Im Archipel der Kanaren ragen die Vulkaninseln wie eine Fata Morgana aus dem Atlantischen Ozean. In diesem Land der tausend Kontraste bilden karminrote und aschgraue Mondlandschaften, mit üppiger Natur ausgekleidete Täler, zerklüftete Buchten und Sanddünen eine herrliche Vielfalt. PONANT lädt Sie ein, im Herzen dieser von der Natur beherrschten Inseln eine unvergessliche 8-tägige Reise an Bord der Le Dumont-d'Urville zu unternehmen.
Ihre Reise beginnt auf der Insel Gran Canaria in Las Palmas, dann nimmt die Le Dumont-d’Urville Kurs gen Osten, auf die Schwesterinsel Fuerteventura. In Puerto del Rosario können Sie die Altstadt mit Häusern im kanarischen Stil bewundern, die außergewöhnlichen Panoramen der beeindruckenden Sanddünen genießen oder bei einer Wanderung die Biodiveristät der Insel entdecken.
Inspirierend, rätselhaft, geheimnisvoll … Lanzarote, die Feuerinsel, zeigt sich in einer bezaubernden Umgebung aus majestätischen Gipfeln, Weinbergen auf vulkanischem Boden und unberührten Nationalparks. Die Insel ist auch für ihre zahlreichen Vulkantunnel und -höhlen berühmt, die einzigartige Augenblicke in einer faszinierenden Unterwelt bieten.
Ihr Schiff nimmt nördlichen Kurs und steuert das pulsierende Los Cristianos an. Lassen Sie sich von der unvergleichlichen Atmosphäre, dem mythischen Berg Teide, höchster Gipfel Spaniens, und den langen Sandstränden, die vom türkisfarbenen Wasser des Atlantik gesäumt werden, verzaubern.
Dann erwartet Sie eine Auszeit in Santa Cruz de La Palma. Hier werden Authentizität und Ruhe groß geschrieben und Sie werden von der bewahrte Natur und dem atypischen architektonischen Erbe mit traditionellen kanarischen Häusern mit farbenfrohen Holzbalkonen, prächtigen Palästen und religiösen Gebäuden begeistert sein.
Die Reise geht weiter nach El Hierro, den kleinsten Inseln der Kanaren. Eine Oase des Friedens und der Ruhe, durchzogen von vulkanischer Wüste und Kiefern- und Lorbeerwäldern. Diese großen, grünen und unberührten Flächen können Sie unter anderem bei einer Erkundung der Insel mit dem Elektrofahrrad genießen.
Le Dumont-d’Urville vor La Gomera vor Anker gehen. Diese kleine Insel mit einer üppigen Vegetation gehört aufgrund ihres Biosphärenreservats zum UNESCO-Weltkulturerbe. Außerdem ist die Insel für ihre Pfeifsprache El Silbo bekannt. Diese wurde von den Einwohnern erfunden, um sich zwischen den Tälern zu verständigen.
Schließlich geht es weiter nach Las Palmas auf Gran Canaria, der letzten Station Ihrer Reise auf den Kanarische Inseln.

Das sonnige Etappenziel Las Palmas befindet sich an der Nordostküste von Gran Canaria. Nur wenige Straßen vom Hafen Puerto de la Luz entfernt, lässt sich der weitläufige Strand Las Canteras entdecken, der mit den für die Stadt so typischen Palmen gesäumt ist. Sie finden diese überall in den Straßen und auf den Plätzen wie insbesondere der Plaza de Santa Ana im Herzen des historischen Viertels. Hier fühlen Sie sich vor den hohen, an die Kathedrale Santa Ana angrenzenden Gebäude in vergangene Zeiten zurückversetzt. Ganz in der Nähe von dort können Sie die Casa de Colón besichtigen. Dieses Museum ist dem berühmten Seefahrer Kolumbus gewidmet und befindet sich in dem ehemaligen Gouverneurspalast der Insel. Aber Sie können sich auch zur Markthalle von Vegueta aufmachen, um den Alltag der Stadtbewohner zu teilen und unbekannte Gaumengenüsse zu kosten.

