Grand Tour of the Canary Islands: The Only Tailor-Made French-Speaking Circuit Across the Islands

Table of Contents

Dreaming of an unforgettable journey through the Canary Islands? From volcanic landscapes and authentic villages to golden beaches and rich cultural encounters, our Grand Tour of the Canary Islands is an invitation to explore the islands in all their diversity. And it’s offered by the only French-speaking travel agency in the Canary Islands specialized in custom-made Canary Islands tours for both groups and individual travelers.

At Lanzatour Canarias, we are more than just an agency. We are a DMC in the Canary Islands, deeply rooted in each island, with local expertise and a true passion for meaningful, authentic travel. We are proud to offer the only Grand Tour of the Canaries designed entirely for English and French-speaking travelers.

Our Grand Tour of the Canaries invites you to discover four iconic islands: Lanzarote, Tenerife, La Gomera, and Gran Canaria. Each island reveals a different face of the archipelago — from lunar volcanoes to lush forests and vibrant towns. For travelers looking to go even further, we also offer optional extensions to Fuerteventura (with its endless beaches and dunes) and La Graciosa, the archipelago’s hidden jewel.

Lanzarote is unlike any other island — a place where volcanic landscapes meet avant-garde art. The island’s dramatic terrain, shaped by hundreds of volcanic eruptions, creates a surreal, lunar ambiance that captivates every traveler. In Timanfaya National Park, you’ll witness geysers and craters still radiating heat from below.

The Cueva de los Verdes and Jameos del Agua, sculpted naturally and enhanced by artist César Manrique, invite you underground to discover stunning lava tunnels. What makes Lanzarote unmissable is this harmonious blend of raw nature and artistic vision — an island where geology meets creativity. It’s the perfect place to start your journey through the archipelago’s wild and cultural essence.

Often called “a continent in miniature,” Gran Canaria offers an astonishing range of landscapes within a single island. From the dunes of Maspalomas in the south to lush pine forests and rugged cliffs in the north, every region reveals a new face.

You’ll discover charming mountain villages like Tejeda, dramatic valleys like Barranco de Guayadeque, and the lively culture of Las Palmas, the island’s capital. Gran Canaria provides a complete picture of Canarian diversity — both in terms of nature and lifestyle. It’s a must for travelers who want to experience the full geographical and cultural spectrum of the archipelago.

Tenerife is the largest and most diverse of the Canary Islands — and home to Mount Teide, Spain’s highest peak and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Its natural contrasts are astounding: you’ll go from black sand beaches and subtropical forests to high-altitude volcanic deserts in just a few hours. The north offers authentic towns like La Laguna, full of colonial charm and Canarian heritage, while the south boasts sunshine and beautiful coastlines.

Visiting Tenerife is essential to understand the archipelago’s geological power, cultural richness, and biodiversity.

No Grand Tour is complete without standing atop Teide and gazing across the islands from above the clouds.

La Gomera is often overlooked — and that’s what makes it so special. This small island is a green paradise of deep ravines, terraced hills, and ancient laurel forests in Garajonay National Park, another UNESCO gem. Its traditional villages preserve indigenous customs, like silbo gomero, a whistled language used to communicate across mountains.

La Gomera is a sanctuary of authenticity, tranquility, and natural harmony.

It’s crucial to visit La Gomera to experience the untouched soul of the Canary Islands — an island that takes you back in time and invites you to slow down and reconnect with nature.

Fuerteventura is the Canary Islands’ sun and sea capital. With more than 150 km of white sand beaches and turquoise waters, it’s a haven for relaxation, surfing, and scenic drives along coastal dunes.

Its arid, open landscapes offer a sense of freedom and immensity. While less volcanic than its neighbors, its charm lies in simplicity and space.

Adding Fuerteventura allows you to experience the desert-like beauty of the archipelago — and take a break between the intensity of the other islands.

The smallest inhabited island of the Canaries, La Graciosa is a secret oasis off the coast of Lanzarote.

With no paved roads, few cars, and a population under 800, it offers raw beauty and ultimate peace. Here, time seems to stop. You can bike along sandy paths, swim in crystalline coves, and enjoy seafood in a charming village by the sea. La Graciosa is the final touch of your Grand Tour — a peaceful retreat to reflect and unwind, far from the modern world.

This Grand Tour of the Canary Islands is ideal for:

  • Solo travelers or couples seeking a worry-free itinerary at their own pace

  • Families, with a program that balances culture, relaxation, and nature

  • Groups of friends, associations, or corporate clients
