César Manrique Tour of Lanzarote
César Manrique Tour Itinerary
Having picked you up from the area closest to your hotel in Lanzarote at the designated time, we'll make our way to Mozaga, located in the centre of the island.
In this village, we'll see the first of César Manrique's works on this tour dedicated to the legacy he left on the island. We'll take in the "Monumento al Campesino" (Monument to the Peasant), a homage to rural life. Inside, we'll appreciate the various tools used in local agriculture, then continue, passing through Teguise and continuing to Haria, where we'll stop to admire the natural beauty of the Valle de las Mil Palmeras (Thousand Palm Valley). Then, we'll make our way to the northwestern part of the island.
Our next stop is at the El Rio Viewpoint, designed by César Manrique. Its viewing galleries and panoramic terraces allow spectacular views of La Graciosa island, the largest in the Chinijo archipelago. At 2 pm, we'll make a stop in the North of Lanzarote, where you'll be free to have lunch at your own pace and enjoy the delicious Canarian food.
After lunch, we'll head towards the Jameos del Agua, one of the most magical places on the island. This area of the island serves as a habitat for an endemic species: tiny blind and albino crabs. In addition, inside the Jameos del Agua, you can also visit some of the works designed by César Manrique: an auditorium, a swimming pool, a restaurant, and gardens.
Then, we'll head to Tahíche to see the César Manrique Foundation. Here, we can visit the Volcano House, where the artist himself lived. It's a unique space with swimming pools, gardens, and even a dancefloor!
From here, we'll return to the area of your hotel, arriving after a total of around 8.5 to 10 hours.
