What to expect

Isla de Lobos, or island of the wolves, is as remote and wild as they come – and your destination for the day on this rejuvenating boat trip. You'll disembark at Lobos Island where the time's yours to swim and go in search of peace and tranquillity. During the journey to and from Lanzarote, keep an eye on the dolphins, flying fish and whales that may join us for the ride.

You'll set sail from Puerto del Carmen, with Lobos Island in your sights. After about an hour and a half at sea, seeking out signs of activity for dolphins and whales, you'll land on the island's idyllic shores. White sand dunes shimmer beneath the clear seas, inviting you to swim and explore this protected natural area.

Head off on one of the paths, or keep to the shores doing as much, or as little, as you like. Then, after about two hours, you'll board the jet boat once more to skirt your way back to Lanzarote – keeping watch for the flying fish that often put on a show.

    The trip was fab but there were no toilets available on the island as they were all blocked up. I know this is no fault of TUI but it does need mentioning as we had 2 and a half hours on the island.

    We were fortunate enough to see a large family of dolphins on our way to the island. It was a privilege to see them in their natural environment and they seemed to put on a real display. Island itself was lovely and really interesting. Well looked after by the crew on a bit of a choppy return trip back to Lanzarote. Thank you.

    Overall a great day and felt we like had just the right amount of time on the island. Only downside was the toilets on the island had been blocked so only 1 woman’s toilet was available which wasn’t great at all. Think overall the trip was great and loved seeing the dolphins

    The only thing is it wasn't long enough on the island to see most of what was offered. You had to make a choice by the time we looked at the village, we didn't have time for the walk to the volcano and a dip in the sea otherwise it was fabulous. the guys on the boat were amazing and made it fun.

    Lobos Island is interesting. We have liked maybe an extra 30 minutes on Lobos Island to explore it more thoroughly - it was a rush to walk to the Lighthouse at the far end of the island and back which didn't leave time to explore the village.

    This was a enjoyable day out well worth the money. The island is beautiful. The staff were amazing, very knowledgeable and attentive. The highlight of the day was we were fortunate to see the dolphins. A very good experience. I would definitely recommend it.

Nat Geo Day Tour: La Geria, viñedos que brotaron del fuego

Cuando en 1736 cesaron los seis largos años de erupciones del Timanfaya, los agricultores de La Geria creyeron que sus fértiles tierras se habían perdido para siempre bajo una gruesa capa de ceniza. Pero las familias locales necesitaban hacer que la tierra volviera a ser productiva y, a base de trabajo duro y determinación, consiguieron crear los viñedos de La Geria. Empezarás con un paseo panorámico, recorriendo senderos a través de viñedos privados pertenecientes a la bodega familiar de Nacho Romero, abiertos en exclusiva para los visitantes de National Geographic. Mientras te empapas del carácter excepcional de estos paisajes en los que los viñedos están rodeados de volcanes, el propietario te explicará cómo la capa de ceniza volcánica, conocida localmente como «picón», ha moldeado sus métodos de cultivo, únicos en el mundo. Si tienes la suerte de encontrarlas maduras, incluso podrás recoger uvas directamente de la vid mientras Nacho o su mujer, Luisa, ambos enólogos, te habla de las peculiares características del vino volcánico. Ya de vuelta tras el paseo, podrás probar uno de los vinos artesanales que Nacho y Luisa elaboran en su bodega casera. A continuación, te dirigirás a la bodega La Geria, otro elemento importante del movimiento para la elaboración de vinos ecológicos. El enólogo en persona te mostrará la bodega. Descubrirás los secretos de los «zocos» que protegen las viñas del viento y las distintas variedades de uva que prosperan en el terruño volcánico de Lanzarote. Para terminar, catarás uno de los vinos populares de la finca, acompañado con queso local y galletas saladas.

Nat Geo Day Tour: La belleza volcánica de Lanzarote, un recorrido fotográfico

En esta excursión, te convertirás en un narrador visual bajo la dirección de un guía fotógrafo formado por National Geographic. Conseguirás una información valiosísima sobre cómo conseguir la instantánea perfecta, ya sea en términos de composición, de iluminación o de narrativa. Tras presentar la parte competitiva del día, el guía te acompañará al Parque Nacional de Timanfaya. Durante la visita, conseguirás buenas vistas de los paisajes lunares de Timanfaya, que se formaron hace cientos de años, cuando una serie de erupciones volcánicas cubrieron de lava una cuarta parte de la isla. Hay campos de lava escarpados, conos volcánicos inquietantes y franjas de ceniza gris carbón. También harás una parada en el mirador del Islote de Hilario para apreciar la fuerza de la energía geotérmica y disfrutar de las vistas. Si te desplazas hasta el pueblo pesquero de El Golfo, encontrarás un revoltijo de edificios tradicionales y llamativas embarcaciones que contrastan con la playa de arena negra y el insólito lago verde. Es un lugar perfecto para inmortalizar contrastes de color. Después, llegará la hora de descubrir las antiguas salinas de Janubio, otro paisaje saturado de dramatismo y descarnado atractivo. Esta zona está declarada Reserva de la Biosfera por la Unesco y es un importante santuario de aves, así que prepara la cámara. Con un experto en fotografía a tu lado, adquirirás nuevas habilidades y nueva inspiración, además de una colección de imágenes fascinantes. Al final del día, en la terraza de las salinas de Janubio, podrás relajarte con una copa de vino o una cerveza y algo de picar, mientras el guía revisa las fotos del día y elige la mejor.
