La Gomera is known as the untouched Canary Island, popular with walkers, nature enthusiasts and those who are seeking the quieter side of the Canaries.

Taking a little longer to arrive, and with a less direct route, you will soon discover it was well worth it. Situated off the coast of Tenerife by some 30kms, this is a paradise for those who like dramatic scenery, awe inspiring vistas, beautiful green valleys and ancient tropical rain forests.

This self-guided, multi centre holiday offers much in the way of varied routes; mountainous paths, walks through forests, treks through the National Park and along coastal paths. Past ancient villages with their colourful houses and pretty churches, to the towns of Hermigua and Valle Gran Rey, brimming with Canarian history, culture and cuisine.

You spend your first night in the capital town of San Sebastian, following your journey from Tenerife. The next three nights are at the Hotel Villa Hermigua, and then the last four at Hotel Jardin Concha in the town of Valle Gran Rey, perfect bases from which you take in a variety of walks and treks, to see the best this island has to offer.
