What the trip to Teguise includes

The 4 to 5 hour excursion starts at the César Manrique Foundation, the house the artist built over a lava flow in Tahíche, with entry included and an official guide to talk through his work. Next comes the Teguise market, held in the streets of the old town, and a stop at Caleta de Famara, the shell-sand beach where the surfers train. It ends with free time in Teguise to wander on your own.

The market is Sundays only

The stalls go up every Sunday in the old town, so the trip is tied to that day. If you are on Lanzarote midweek and still want to see Teguise, the town is there year round and the historic centre takes half an hour on foot, but you will not find the market or this guided departure.

Pickups and how to plan it

  • Pickup at your hotel or nearby: Puerto del Carmen, Arrecife, Costa Teguise and Playa Blanca.
  • Official guide in English and Spanish throughout.
  • Free cancellation up to 24 hours before.
  • Wear comfortable shoes: between the market and the cobbled streets there is a fair bit of walking.
  • Bring some cash for the market, where many stalls sell local crafts.
