Port times and itineraries can vary from one sailing to another, so the time available to explore Lanzarote will depend on your particular cruise date.

What can Marella passengers see during a port call in Lanzarote?

Lanzarote is a compact island, making it possible to discover some of its most spectacular landscapes during a single cruise stop.

For many Marella passengers, Timanfaya National Park is one of the highlights of their visit. Its volcanic landscapes, the famous Route of the Volcanoes and the geothermal demonstrations offer an unforgettable introduction to the island’s volcanic origins.

Depending on the time available during your port call, you can also discover places such as El Golfo and the Charco de los Clicos, the dramatic coastline of Los Hervideros, the salt flats of Salinas de Janubio or the vineyards of La Geria, where vines grow in the volcanic soil that makes Lanzarote so distinctive.

Passengers with a longer stay in port may also have time to explore the north of the island and visit some of César Manrique’s most emblematic creations, including Jameos del Agua and the Jardín de Cactus.

Shore excursions designed around your Marella cruise

The most important thing when choosing a shore excursion is not simply what you can visit, but how much time your particular ship has in Lanzarote.

Our excursions are organised around the scheduled arrival and departure of your Marella cruise, with enough time planned for your return to the Port of Arrecife.

With Lanzarote Experience Tours you travel in small groups, with a local guide and without mixing languages, so you can enjoy the island without the feeling of being part of a large cruise coach tour.

Your excursion is carefully planned around your ship’s schedule, with plenty of time allowed for your return to the Port of Arrecife before departure.

Prefer to discover Lanzarote in a smaller group?

Cruise line shore excursions are a convenient way to explore the island, but some travellers prefer a more personal experience in a smaller group.

At Lanzarote Experience Tours, our small-group shore excursions are organised in separate language groups, with a local guide, comfortable transport and carefully planned itineraries adapted to your ship’s time in port.

Attraction tickets included in the itinerary are already included in the tour price, and your day is carefully planned so that you can enjoy Lanzarote without unnecessary rushing and return to your cruise ship with plenty of time before departure.

Small group. Local guide. More time to enjoy Lanzarote.

Best shore excursions in Lanzarote for Marella cruise passengers

Your ideal shore excursion will depend on how long your Marella Discovery 2, Marella Explorer or Marella Voyager call gives you in Lanzarote. We select the excursions available for each cruise date according to the time in port, so you only see options that can be comfortably completed during your call.

Timanfaya & South Tour — Volcanoes and the South

imagen excursiones para cruceros excursion sur

Discover the spectacular volcanic landscapes of southern Lanzarote in a small group. Visit Timanfaya National Park and the Route of the Volcanoes, followed by El Golfo and the Charco de los Clicos, Los Hervideros, the Janubio Salt Flats and La Geria, with the opportunity to enjoy a local wine tasting.

At approximately 5 hours, this is an ideal choice for Marella passengers who want to experience Timanfaya and some of the highlights of southern Lanzarote while returning to the cruise port comfortably before departure.

Grand Tour — See more of Lanzarote

If your Marella port call allows enough time, our Grand Tour for cruise passengers combines the volcanic landscapes of Timanfaya National Park with some of the island’s most iconic attractions.

The cruise itinerary includes Timanfaya, the Cactus Garden and Jameos del Agua, with La Geria when the ship’s schedule allows sufficient time. The route is adapted to your time in port rather than trying to fit too many stops into your day.

Timanfaya Express — Timanfaya made simple

timanfaya express lanzarote experience tours

Planning to explore Lanzarote independently with a rental car? Timanfaya Express is designed for travellers who want to organise the rest of their day themselves but need a convenient way to experience Timanfaya National Park.

Drive independently to Yaiza, where you meet us for an approximately 3-hour excursion including the Fire Mountains, geothermal demonstrations at Islote de Hilario and the Route of the Volcanoes.

Important: Timanfaya Express does not depart from the cruise port. You need your own or a rental vehicle to reach the meeting point in Yaiza. For pick-up and return at the cruise port, choose Timanfaya & South Tour when available for your call.

Private Shore Excursion — Your island, your way

Prefer to explore Lanzarote privately? Travel with your own private vehicle and official local guide and choose the places that interest you most.

We create your itinerary around your interests and your Marella ship’s schedule, taking into account travelling distances and the time needed for a comfortable return to port. Whether your priority is Timanfaya, César Manrique’s creations, La Geria, the volcanic coast or a combination of different places, your day is planned specifically for you.

Entrance fees are not included in the private tour price, but we can arrange the necessary admissions for your itinerary, which you can pay to us in cash on the day of the excursion.
