About this experience

Discover Lanzarote in a full-day private tour dedicated to the genius of César Manrique, the artist who fused nature, art, and architecture into the island’s identity. With hotel pickup, drop-off, and an English-speaking driver, enjoy a customizable itinerary and the option to extend your journey. Start at the César Manrique Foundation, his volcanic-lava home turned museum and studio. Continue to the Monumento al Campesino, a tribute to farmers and rural heritage. Explore the Jardín de Cactus, a former quarry transformed into a spectacular garden of over 4,500 cacti species. Head to Jameos del Agua, a volcanic grotto redesigned into a cultural space with an underground lake, rare albino crabs, and a stunning auditorium. Conclude at the Mirador del Río, a cliffside viewpoint overlooking La Graciosa and the Chinijo Archipelago, perfectly integrated into the volcanic rock. A journey of art, culture, and nature, all in one.
