We were impressed by the owners' dedication to taking care of their farm in the most sustainable way possible. The tour doesn't take long, but the information is really interesting, not to mention that Steve is funny and a great guide and host. Do book this tour if you want to find out the secrets of Gran Canarian bananas and their keepers.

We had a nice time here. Our guide told and Shows us a lot about the different banana variants, the history of the banana and about the growing progress during our ~25min tour. Afterwards we got to taste some bananas, banana-wine and banana-jam. We were told we could stay and walk around the plantation as long as we pleased afterwards.
