Nice and cozy - A very nice experience, the landscape is unreal. Pleasant and polite hosts. First we saw the garden, the host explained everything beautifully. We fed camels, donkeys and goats. We tried home-made jams and traditional lunch, freshly squeezed juice, sangria and rum with honey. I do recommend.

Camels who would have thought? - This out of the way excursion is worth it. The camel riding trip took us through the heart of a massive cannon with views Pico de Nieves(the highest peak on the island). The ride was expertly guided by a local who was able to point out caves which may have been inhabited by Neolithic people. Back at the camel ranch we were provided with a small tapas sampler and fresh made smoothies from the garden. The ranch also contained a small camel petting exhibit where for a small fee you could feed baby camels. The excursion operator was also able to secure us a taxi back to our resort with advanced notice.

Nothing to write home about - It was nice to do once. But it was presented better than it actually was.
