Free Tour of Telde (Gran Canaria) with Official Guide
Overview of the tour in Gran Canaria
Imagining a tourist destination in Gran Canaria, not many visitors would think of Telde. It is the second city on the island, the fourth in the archipelago.
However, Telde preserves a historical ensemble of prime importance and great beauty, through which this route is developed that aims to outline the profile of the Canarian identity. The Barranco Real de Telde, inhabited since pre-Hispanic times, preserves the traces left over the centuries by generations of men and women. Due to its importance in the history of the island and the richness of its archaeological, ethnographic and historical heritage in general, it is the ideal place to discover some features, institutions, traditions, as well as gastronomy, economic activities, landscape, and territory that define the Canarian culture.
The inhabitants of Tara and Cendro, two of the most famous aboriginal sites on the island, the Castilian noblemen who founded the neighborhood of San Juan, the workers of the humble and picturesque neighborhood of San Francisco, or the mysterious Inés Chemida, daughter of a noblewoman Aboriginal and a Castilian captain, will be some of the characters that will ideally accompany us on the visit.
This activity includes:
- Plaza de San Juan
- Recorrido por el centro histórico de la localidad
- Guía oficial de turismo
