Tenerife

I returned from a dream vacation from Tenerife ... We drove a small group of quality with a professional and kind guide . In Tenerife we ​​were joined by a very charming local guide.

We flew through Madrid and continued for another two and a half hours to Tenerife. ( Puerto de la Cruz ).

The hotel had an excellent location close to the promenade and the food was excellent and varied. The rooms were not anything ... but we upgraded a fee with views of the Atlantic Ocean and the charming promenade.

Canary Islands is a group of beautiful islands in the Atlantic Ocean off the coast of Morocco (7 islands) belonging to Spain. Nature reserve islands, volcanoes are extinguished, volcanic rocks form a huge variety of formations. Picturesque fishing villages hanging on cliffs surging to the ocean. Beautiful beaches, excellent food and welcoming people. The weather is springy all year round, the north is cooler and sometimes rainy, but the islands are called the "eternal spring islands".

It was a trip of sea and land ... nature, history and a lot of pleasure.

Tenerife - the largest and most visited island and also the most diverse in terms of landscapes.

We arrived in the afternoon and after getting organized, we went for a walk on the charming promenade, full of life in cafes and restaurants, exempt shops from local VAT and music in Rehovot.

On the morning of the second day we drove to Guimar , the city on the east coast of Tenerife. We visited the famous pyramids of Tenerife. A series of pyramid-shaped pyramids built of five steps.

We explored the way of life of the ancient Guanacians of the island, who were destroyed by the Spanish in the Middle Ages.

On the way we stopped at the farm to create an alvora ... We heard explanations and saw a demonstration of the production of the fascinating Aloe Vera !!! Of course we got excited and bought .. :))

We continued to the city of Kandlaria . We visited the most important church in Tenerife facing the sea. A few dozen meters from the church stands a row of statues of ancient mythological leaders.

We spent the end of the day at the Loro Park. A spectacular tropical park, where special animals reside. We watched a show of dolphins and sea lions.

On the third day we rose up again and sailed to the island of La Gomera. A charming island with natural beauty of rare vegetation and wild landscapes. We walked through a thick forest of laurel trees. The capital of the island is San Sebastian . The last place Columbus had set foot before he arrived in America. Lunch was delicious and after that we enjoyed the island's whistling language. An ancient tradition preserved to this day, an ancient form of communication with whistles. (Silvo).

It was an amazing week, full of experiences and lots of pictures ... Every evening we spent, we drank a wonderful sangrita brikito ... We enjoyed a flamenco show, we ate a lot and also a banana of course ... the main branch of the islands.
