“Well paced day out. Loved the caves and Cesar Manrique cactus garden and house. Pablo, aka Paul, was a fabulous guide. Very knowledgeable and friendly. I think it should be made clearer to people who book that lunch is 15 euro, and pretty much non- negotiable, unless you want to take your own food, or go without, as it's in the middle of a small village with no other options. Having said that, it was a buffet, so lots of choice, tasty food and included wine and water. We weren't lucky with the weather, but it didn't spoil the day.”
