★★★★★★★★★★4.7 · 131 reviews · 1.5 hours · from $34Our pick

At Bodega San Juan, a fifth-generation family winery, an English-speaking guide leads you through organic vines, a small wine museum, an old cellar, and modern production rooms. The 90-minute visit ends with two wines and local cheese, toast, and olives. Guide Maria has been praised for her warm, lively explanations, though the guide may vary.

“Loved the tour. The guide was fab and explained the entire history of the estate and wine making process so nicely! The estate is a beauty on its own. The wine and cheese tasting was fantastic because you got to have it in a beautiful garden on the estate while butterflies surrounded you. 10/10 experience and 11/10 guide”

2.Banana Museum, Rum Distillery & Winery with Tasting: Premium tour

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 62 reviews · 5 to 6 hours (approx.) · from $83

Spend five to six hours exploring Gran Canaria’s banana-growing, rum-making and wine-and-coffee traditions. A guide leads the plantation and cellar visits, tastings and a mojo sauce workshop, with free time for lunch in Agaete. Tom is one guide named by a past participant, but guide assignments can vary.

“This is an excellent excursion in every way. Very informative guide and a good chance to see part of the Island as well as the threes stops for the Banana Plantation, Run tasting and lastly the Coffee Growing. Everything was fine but…. If you are getting on and have difficulty walking, the Coffee place especially was a bit hard work getting up the path to. Otherwise a very good excursion.”
