The locations he took us gave us a great familiarity with the island and he really has a lot of knowledge. He even provided drone footage of us on our trip that showed us walking along the sand dunes and on top of a volcano. The provided tapas had an amazing water view and the food was great too!

The finale was a nice lunch (Spanish tapas) at a restaurant with a view, which was included in the price: we paid for our drinks and a couple of extra dishes we ordered. The prawns were absolutely fantastic, by the way!