During the past 20 years Fuerteventura has been famous for its 72 km of sandy beaches – over the past few years this has changed. More and more people are now discovering the island’s excellent conditions for nature walks, especially during the winter season, when the mountain range of Betancuria can turn into a green oasis full of flowers. Just as Betancuria was the very first capital of the Canary Islands, the mountains of this area are the oldest of the whole archipelago! The plutonic rocks are a fascinating theme to this walk.
Board your coach and drive to Vega de Rio Palma to begin the first part of your hike. Those, who are interested, can see the Virgen de la Peña, the islands patron in the church nearby.
Later, you will pass a former water reservoir which today is a nature reserve where there’s the chance to see eagles and maybe one of the last surviving Canarian vultures. Endemic plants, unique geological formations and the fact that in this gorge the sculpture of the island’s saint was rediscovered, make this walk one of the most important of the island. The tour ends in a fishing village on the west coast – Ajuy (sea level). It was one of the very first harbours in the history of Fuerteventura and it’s a ‘mecca’ for geologists from all over the world. Recently, the old limestone furnaces have been restored; there is an access to the caves, a fascinating protected beach and several typical local bars where you can relax.
After this adventure, you will reboard your coach and drive back to your ship.

Continue to La Gayria Eco Museum. La Gayría is a rural estate of 55,000 square meters, which in the 18th century was a manor house with traditional stone architecture, around a central patio protected from the wind, which today is an open-air museum of unique implements and ustensils. In the center of the island and with views of the last volcano of Gayría, today it is a farm where you can enjoy simple experiences, garden products, get to know the local production, and in a special way the nature of Fuerteventura.

From the pier, embark your coach for a one-hour scenic drive to the picturesque village of Haria, known as the “valley of a thousand palms”. Surrounded by lush green fields and colourful meadows, you can admire whitewashed houses, shady palms, and tropical flowers line its narrow streets.
You will then continue to Mirador del Rio, Lanzarote's most famous viewpoint. This former gun emplacement has been converted in 1973 by local artiste Cesar Manrique into a recreational and ecological location. From the balustraded café or the vantage point of the balcony, you will have some of the most breath-taking views in the entire archipelago. Standing 500 metres above sea level, you can see the entire northern coastline, the straits of El Rio and Las Salinas del Rio, the island's oldest salt plains which have been used since Roman times.
Next, you will reboard your coach and travel to Los Jameos del Agua. This massive open-air cavern is part of a long volcanic tunnel that was formed 3,000 years ago by molten lava. Due to gasses pression, the tunnel collapsed in some parts creating large openings. In 1968, Manrique had the idea to turn these openings into a tropical garden with a pool, a bar and a 600-seat auditorium.
Upon arrival, you will climb down a stone staircase into the first cave known as Jameo Chico. You will continue along a pathway crossing a lake filled with tiny albino crabs, a rare and delicate marine crustacean. Following the footpath, you will reach Jameo Grande, a huge open-air cave lined with tropical plants and a turquoise pool.
After visiting the auditorium, you will reboard your coach and get back to your ship.

From the pier, you will board your coach and start your journey at National Park Timanfaya and the famous Fire Mountains of Lanzarote.
Upon arrival, you will enjoy a guided tour of the park. The park’s lack of wildlife creates a surprising air of calm and silence. It´s hard to imagine what a volcanic eruption would be like, but the land is still bubbling beneath the surface and the craters and the active volcanoes will amaze you. Islote de Hilario is one of the most original islets, or kipukas, in the Canary Islands, and it stands out from other islets because it is covered by the pyroclasts of the Timanfaya eruption of 1730-1736. However, the main characteristic of this geological attraction is the presence of thermal anomalies. This area registers the highest thermal anomalies in the Canary Islands. Then, you will attend geothermal demonstrations and will gain an appreciation for the power of the active volcanoes under your feet.
After admiring this astonishing natural beauty of the national park, you will appreciate the El Golfo viewpoint overlooking El Charco de los Clicos, a green lake formed by a volcanic crater and located in the middle of a black sand beach.
The journey back to the pier passes by the beautiful Vineyards of La Geria, where of course you will have the chance to taste typical Lanzarote wine. This wine producing area is a few miles inland; the wall of volcanic rock divides the apparently barren field but, within these walls, the wine flourish under a layer of Picón (porous lava granules which absorb the dew at night and provide constant moisture to the plants).

