We'll take you to the island to the north to discover its moon-like landscapes, palm-clad valleys, volcanic vineyards and whitewashed villages. Teresa, one of our expert local guides, says, ‘Lanzarote's wines are the fruit of our ingenuity in harnessing the destruction wrought by Mother Nature into an art–a common thread that weaves together islander and landscape.
After an early pick-up, go to the port for the ferry to Playa Blanca. The action starts straight away at Timanfaya National Park, a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve that's home to more than 100 volcanoes.
In La Geria. Enjoy a tasting of its wines, which are made from grapes grown in moist circular cavities, known as ‘socos'. A drive through the Valley of the Thous and Palm Trees will whet your appetite. A buffet lunch is served in a family-owned restaurant, which uses locally sourced ingredients. With this stop, you contribute to the local community. Rounding off the day is a visit to the Jameos del Agua.
