Description
The Canary Islands’ ancient nickname, ‘The Fortunate Isles’, is something of an understatement. Spain’s southermost region is blessed with a long list of irresistible attributes, from gorgeous beaches to towering volcanic peaks, not to mention a near-perfect subtropical climate all year round. Embark on this eight-day island-hopping adventure from Gran Canaria, to Los Cristianos, La Palma, La Gomera, Tenerife, Lanzarote, and Fuerteventura. Peregrine takes you beyond the glamour resorts and into the heart of these isles, where goat farmers tend the land, the wine and cheese are made by hand, and the traditions of yesteryear resonate through the hills.