César Manrique, the renowned Spanish artist, architect, and environmentalist, was definitely the most important artist to hail from the Canary Islands. He got popular as painter, sculptor, architect, gardener and outdoor designer. He was also as passionate defender of the environment. Thanks to his everlasting work, the coasts of Lanzarote stayed clear, hotel buildings were kept reduced, and the characteristics of villages and landscapes remain authentic.
Meet your guide, board your coach and drive to the César Manrique Foundation, or Fundación Cesar Manrique (FCM). It is a cultural institution and was established in 1982 by Cesar Manrique,
The foundation aims to preserve and promote the artistic and cultural legacy of the artist, as well as to foster the conservation and sustainable development of the island of Lanzarote. Manrique was deeply connected to Lanzarote and played a significant role in shaping the island's identity and protecting its natural beauty.
The Foundation is housed in Manrique's former residence. The building itself is an architectural masterpiece, blending harmoniously with the surrounding volcanic landscape. It integrates natural volcanic bubbles and caves into its design, showcasing Manrique's philosophy of merging art with nature.
The rooms are filled with his paintings, sculptures, and personal objects, offering a glimpse into his creative process and inspirations.
One of Manrique's most significant contributions to Lanzarote was his emphasis on preserving the island's natural beauty and promoting sustainable development. He advocated for responsible tourism, highlighting the importance of maintaining a balance between economic growth and environmental conservation.
Then, you will re-board your coach and head to the Cactus Garden which is a perfect example of how to combine Architecture with the environment without destruction. Manrique createdthis brave monument maintaining the connection between Art and nature, which is reflected in all his creations. The Cactus Garden, also known as Jardín de Cactus. It is a tribute to the island's unique landscape.
The Cactus Garden was inaugurated in 1990 and is built within an old quarry, showcasing Manrique's ability to integrate art and nature. The garden features over 1,400 species of cacti from different parts of the world, creating a stunning display of shapes, sizes, and colors.
The garden is designed in a circular shape, with terraced levels that blend harmoniously with the surrounding volcanic environment. Manrique incorporated various elements into the garden's design, including stone walls, paths, and seating areas, all carefully crafted to complement the cacti.
At the centre of the garden stands a restored windmill, which adds to the unique ambiance and serves as a symbol of Lanzarote's agricultural past. The windmill has been converted into a small museum that provides information about the history and cultivation of cacti on the island.
The garden's terraced layout offers panoramic views of the surrounding countryside, allowing visitors to appreciate both the natural beauty of the plants and the volcanic landscapes that define Lanzarote.
Enjoy a refreshment at the café amidst the peaceful setting, before heading back to the port and you ship.

On September 19, 2021, a new volcanic crater formed in La Palma. The volcano, previously known as Cumbre Vieja, erupted, completely changing the landscape west of the city and creating the new volcano Tagojaite.
Tajogaite is the name given to an area of the island of La Palma belonging to the municipality of El Paso and located south of Los Romanciaderos, near the Montaña Rajada. The toponym appears frequently from the eighteenth century onwards in local documents related to land ownership, but its use dates back to the time when the Benahoarites inhabited the island.
Hiking on the newly named Tajogaite - cracked mountain - you will almost reach the crater, walking along black ash paths lined with Canary pines.
From there, impressive views of the lava flows and the Aridane Valley await you.
Once back on the bus, you will go to the Mirador de Tajuya to enjoy more amazing views of the volcano and lava flows, before returning to Santa Cruz.

Round off your visit to the finca facilities with a tasting of the main dishes and products in La Gomera: gofio and cheese, washed down with a local wine.
Next, you will admire the breathtaking views at the Mirador de Agulo. Surrounded by a massive basalt wall almost 500 meters high, you might even see the nearby island of Tenerife.
On your way to Laguna Grande, you will make a short stop at the Vallehermoso viewpoint, which literally means "beautiful Valley". You will immediately realize the reason it was bestowed such a name.
The tour will continue southwards, and the next stop will be at Los Roques, for a glimpse of the magnificent landscape of basalt formations of volcanic origin such as Roque de Agando. You will then make your way back to the ship.

