Canary Islands, multi-activity in Tenerife and La Gomera

Here we propose a discovery-adventure focused on two very different islands: Tenerife and La Gomera. To make this stay unforgettable, we'll hike the most beautiful trails, but also kayak, cycle, sail in search of dolphins and whales, and even discover a fun way of getting around used by the shepherds of La Gomera, the "shepherd's leap.".

The first is the spectacular "Salto del Pastor" (Shepherd's Leap), which involves traversing the steep mountains using a wooden pole for support. The second is "Silbo," a whistled language that allowed shepherds to communicate with each other over long distances... and which is now taught in schools and has been declared an Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity by UNESCO.
