Lanzarote, designated as a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve in 1993, is a paradise that offers a combination of stunning natural landscapes, rich cultural heritage, and a welcoming atmosphere that makes it a must-visit destination. The island’s unique volcanic scenery, tropical vegetation, and historical sites create an unforgettable experience for travelers.
For those looking to explore the island thoroughly, renting a car is highly recommended. With limited public transport options and the island being relatively small, a car will provide you with the flexibility to visit all the must-see spots at your own pace.
We’ve broken the island into three routes to ensure you don’t miss any of Lanzarote's iconic attractions, from its volcanic formations to its tropical gardens and artistic landmarks.
Some key highlights include:
Jameos del Agua: A beautiful labyrinth of caves and volcanic tubes where you can experience both the island’s natural beauty and the unique art created by César Manrique.
Volcanic Landscapes: Lanzarote is famous for its spectacular volcanic terrain, offering incredible photo opportunities and the chance to explore areas like the Timanfaya National Park.
Tropical Vegetation: Experience the lush greenery that contrasts with the island’s arid volcanic landscape, found in places like the Cactus Garden or the Cueva de los Verdes.
