Free Tour of Telde (Gran Canaria) with official guide 🏛️

Imagining a tourist destination in Gran Canaria, not many visitors would think of Telde. It is the second city of the Island, the fourth of the archipelago and it appears to us more like an enclave of large productive and commercial estates.
The municipality is an obligatory point of passage for those traveling between the capital and the tourist areas in the south, as well as for those arriving by plane, since the Gran Canaria airport is located there. Even so, very few stop in this interesting city.
However, Telde preserves a historical complex of prime importance and great beauty, through which this route is developed, which aims to outline the profile of the Canarian identity. The Barranco Real de Telde , populated since pre-Hispanic times, preserves the traces left by generations of men and women for centuries. Due to its importance in the history of the island and due to the wealth of its archaeological, ethnographic and historical heritage in general, it is the ideal place to discover some of the features, institutions, traditions, as well as gastronomy, economic activities, landscape and territory that They define the Canarian culture.
The inhabitants of Tara and Cendro , two of the most famous aboriginal sites on the island, the Castilian noblemen who founded the San Juan neighborhood, the workers of the humble and picturesque San Francisco neighborhood, or the mysterious Inés Chemida, daughter of a noblewoman. Aboriginal and a Castilian captain, will be some of the characters that will ideally accompany us on the visit.
