Amazing views - Worth the visit, amazing canyon and when we went (afternoon) it was really quiet. It’s only a short walk along but definitely worth it

An experience beyond the ordinary - An unforgettable day which gave good insight into a few corners of Gran Canaria's history, which also explains differently in the present.
Incredibly sweet, helpful and knowledgeable guides, on top of that with a sense of humor and playfulness.
Thanks, you two!
Sky Rebels has my highest recommendation.

The best! - We had a fantastic time. Perfect hosts and different places to visit away from all the usual tourist spots which we really enjoyed. Given lots of information but not overloaded - got the balance just right. Our 10 year old son gave it top marks and loved it. Wouldn't hesitate on booking again with them for any future trips.
