(This is part of a trip report flying British Airways first class, using a “Travel Together” ticket to Canary Islands, via London).

We flew from Tenerife to Gran Canaria and had an amazing timeshare in Mogan, with absolutely stunning views, AND a garden!

Our first day we rode the bus to Maspalomas sand dunes, and they were great! (But not as beautiful as the white sands of Lencois Maranhenses in Brazil). 

We rented a car the next two days and drove first to Picos de las Nieves, which we couldn’t see because of the weather. Then it was to Barranco de Guayadeque – a canyon area, with cave restaurants and some the BEST food of the trip!

We had read about GC 200 coastal road, which all the locals said wasn’t worth it, but I’m SO glad we made the (very crooked) drive – there were spectacular views! So in one day we went all the way around the island! WHEW!

Our next day was less driving – we went to a quaint little town in the north and to Teror Crater.

The last days were just walks on the beach and relaxing with our view!.

Next up, London…
