The History of Las Palmas (Small Groups of 9 People Max)

TOUR FOCUSED ON HISTORY

IMPORTANT TIP: TAKE THE TOUR AT THE BEGINNING OF YOUR STAY ON THE ISLAND.

As a hiker and big lover of my island, once finished the tour, I am open to answering any questions you may have related to places to visit, eat, snorkel, or whatever. I will recommend many hidden spots and non-touristic sites all around Gran Canaria.

I will tell you some of the many details I know related to our history incluiding some characters related to the city such as Christopher Colombus, Francis Drake, Agatha Christie or Francisco Franco. Of course some explanations about certain elements really important from our local architecture like the Canarian balcony, the traditional patios or some really ancient Gothic Porticos. For those that really like the dark side of history, don't worry, I'm a big fan so I will talk about some horrible events that took part in my city.

On the tour, we cover some of the main spots, such as:

• Plaza de Santa Ana
• Las Palmas Cathedral 
• Hermitage of San Antonio Abad 
• Calle de los Balcones
• Plaza de San Agustín
• A traditional Patio
• Parish of Santo Domingo
• Plaza del Espiritu Santo

Limited to a maximum of 9 people, we will visit the most symbolic corners of the historic centre. The main reason for reducing the group size is to provide a friendly and personalized treatment, looking forward to solve any doubts you may have and sharing with you the interesting history of Gran Canaria, including the Pre-Hispanic era.