During the past 20 years Fuerteventura has been famous for its 72 km of sandy beaches – over the past few years this has changed. More and more people are now discovering the island’s excellent conditions for nature walks, especially during the winter season, when the mountain range of Betancuria can turn into a green oasis full of flowers. Just as Betancuria was the very first capital of the Canary Islands, the mountains of this area are the oldest of the whole archipelago! The plutonic rocks are a fascinating theme to this walk.
Board your coach and drive to Vega de Rio Palma to begin the first part of your hike. Those, who are interested, can see the Virgen de la Peña, the islands patron in the church nearby.
Later, you will pass a former water reservoir which today is a nature reserve where there’s the chance to see eagles and maybe one of the last surviving Canarian vultures. Endemic plants, unique geological formations and the fact that in this gorge the sculpture of the island’s saint was rediscovered, make this walk one of the most important of the island. The tour ends in a fishing village on the west coast – Ajuy (sea level). It was one of the very first harbours in the history of Fuerteventura and it’s a ‘mecca’ for geologists from all over the world. Recently, the old limestone furnaces have been restored; there is an access to the caves, a fascinating protected beach and several typical local bars where you can relax.
After this adventure, you will reboard your coach and drive back to your ship.

Continue to La Gayria Eco Museum. La Gayría is a rural estate of 55,000 square meters, which in the 18th century was a manor house with traditional stone architecture, around a central patio protected from the wind, which today is an open-air museum of unique implements and ustensils. In the center of the island and with views of the last volcano of Gayría, today it is a farm where you can enjoy simple experiences, garden products, get to know the local production, and in a special way the nature of Fuerteventura.
You will taste some of the local products before heading to your next stop, the Aloe Vera Finca.
Thanks to its volcanic soils, the Canary Islands are an ideal environment for the cultivation of aloe.

From the pier, embark your coach for a one-hour scenic drive to the picturesque village of Haria, known as the “valley of a thousand palms”. Surrounded by lush green fields and colourful meadows, you can admire whitewashed houses, shady palms, and tropical flowers line its narrow streets.
You will then continue to Mirador del Rio, Lanzarote's most famous viewpoint. This former gun emplacement has been converted in 1973 by local artiste Cesar Manrique into a recreational and ecological location. From the balustraded café or the vantage point of the balcony, you will have some of the most breath-taking views in the entire archipelago. Standing 500 metres above sea level, you can see the entire northern coastline, the straits of El Rio and Las Salinas del Rio, the island's oldest salt plains which have been used since Roman times.
Next, you will reboard your coach and travel to Los Jameos del Agua. This massive open-air cavern is part of a long volcanic tunnel that was formed 3,000 years ago by molten lava. Due to gasses pression, the tunnel collapsed in some parts creating large openings. In 1968, Manrique had the idea to turn these openings into a tropical garden with a pool, a bar and a 600-seat auditorium.
Upon arrival, you will climb down a stone staircase into the first cave known as Jameo Chico. You will continue along a pathway crossing a lake filled with tiny albino crabs, a rare and delicate marine crustacean. Following the footpath, you will reach Jameo Grande, a huge open-air cave lined with tropical plants and a turquoise pool.
After visiting the auditorium, you will reboard your coach and get back to your ship.

