About this private VIP Tour to La Gomera
Discover the luxury of being able to visit an island as wonderful as La Gomera on board one of Tamarán’s minivans, spacious vehicles that are specially prepared so that you remember your private VIP Tour to La Gomera for a long time afterwards. Let the team tell you everything about each place you visit and immerse yourself in an island that was Columbus’s final departure point on his journey to the New World.
Silbo Gomero, Cultural Heritage of Humanity
This La Gomera tour from Tenerife takes you from your accommodation—or nearby point—to the places that make the island truly special. La Gomera has its own language, silbo gomero, a whistled language that has been declared part of the Cultural Heritage of Humanity. If you want to find out all about it, don’t miss the explanations by the Tamarán team, which will make your VIP Tour to La Gomera an experience that makes you truly connect with an island packed with history.
When you reach San Sebastián de La Gomera, just as Columbus did over 500 years ago, you’ll set off on your tour. La Gomera has many magical places that you’ll visit, such as a traditional pottery centre, the Vallehermoso Viewpoint, Garajonay National Park with its laurel forests and the Abrante Viewpoint. Here you’ll enjoy a special meal that will charge up your batteries as you sample the delights of Canary Islands cuisine.
When your excursion in comfort finishes, you’ll be returned to the start with a smile on your face, inspired by the island’s history, its fascinating cultural and natural features and with countless photos of one of the most charismatic islands in the Atlantic.

What you'll see on this private excursion to La Gomera
Hermigua
This small village specialises in growing Canary Islands bananas and is also famous for its palm tree groves, the source of Canary Islands guarapo juice. Once you’ve been here, you’ll understand why the quality of life in La Gomera is so high.
Laguna Grande
Plant-life is curiously absent from this plain that spreads out in the centre of Garajonay National Park in environmental conditions unlike any others on the island. This is the perfect place to start when you set off to explore the park.
Canary Islands cuisine
Another attraction of this Jeep Safari: La Gomera has some wonderful food. You’ll stop in one of La Gomera’s restaurants and have the chance to sample some of the island’s most typical dishes. Are you sure you know real Canary Islands food?
Garajonay National Park
The jewel in the crown of the island’s natural attractions, this park has paths and routes among laurel forests from the Tertiary period. Wherever you look as you travel by Jeep, you’re certain to be amazed. It’ll be a long time before you forget this green paradise.
San Sebastián de La Gomera
Admire the balconies and splendid colours on the façades of buildings in the island’s capital. This will be your departure point once you’ve arrived on the island and you’ll also be free to explore it independently for a while before boarding the return ferry.
Agulo
One of the most enchanting areas not just of La Gomera, but the whole Canary Islands archipelago. Travel its narrow cobbled streets by Jeep and get ready to see one of the most impressive panoramic views in the Atlantic.
