Free Tour of Las Canteras
Overview of the tour in Gran Canaria
We will meet outside the Poema de Mar aquarium to start exploring the north of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria. Little by little, we will enter one of the most special and less touristy corners of the capital of Gran Canaria.
During the free tour, we will walk through this bay located in the protected environment of La Isleta. We will tell you about the origins of these volcanic lands while we walk through one of the largest peninsulas in the Canary archipelago.
We will discover the military uses that this area has had and we will also learn about the aboriginal past of this place. How did you live in Gran Canaria before being conquered by the Crown of Castile? We will reveal it to you!
We will also visit Santa Catalina Park and the Las Canteras beach promenade while we review the history of this area of the capital of Gran Canaria. We will discover how it has evolved to become one of the most touristic spots on the island.
Our accredited guides, specialists in Historical Heritage, will make you learn, but above all, have fun. Book now at Arkeo Tour®!

Things to note
The crisis caused by the coronavirus has forced all businesses to transform their products and services in order to offer the highest levels of safety, responsibility and quality to their customers.
Therefore, in accordance with state and regional regulations, from Arkeo Tour® we have implemented 6 essential and mandatory measures in all our activities:
1) Our guided tours are carried out only with small groups (maximum 29 people including the guide). In this way, we achieve a better organization and management of the group, and a separation of at least 2 meters between each person.
2) Our itineraries have been designed to avoid possible crowds and escape from confined spaces. In addition, they are one-way routes to avoid crossing with other groups. Our guides coordinate live to share information on less crowded itineraries.
3) All our guides have been trained in health risk prevention and the fight against coronavirus. The person in charge of the guides and the person in charge of customer service make up the Arkeo Tour® risk management committee and carry out a daily monitoring of the safety measures.
4) In all our guided tours we use voice transmission and amplification equipment. In this way we guarantee the highest quality in the guide's explanations and we can maintain a safe distance between group members.
5) Our team uses approved masks in all our activities and is carried out in daily control of the temperature of each of the guides. Likewise, we will have hydroalcoholic gel for the use of all our users.
6) We have digitized the entire reservation service, thus avoiding the transfer of documents between people. The reservation confirmation can be downloaded from any mobile phone to show the guide at the beginning of the visit. The sending of brochures and information is now also done completely telematically.
