GRAN CANARIA CAR HIRE REVIEWS
Car hire reviews in Gran Canaria
The small, almost subtropical island of Gran Canaria is the perfect place for a motoring holiday at any time of the year. With its verdant valleys, soaring mountains and long sandy beaches, it's a place of exceptionally beautiful scenery interspersed with large portions of protected nature reserves blooming with endemic flora. Here you can drive through tiny whitewashed villages where the pace of life hasn't changed very much since the time of Franco, and carrying on into the island's lush green laurel forest interior you can easily forget you're less than 300 miles away from the Western Sahara. Las Palmas, the island's capital, has many interesting sights and is normally the first port of call for most first-time visitors. With its twin belltowers dominating the city's skyline, its 16th-century cathedral is a striking example of Canarian architecture stretching back hundreds of years, while the Diocesan Museum in its south wing features a rich collection of rare religious art. Now a fascinating museum, the nearby Casa de Colón is the house where Christopher Columbus stayed before discovering the New World. Set in a beautiful valley a few miles outside the city, the Jardín Botánico Viera y Clavijo offers visitors the chance to really relax in a gorgeous botanical garden filled with native Canarian flora. Covering around 580 square-miles, Gran Canaria is a relatively small island that's ideal for discovering by car. Its enchanting south coast is one long stretch of golden, sandy beaches lined by world-class holiday resorts. The Maspalomas sand dunes on the island's southern tip are one of the most unforgettable natural sights in the whole of the Canary Islands.
