Discover the history and religious tradition of Candelaria, one of the most emblematic places in Tenerife.

The tour will begin with the last section of the historic Camino Real, which will take us to the Basilica of Our Lady of Candelaria, where we will learn about the legend of the Virgin of Candelaria and her relationship with the ancient Guanches.

We will admire the sculptures of the nine Guanche menceyes who govern the square in front of the basilica.

We will visit the Casa de las Miquelas Pottery Centre, where we will talk about the local artisan tradition.