From the pier, you will board your coach and start your journey at National Park Timanfaya and the famous Fire Mountains of Lanzarote.
Upon arrival, you will enjoy a guided tour of the park. The park’s lack of wildlife creates a surprising air of calm and silence. It´s hard to imagine what a volcanic eruption would be like, but the land is still bubbling beneath the surface and the craters and the active volcanoes will amaze you. Islote de Hilario is one of the most original islets, or kipukas, in the Canary Islands, and it stands out from other islets because it is covered by the pyroclasts of the Timanfaya eruption of 1730-1736. However, the main characteristic of this geological attraction is the presence of thermal anomalies. This area registers the highest thermal anomalies in the Canary Islands. Then, you will attend geothermal demonstrations and will gain an appreciation for the power of the active volcanoes under your feet.
After admiring this astonishing natural beauty of the national park, you will appreciate the El Golfo viewpoint overlooking El Charco de los Clicos, a green lake formed by a volcanic crater and located in the middle of a black sand beach.
The journey back to the pier passes by the beautiful Vineyards of La Geria, where of course you will have the chance to taste typical Lanzarote wine. This wine producing area is a few miles inland; the wall of volcanic rock divides the apparently barren field but, within these walls, the wine flourish under a layer of Picón (porous lava granules which absorb the dew at night and provide constant moisture to the plants).

César Manrique, the renowned Spanish artist, architect, and environmentalist, was definitely the most important artist to hail from the Canary Islands. He got popular as painter, sculptor, architect, gardener and outdoor designer. He was also as passionate defender of the environment. Thanks to his everlasting work, the coasts of Lanzarote stayed clear, hotel buildings were kept reduced, and the characteristics of villages and landscapes remain authentic.
Meet your guide, board your coach and drive to the César Manrique Foundation, or Fundación Cesar Manrique (FCM). It is a cultural institution and was established in 1982 by Cesar Manrique,
The foundation aims to preserve and promote the artistic and cultural legacy of the artist, as well as to foster the conservation and sustainable development of the island of Lanzarote. Manrique was deeply connected to Lanzarote and played a significant role in shaping the island's identity and protecting its natural beauty.
The Foundation is housed in Manrique's former residence. The building itself is an architectural masterpiece, blending harmoniously with the surrounding volcanic landscape. It integrates natural volcanic bubbles and caves into its design, showcasing Manrique's philosophy of merging art with nature.
The rooms are filled with his paintings, sculptures, and personal objects, offering a glimpse into his creative process and inspirations.
One of Manrique's most significant contributions to Lanzarote was his emphasis on preserving the island's natural beauty and promoting sustainable development. He advocated for responsible tourism, highlighting the importance of maintaining a balance between economic growth and environmental conservation.
Then, you will re-board your coach and head to the Cactus Garden which is a perfect example of how to combine Architecture with the environment without destruction. Manrique createdthis brave monument maintaining the connection between Art and nature, which is reflected in all his creations. The Cactus Garden, also known as Jardín de Cactus. It is a tribute to the island's unique landscape.
The Cactus Garden was inaugurated in 1990 and is built within an old quarry, showcasing Manrique's ability to integrate art and nature. The garden features over 1,400 species of cacti from different parts of the world, creating a stunning display of shapes, sizes, and colors.
The garden is designed in a circular shape, with terraced levels that blend harmoniously with the surrounding volcanic environment. Manrique incorporated various elements into the garden's design, including stone walls, paths, and seating areas, all carefully crafted to complement the cacti.
At the centre of the garden stands a restored windmill, which adds to the unique ambiance and serves as a symbol of Lanzarote's agricultural past. The windmill has been converted into a small museum that provides information about the history and cultivation of cacti on the island.
The garden's terraced layout offers panoramic views of the surrounding countryside, allowing visitors to appreciate both the natural beauty of the plants and the volcanic landscapes that define Lanzarote.
Enjoy a refreshment at the café amidst the peaceful setting, before heading back to the port and you ship.

On September 19, 2021, a new volcanic crater formed in La Palma. The volcano, previously known as Cumbre Vieja, erupted, completely changing the landscape west of the city and creating the new volcano Tagojaite.
Tajogaite is the name given to an area of the island of La Palma belonging to the municipality of El Paso and located south of Los Romanciaderos, near the Montaña Rajada. The toponym appears frequently from the eighteenth century onwards in local documents related to land ownership, but its use dates back to the time when the Benahoarites inhabited the island.
Hiking on the newly named Tajogaite - cracked mountain - you will almost reach the crater, walking along black ash paths lined with Canary pines.
From there, impressive views of the lava flows and the Aridane Valley await you.
Once back on the bus, you will go to the Mirador de Tajuya to enjoy more amazing views of the volcano and lava flows, before returning to Santa Cruz.
