Canarian cuisine and even try your hand at making their beloved condiment, Mojo Sauce. From geologic wonders like Roque de Nublo to centuries-old archaeological settlements, you will find a world’s worth of experiences on this small island. HIGHLIGHTS: • Los Pechos: The highest point on the island, Los Pechos offers views of Gran Canaria and Spain’s highest mountain, El Teide, located on the neighboring island of Tenerife. • Roque de Nublo: An iconic symbol of Gran Canaria, this enormous basalt monolith, formed during the Pleistocene era, stands over 70 meters tall and is a must-see. • Agaete: Take in the beauty of the island from this traditional Canarian town, and visit Europe’s only coffee-producing plantation, where you’ll sample local specialties and make Mojo sauce, a Canarian favorite. • Arucas: Pretty and compact, Arucas offers pedestrian- friendly streets lined with elegant historic buildings and superb flower-filled gardens, such as the beautiful Parque Municipal de Arucas de las Flores.
