Description

Discover a different side of Tenerife on this half-day excursion that combines history, Canarian culture, sustainable agriculture, and local flavors. The first stop will be Guía de Isora, one of the most characterful towns in southwest Tenerife. Accompanied by an official tour guide, you'll walk through its historic center, declared a Place of Cultural Interest, among streets, squares, and examples of traditional Canary architecture. During the stroll, you'll learn about the history and heritage of the municipality and discover some of the places that preserve the essence of traditional island life. Afterwards, the experience continues at an ecological farm dedicated to sustainable agriculture. Here you'll learn firsthand how one of the most iconic products of the Canary Islands is grown: the banana. During the visit, you will tour the farm and discover the process of growing bananas and other tropical fruits, learning how agriculture can be carried out in a more environmentally friendly way. You'll also learn about its circular economy model, based on making use of the farm's own resources, reducing waste, and returning organic matter to the production cycle. More than a visit to a banana plantation, this experience lets you learn firsthand about a form of agriculture linked to the land, discover where some of the products that are part of Canarian cuisine come from, and understand the importance of the agricultural sector in Tenerife. To finish, you'll enjoy a food tasting of local and fresh products from the farm, adding flavor to everything you've learned during the visit. History, nature, agriculture, and gastronomy come together in an ideal excursion for those who want to discover Tenerife beyond its beaches and get to know its traditions, its flavors, and a more sustainable way of understanding the island.
