A quick look at what this tour offers
This guided e-bike adventure takes you through some of Lanzarote’s most captivating landscapes, including the Timanfaya Volcanic Natural Park and the lush yet surreal vineyards of La Geria. Led by knowledgeable guides (notably Nacho), you’ll spend about four hours pedaling at a relaxed pace, soaking in impressive volcanic craters, unusual rock formations, and the stark beauty of Lanzarote’s arid scenery.

What we love most? First, the ease of riding on top-tier e-bikes with dual suspension that make tackling both dirt tracks and paved roads comfortable for almost anyone. Second, the personalized touch — from professional photos to a custom video — that leaves travelers with lasting memories.

An in-depth look at what makes this tour special

The route and stops

This tour is designed not just as a sightseeing jaunt but as a comprehensive experience of Lanzarote’s volcanic essence and cultivated lands. Starting in Costa Teguise, you’ll be picked up and transported a short distance to the base of the volcanic park — eliminating the need to worry about parking or getting there yourself.

The first part of the ride takes you through Timanfaya’s volcanic terrain, a surreal landscape dotted with craters, lava fields, and jagged rocks. The reviews consistently highlight how impressive and awe-inspiring these volcanic features are — “the volcanoes were impressive,” says Christophe. You’ll see craters up close, all on smooth, well-maintained dirt tracks that are manageable even if you’re not a seasoned cyclist.

As you pedal across this moon-like landscape, your guide (Nacho) will share insights about the geology and history that shaped this area. Many travelers note how knowledgeable and enthusiastic guides make a difference — “Nacho was an AMAZING guide,” says Candace, “and he explains everything with passion.”

Next, the tour heads toward the vineyards of La Geria, a stark contrast to the volcanic landscape. Here, you’ll cycle through lunar landscapes with black volcanic soil and stone enclosures that protect the grapevines from the wind. It’s an unusual sight, and the scenery is both beautiful and bizarre. During the visit, your guide might point out the local wine production, which has gained international recognition. Several reviews rave about the quality of the wine and the scenic beauty — “We learned a lot about volcanos and wines,” says Katrien.

The quality of the bikes and safety

The e-bikes provided are clearly high-end, with dual suspension and long-lasting batteries. This means a smooth ride over uneven terrain and less fatigue, allowing you to focus on the views rather than the pedals. The helmets are included, and a guide is always present to ensure your safety and give tips on handling the bikes.

Many travelers mention how easy and comfortable the bikes are, even for those with limited cycling experience. “The bikes are brilliant,” says Kevin, “and the guide was fantastic!” This makes the tour accessible to a wide range of fitness levels—you don’t need to be a bike pro, but you should be prepared for some pedaling.

The guide and group size

The tour is designed for small groups—maximum six travelers, which creates an intimate and personalized experience. Many reviews highlight the passion and knowledge of guides like Nacho, who takes time to explain the geological and cultural details. “Nacho was an amazing guide,” says Candace, “and he sent us a wonderful video afterward.”

Because of the small group size, you’ll find it easier to ask questions and receive tailored attention, making the entire experience more engaging and less rushed.

The overall experience and value

At $149.70 per person, this tour offers excellent value — you’re getting a professional-guided tour on high-quality e-bikes, plus photos and videos to remember your adventure, and water and energy gels to keep you fueled. Many reviews confirm that the quality of the experience exceeds expectations, with several calling it their “favorite” or “holiday highlight.”

The timing at 3:30 pm is perfect for catching the spectacular sunset during your ride back, adding a magical glow to the volcanic scenery.

Practical considerations

While the tour is accessible, some reviewers mention the potential for strong winds, which can make cycling more challenging. It’s advisable to wear comfortable clothing and be prepared for the wind, especially in the open volcanic areas.

Keep in mind that transportation is not included — you’ll need to arrange your own transfer to the meeting point in Costa Teguise. The meeting point is straightforward, with easy access from the cruise port or local accommodations.

From reviews to real life

Many travelers have praised the personalized service, from the explanation of volcanic geology to the photos and videos afterward. “Once I got to grips with the bike,” says one reviewer, “I felt quite confident zooming around with a lot of help from the electric assistance.” This indicates that even those who are not regular cyclists can enjoy the ride with a bit of guidance.

The small group size combined with the expert guidance results in a tour that feels special — not commercialized, but authentic and memorable.
