Best tours to visit Timanfaya National Park

Lanzarote is a Biosphere Reserve and has many unique places in the world, which are obviously worth visiting during your holiday in Lanzarote.  

Timanfaya National Park is a must-see on Lanzarote. In this post we give you some tips to take better advantage of your holiday time (how to avoid unnecessary queues, make the best itinerary ...), recommendations about Fire Mountains and all important information about this spectacular National Park of Timanfaya:

 

What are the advantages of booking an tour instead of visiting Timanfaya National Park on my own?

1. AVOID THE QUEUES AT TIMANFAYA!  Depending on the season, you can spend several hours waiting in an endless queue of cars to get to the entrance of Timanfaya National Park. The buses that go on excursions (guided tours to Fire Mountains) have a priority lane free of traffic, which avoids waiting for the entrance to the park. 
2. ENTRANCE TO THE PARK! When you go on your own, the next problem you face is that there are two types of queues: 

2.1 One for private visitors
2.2 Other, for tour groups and guided visits to Timanfaya


This is another inconvenience that you must take into account so as not to lose your day before you start enjoying the visit to Fire Mountains.

LET US GUIDE YOU! As a consequence of the above, you will save time by visiting Timanfaya National Park on one of the guided tours of Lanzarote. You can take advantage of this to get to know other important attractions of the island of volcanoes, Lanzarote, on the same day, such as :

  • El Golfo (also known as Charco de los Clicos or Laguna Verde)
  • Los Hervideros
  • See Las Salinas de Janubio
  • Camel ride near Timanfaya
  • La Geria

And depending on the tour you have booked you can even visit attractions in northern Lanzarote like:

  • Los Jameos del agua 
  • Cueva de los Verdes (Green Cave)
  • El Mirador del Rio

We hope that these recommendations will help you to make the best choice to maximize your time on your holidays in Lanzarote.
