The Experience

Four hours means you move through both caves without the morning crowds or the afternoon rush. Your private driver collects you from your hotel, and a separate tour guide meets you at the first site. Cueva de los Verdes is a lava tube born from the Corona Volcano eruptions — you walk inside the volcanic tunnel itself, and the guide points out the concert hall built into the cave entrance. The cave sits in Haría, on the north side of the island.

After Cueva de los Verdes, you head to Jameos del Agua, also a volcanic space but designed by the architect César Manrique as both a natural site and a cultural center. The main draw is the subterranean salt lake you can see from the walkways — it sits inside the volcanic tunnel, fed by seawater that filters through the rock. The guide walks you through the different sections of the site. If time allows, a short panoramic drive around the surrounding area closes the day before the driver takes you back to your hotel or wherever you choose.

Top questions

What exactly is Cueva de los Verdes and what will I see inside it?

Cueva de los Verdes is a volcanic lava tube created by eruptions from the Corona Volcano, located in Haría in northern Lanzarote. You walk inside the tunnel itself and see the concert hall, a performance space built into the cave entrance.

What is the subterranean salt lake at Jameos del Agua?

Jameos del Agua sits inside another volcanic tunnel, and seawater filters through the rock to create a saltwater lake underground. You view it from the walkways that wind through the site, which was designed by architect César Manrique as a cultural and tourism center.

Does the tour include entrance fees to both caves?

Yes, entrance tickets to both Jameos del Agua and Cueva de los Verdes are included in the tour price, so you don't buy them separately at each site.

Will I have time to explore both caves, or is it rushed?

The four-hour tour is built around visiting both sites with a guide; the timing allows you to see the main attractions at each location without feeling hurried, and if time remains, you get a short panoramic drive of the surrounding area.

How do I get picked up, and can I choose where?

Your private driver collects you from your hotel in Lanzarote at a time arranged when you book. You can also request pickup from another location of your choice, and the driver returns you to the same place at the end of the tour.

What language will the guide speak?

The tour guide speaks English or Spanish; you choose your preferred language at booking.
