    From here, we travel north to the evergreen forest Los Tilos, where many indigenous plants of the island are found, including the Canarian holly tree, strawberry tree, heather and the Canarian bellflower. This wild territory is made up of beautiful and varied landscapes. Los Tilos is one of the richest areas in the Canary Islands in terms of fauna and flora.

    Following our visit, we continue to the attractive little town of Los Sauces where we have a short stop followed by a typical tapas (appetizer). Then we have a small walk along the banana haciendas, passing the natural swimming pools Charco Azul, and arrive at the rum distillery where we see how this beverage is processed. We shall also have the opportunity to taste this typical Canarian product, before we make the return journey to Santa Cruz de La Palma and our awaiting ship.

    TOUR NOTES: This tour involves a moderate amount of walking, some of which will be over gravelled terrain and paved inclines, there will also be steps to negotiate. The amount of walking during the periods of free time is at the discretion of the individual. Please note what flora or fauna may be seen is obviously subject to seasonal change.
