Ines and Juan are two Gran Canaria locals, very passionate and knowledgeable about their island. The tour ticked all the boxes and exceeded my expectations! We hiked, we admired landscapes, we listened to music, had a gourmet picnic lunch, and learned loads about Gran Canaria - all in the company of fun but very professional and experienced guides who did their best to make our tiny group feel like family. If, like me, you only have a short time to see Gran Canaria, this chill, fun, and informative tour is a great option! And if you have more time, it might be a good way to start exploring the island. Either way, I recommend this tour and Sky Rebels.

This was a special tour, with great energy, and a fun story was told that included you. The small group concept is great, and I’m really glad there were no commercial stops at all! If you are an avid naturalist then perhaps the level of detail could have been greater. For me this was more a positive than a negative.

If you need something local to do before a flight home, check out this ancient site. It's free for a start, and fairly close to the airport. The site itself is composed of 4 separate structures - the first is the Cueva de Cuatro Puertas (cave of the 4 doors) and is a small cave carved out of the hillside with views over to Las Palmas. Follow the steps up the hillside and turn right at the first information sign. Then walk up to the top of the hill (there's no fixed path so watch your step) to see the circular carved area that was used for libations (it's known as Almogarén). Come back down to the first sign and turn right, going round the other side of the hill to the Cueva de los Papeles (cave of the papers). There's a railing to stop you falling over the edge and this has been improved over the last year with a painted concrete foundation so it feels a lot safer. In order to access the last set of dwellings, the Cueva de los Pilares (cave of the pillars) you'll have to climb over a few rough-hewn steps and then walk along a more treacherous path but the views and the location are worth it. There are many theories about how old the site is, but most agree that it dates back to the Guanches, the first humans to settle the islands after migrating from the Berber tribe in north west Africa, although it's been used as a dwelling and animal storage into thr 20th Century. If you find it a bit windy going up the hill, it's usually calm on the other side (where the last 2 sets of caves are) and it's not a site to visit easily if you're unsteady on your feet. Be aware that someone lives on the house at the top of the hill, just before you get to the caves, so be courteous and don't block his exit or trespass in his clearly-marked garden - follow directions to the caves and then park just before the post box that signifies the start of his driveway. The path then continues up to the caves and past his house, which is also charming to look at as you go past. In all, an interesting excursion if you like aboriginal history, don't mind a scramble across rocks, and have time to spare. Just be sure to take the first turning right as you leave or else you'll get stuck in a one way section and have to turn back.

What a fantastic tour by two local Canarians. Inez and Juan and not forgetting Lupita were entertaining , informative and great fun. They collected us and returned us to our cruise ship promptly. In between from North to South we saw amazing scenery, clouds, plants, biodiversity. The lunch was excellent and tailored to our requirements. We totally recommend this tour.

Great tour with two local, very experienced, friendly and funny guides. You will learn about some of Gran Canarias history, vegetation and animals with the waterfalls as highlights.

Inés and Juanjo are a lovely couple passionate about their country. The way they (including Lupita) bring you along the tour is exceptional. They share a lot of Canarian history with us and we learn way more than expected on our tour to Roque Nublo and the other places on the tour. I would definitely book them next time we visit Gran Canaria and recommend their well prepared tours to family and friends. Thanks Inés for the exceptional lunch provided on the tour with the wine and the chosen place to eat. This tour is worth every cent.

The guides Juan and Inez know a lot about the neighbourghood and share the history of the island with us. They also know a lot about the plants. I would recommended these tour, it is beautiful and very nice

We were lucky and we were the only 2 people on the tour therefore it made the experience even better. The whole day was planned out really well and Ines and Juanjo were very knowledgeable and gave us lots of local information. Despite a slight traffic jam at Roque Nublo (which Ines and Juanjo sorted out!) it was smooth running. The lunch that was provided was homemade and tasty with local produce. Lupita was very comfortable and kept us safe. We would highly recommend going on tours with Sky Rebels!

This tour was THE highlight of my 5 day visit to Gran Canaria! Ines and Juanjo have created something quite magical with their tour; a great combination of natural and cultural history with a mischievous sense of quirky silliness that was really enjoyed. The hike itself was beautiful and the plants; flowers and waterfalls breath-taking. I felt super relaxed after this experience even though we had trekked 8km. If I return to Gran Carnaria, I will definitely be booking another of their tours! Can't recommend this experience enough! Gracias!

We had a fabulous - magical in fact ;-) -day out with Ines and Juan (and Lupita!) visiting Roque Nublo and many other local sites around the island (highest point, local village, etc). The team are friendly and professional, and so knowledgable about the island. I was very glad that Juan was driving those skinny mountain roads! Incredible views and inspiring beauty. We stopped in the forest for a lunch prepared by Ines - what a feast of local dishes! I highly recommend this tour guide duo, it really is the best way to see the island. Thank you both for a wonderful experience.

Our guides Inez and Wan were so fun and informative. We were engaged the entire hike, their love of the island is evident in all they do! Thanks for a great trip!!! Drew and Sheri

I recommend it to everyone! We were at the time of the kalima winds. But would love to be there again during clear visibility. Great views! Lupita, Juanjo and Inés thank you very much for the time together!

I wholeheartedly echo the sentiments expressed in the numerous 5-star reviews for Sky Rebels' tours led by Juanjo and Inés (and Lupita). While these day trips may come at a slightly higher cost compared to others on Gran Canaria, the immersive and captivating experiences they offer are worth every cent. As a solo traveler, I joined both the Roque Nublo and Unesco Sacred Mountains tours, and my satisfaction was beyond measure. The small and intimate group setting, coupled with Inés' delectable homemade tapas-style lunch, added an extra layer of delight to the journey. From breathtaking vistas to the couple's profound knowledge of the island and its indigenous people, the Canarios, which they generously shared throughout the tours, every element was meticulously curated. The pacing was also 'Just Right,' leaving me with a sole 'complaint'—the missed opportunity to partake in more tours. Without a doubt, I will be returning for additional adventures with Sky Rebels in the future.

Juanjo and Ines are a great couple: - intelligent - carying - having a profound knowledge of her country - are phantastic organizer - show you great things, „hidden gems“, away from the tourist mass - honest - full of fantasy - good driver - provide a lovely home made lunch for you I felt in love with the tour and can not wate to make the next one with the sky rebels ( maybe a bit a missleeding title of the“ 2 man company“…)

I experienced great Customer Care from Aldemar who works on the Atlantis Reservations team. Very Polite, Professional and quick in handling my issue. Thank you Aldemar. It's great service like this that has made Atlantis our #1 choice for a hotel in Reno. We have been staying at Atlantis for 20+ years and have never had a bad experience.
