Private Shore Excursion in Lanzarote

Discover Lanzarote with a private air-conditioned minibus and an official guide exclusively for your group.

Rather than following a fixed itinerary, you can decide what you would most like to experience. We help you create a realistic route according to your interests and the time available during your EXPLORA II call.

Your personalised itinerary may include Timanfaya National Park, the volcanic landscapes of the south, El Golfo, the vineyards of La Geria, the creations of César Manrique, the volcanic north of Lanzarote or a combination of different areas.

Price: €700 per vehicle/group
Duration: 5 hours
Capacity: up to 8 passengers
Additional hour: €100

Included

Private air-conditioned minibus, official guide exclusively for your group, pick-up and return to the cruise port, personalised itinerary planning, tourist insurance and a small bottle of water per participant.

Not included

Admission fees to attractions and visitor centres, food, drinks and personal expenses.

Because your itinerary is personalised, admission fees are not included. You decide which attractions you would like to visit and pay only the corresponding entrance fees.

This also gives you the freedom to spend more time in the places that interest you most rather than following a predetermined programme.

Timanfaya & South Lanzarote – Small Group

If you prefer to explore Lanzarote in a small group, our Timanfaya & South Lanzarote Tour is an approximately 5-hour excursion through the volcanic landscapes of southern Lanzarote.

The itinerary includes Timanfaya National Park, El Golfo, Los Hervideros, the Janubio Salt Pans and La Geria.

The excursion is operated in our own minibus with a maximum of 14 participants.

The necessary admission fees for the itinerary, tourist insurance and a small bottle of water per participant are included.

Grand Tour Lanzarote

When the duration of your EXPLORA II call allows, the Grand Tour Lanzarote offers a more extensive discovery of the island, combining the volcanic landscapes of the south with some of Lanzarote's best-known attractions in the north.

The itinerary includes Timanfaya National Park, El Golfo and Charco de los Clicos, La Geria, Jameos del Agua and Jardín de Cactus.

The Grand Tour is also operated in a small group of up to 14 participants, with the necessary admission fees included.

Availability depends on the duration of your particular port call.

Languages

Our regular small-group excursions are organised separately in English, German or Spanish.

We do not mix languages in the same small-group vehicle.

Private excursions may also be arranged with guides in other languages, such as French or Italian, subject to guide availability.

Meeting Point at Arrecife Cruise Port

Cruise ships may dock in different areas of the Port of Arrecife. Depending on the berth assigned to EXPLORA II, your meeting point may be located at Las Marinas or Los Mármoles.

The exact meeting point and departure information will be provided with your booking confirmation.

Are the Excursions Adapted to the EXPLORA II Schedule?

Yes. We organise our shore excursions taking into account the ship's scheduled arrival and departure times.

The excursions available may therefore vary depending on the duration of each call.

For guests who value greater flexibility, a private shore excursion allows the itinerary and pace of the day to be adapted to both your interests and your available time ashore.

Why Choose a Private Tour During Your EXPLORA II Call?

A private excursion is particularly suitable if you would like to:

• travel only with your family or companions;
• choose the places that interest you most;
• decide how much time to spend at each stop;
• combine volcanic landscapes, wine country and César Manrique's creations;
• enjoy Lanzarote with your own vehicle and official guide;
• adapt the itinerary to the time available during your port call.

Rather than trying to see everything, the aim is to make the most of your time in Lanzarote in the way that suits you best.

Discover Lanzarote During Your Explora Journeys Cruise

From the extraordinary volcanic landscapes of Timanfaya and the vineyards of La Geria to the unique relationship between art and nature created by César Manrique, Lanzarote offers a very different experience from many other Atlantic islands.

Make the most of your EXPLORA II call in Lanzarote with a local team — on a small-group excursion or a private tour tailored to your interests and your time ashore.
