Join me on a cultural walk through the farming village of Icod el Alto in Tenerife, a place rich in history and agricultural traditions. Starting from the heart of the village, we’ll trace the historic Royal Road—a centuries-old path that connects the island—while exploring the customs that have shaped life in the Canary Islands. Along the way, you’ll learn about Tenerife’s unique history, its economic roots, and the cultural and natural heritage that makes the Canary Islands so distinct.
Icod el Alto holds the honor of being the birthplace of the famous Canary potato, with 29 varieties that are protected and nurtured by local families since the 17th century. On this tour, you’ll discover sustainable and ecological farming methods that keep these unique potato varieties distinct from commercial seed banks, preserving a local treasure for future generations.
This tour is perfect for those looking to inmerse into Tenerife’s traditions and experience the island’s rural life up close. Whether you’re traveling with family, friends, or as a couple, this small-group experience (limited to 4-6 people) offers a personal and in-depth look into Tenerife’s agricultural history and culture. Come see the Canary Islands through a local’s eyes and connect with the heart of the island’s heritage.
Sometimes you will meet me, Adal, and sometimes you will meet my partner, Sara. Both of us are Official Guides of the Canary Islands
Discover Puerto de la Cruz, the most important city and tourist centre in the north of Tenerife. Founded in the 16th century, it was one of the most important ports on the island during the colonial period, along with Garachico and Santa Cruz de Tenerife. In addition, it was the first tourist destination in the world, where illustrious people such as Kaiser Wilhelm II, the Dukes of Kent and even relatives of Emperor Franz Joseph of Austria and the younger brothers of the Romanov family came. This allows us to experience first-hand the transformation of one of the most emblematic places on the island.
The visit begins next to the sculpture of Ángel Martín Acosta, and then we go around the new dock and Plaza Europa, where we will talk about the Canary Islands' footprint in America. We visit the Mirador de San Telmo, where we tell the story of César Manrique and his imprint with the famous Lago Martiánez. We will walk around the historic centre and end in the Barrio de la Ranilla, the most colourful and lively part of the city.
I invite you to discover this city with the help of Canarias te Guía, a team of official guides, experts in our local towns and cities. We look forward to seeing you there!
