This grand tour of Gran Canaria takes in the best of the island's highlands in just one day. You'll tick off the villages of Tejeda and Teror, enjoy a typical Canarian lunch and visit an aloe vera plantation. There'll be plenty of photo stops along the way, too. Pepe, one of our local guides, says, ‘We Canarians have been using aloe vera for healing burns since time immemorial. The plant's leaves produce a cool gel packed with vitamins, amino acids, minerals and enzymes. It's fascinating to find out about its benefits at the farm.'It's a blockbuster from the go. Our first stop is at the Degollada de la Yegua viewpoint, which by day boasts views of a Wild West-like canyon and by night of the stars. Then it's on to an eco-friendly aloe vera plantation. Here, you'll learn about the plant as well as its healing properties. Tejeda, considered one of Spain's prettiest villages, is next. All pretty whitewashed houses and palm trees nestled in the shadow of Roque Nublo and Roque Bentayga, it's Insta-perfect.We'll then head to Valleseco for a three-course lunch in a family-owned restaurant. Savour traditional Canarian dishes made from locally sourced ingredients, washed down with local wine, while admiring the views of a gorge below. With a full belly, the afternoon is dedicated to the picture-postcard town of Teror. It's famed for its pastel-coloured colonial homes with carved overhanging balconies. The town's centrepiece is the mountain-framed Basilica of Our Lady of the Pine.
