Day 2: At leisure in Lanzarote

Today, you'll have free time to enjoy the beach and explore the island at your own pace.

You could perhaps set out in search of César Manrique's architectural works. He contributed to safeguarding the island's natural heritage and culture by promoting sustainability and creating a perfect blend between art and nature. Visit some of his masterpieces: Jameos del Agua, his home in Tahíche (the César Manrique Foundation), Mirador del Río, and the Jardín de Cactus.

Day 3: A safari in Timanfaya National Park

Today you'll discover the island's beauty on a guided 4x4 safari tour. Go off the beaten path down routes known only to those who seek adventure, and head into the heart of Timanfaya National Park. Venture across a lunar-like landscape before enjoying the black sands of Las Malvas and the striking beauty of La Santa.

Stop for lunch in Teguise, home to authentic architecture and historic walls, with the option of visiting the Ermita de las Nieves - a small clifftop chapel. Soak in the island's landscape from this prime position, before continuing on to Haría, the valley of a thousand palm trees, and admiring views of the Chinijo Archipelago from the Risco de Famara route. You'll next reach Arrieta, a fishing village on the northwest coast, with further stops in Tabayesco and Los Valles before finally reaching your last destination for the day, La Geria.
