Volcano, Vine & Sea: A Private Lanzarote Day Trip

Your driver and guide meet you in Playa Blanca in a private Mercedes V-Class, at the port or at your hotel. Your confirmed pickup time keeps the volcano walk, bodega visit, lunch, and sea pools in their best rhythm. The vehicle and guide remain private to your group throughout.

A short drive north, then a gentle walk of close to five kilometres into the crater of an extinct volcano, black rock on every side and almost no one else around.

Into La Geria, the strangest vineyard you will ever see, where each vine grows in a hollow of black ash behind its own low wall of stone. At a working bodega you taste the Malvasía where it is made, with something small to eat.

On to Yaiza, one of the island's prettiest villages, and a slow lunch in a restored nineteenth-century manor house, traditional and modern Canarian cooking. No clock, and no next thing to rush to.

Down to the coast, clear pools cut into the volcanic rock above the Atlantic, warm and far from the resorts. When the tide does not allow it, we turn instead to another quiet stretch of coastline. Then the gentle drive back to Playa Blanca.
