Discover with us the work of a genius! In the centre of the island Cesar turns a simple quarry into a homage to agricultural work: the Farmers’ Monument after this visit, the way leads through the old capital Teguise to the Valleys. Our next stop surprises us with beautiful views over the Valley of Thousand Palms, the Corona Volcano and the coast with its villages. We cross the village of Haría and visit El Mirador del Rio (the Viewpoint of the River) transformed by the Lanzarotenian artist and from where we enjoy the view of Chinijo Archipelago. We descend via the Corona Volcano and visit one of the most impressive caves on the island: Jameos del Agua. Volcanic nature, always present in the work of Manrique, is discovered with the visit to the beautiful Jardín de Cactus (Cactus Garden), the last work of this genius to be opened. We save for last the visit to The Cesar Manrique Foundation, his home and inspiration. The house is perfectly integrated into the surrounding lava. Return to the hotel. Lunch en route*.

Ja , das war doch mal ein schöner Ausflug. Die Tour über Cesar Manrique in den Norden Lanzarotes hat uns sehr überrascht. Die Vulkanhöhlen , das Haus von Omar Sharif und das Leben des canarischen Künstlers Cesar Manrique kennenzulernen waren die Höhepunkte des Ausfluges. Sogar meine Frau hat der Ausflug gefallen. Vielen Dank an Erich , unseren Reiseleiter. Es war ein sehr schöner Tag. Weiter so.

Excursión inolvidable la que hemos hecho hoy César Manrique el día 25.10.2017 donde nos han tratado de la mejor manera e informándonos detalladamente de cada lugar visitado.

visite d'une journée pleine d'intérêt et de diversité. Toutes les entrées sont comprises. On peut choisir entre cuevas del verde et jameos del agua, ce qui est très appréciable. Le restaurant - non compris- est infect. Le prix est dérisoire 8 euros par personne mais nous avons été malades tous les deux ce qui malheureusement a gâché la fin de nos vacances

Very well organised, got to see so much in a day, and covered all the main attractions. There is enough time to enjoy each attraction. Lunch in a very picturesque location, very good food.

Excellent tour exploring Caesar Manrique's pioneering ecological contribution to the protection of Lanzarote's unique landscape and beauty. I absolutely loved the Jardin des Cactus. Your guide was knowledgeable and perceptive, she made the your so much fun.

The tour guide was very informative and efficient. The lunch stop was not good, for those not eating the area was not comfortable or interesting. We were not informed about the artisan market at the foundation and did not include time to see it which was disappointing.
