Firstly: let us start by telling you that we are a team of three: Inés, Juanjo and our beloved van "Lupita". We are passionate about going out to visit the island and explore all its nooks. We are in love with its people, its landscapes and traditions. So, we are excited to show, to anyone who wants it, all the wonders that are hidden in our "small continent": the island of Gran Canaria. That's our reason to invite you to discover the island with us. 

Thus, we have designed a route through our own experience. It is a privilege to have been born here and -after 48 years enjoying the island for ourselves- we know it is time to enjoy it with you. Without commercial stops.
