What to expect

Puerto de Mogan is said by many to be the most beautiful town in Gran Canaria, and once you've set eyes on its toytown houses, it's hard to argue. This tour brings you by boat, docking right in the heart of the harbour after a scenic approach, so you avoid long walks from out-of-town parking lots. Maria, one of our expert local guides, says, ‘Mogan market is a classic in Gran Canaria, known all over the island. And to arrive in the town by boat gives you that a spine-tingling sensation you get in anticipation of a special experience.'

Sailing from Puerto Rico harbour, you'll glide along the rocky, volcanic coastline of the south before arriving at Puerto de Mogan. Cupped into cliffs at the mouth of a steep valley, it's known as ‘Little Venice' for its canal, blue-and-yellow-trimmed white cottages, wrought iron balconies and flower-festooned lanes. Traits that have made it very popular.

Arriving by boat, you're in the middle of all the action straight away. Only we bring you to and from Puerto de Mogan by sea. Antonio, another of our local guides, say, ‘If you arrive by coach, not only is the journey less scenic but you have to walk a fair bit to get to the waterfront.' You'll have free time to poke around the stalls selling typical Canarian products or just relax at one of the many terraced cafés overlooking the yachts. Oh, and there's also an enticing sandy beach to stretch out on, too.

    Obwohl von 56 Personen 52 davon Deutsche waren wurde 80 % der Erklärungen auf Englisch geführt. Fast keine Informationen über Land und Leute. Insgesamt sehr enttäuschend, der Preis hierfür unangemessen.

    Reiseleitung naja...keine Nachfrage wie war es bei Rückreise...könnte mehr lächeln und wenigstens so machen das ihr der Beruf Spaß macht. Ausflug selbst sehr schön, doch Zeit einfach zu kurz. 13 Uhr zurück ist definitiv zu früh und eine Hetzerei wenn man den Ort und Markt erkunden möchte.

    Ich finde es eine sehr gut organisierte Tour. Es war jede Abfahrt und jedes Schiff und jeder Bus absolut eindeutig als der richtige organisiert. Immer waren die Tourguides als Ansprechpartner anwesend. Und hatten uns an Start und Ziel immer im Blick. Danke dafür. Das selbstständige Schlendern durch den Markt und den Ort war genauso wie ich mir das vorstelle.Jeder durfte tun und lassen was er oder sie wollten und genau so schnell oder langsam wie jeder einzelne so ist. Danke sehr Gerne wieder. ??

    Der Guide, Maria, hat die Busfahrt sehr gut organisiert, war freundlich und hat sehr interessante Infos während der Fahrt mitgeteilt. Sie hat sehr verständliches Deutsch und Englisch gesprochen. Die Bootsfahrt war gut, aber mit längeren Wartezeiten verbunden, was der Einzige Kritikpunkt ist. In Mogan gibt es dann freie Zeit zum Selbstgestalten

    Die reinste Abzocke, im Bus eine kurze Info, danach nichts mehr. Auf dem Boot ist man auf sich selbst gestellt und in Mogan auch. Die Bootstour kostet hin und zurück 15 € pro Person, der Bus von Maspalomas aus keine 10 € hin und zurück. Dafür bezahlt man 49 €, das ist eine Unverschämtheit, zumal, wie bereits erwähnt, weder eine wirkliche Reiseleitung vor Ort stattfindet noch großartige Informationen weitergegeben werden.
