La Orotava Banana Plantation Tour

Discover the unique qualities of Canary Island bananas on our La Orotava Banana Plantation Tour. The tour begins at your chosen time at the organic banana plantation on El Rincón road in La Orotava, Northern Tenerife, offering views of Mount Teide.

The visit includes a guided walk around the plantation where the origins of the site will be explained. Participants will learn about the banana production process, covering all steps from gestation to commercialization.

We will discuss the unique characteristics of the Canary Island banana, which is the only variety with the Protected Geographical Indication seal. This banana takes three months longer to ripen than American bananas, resulting in its distinct flavor and high nutrient content.

As part of an ecological farm, the tour will also cover the plantation's thriving ecosystem, including beneficial insects, soil health grains, and birds that contribute to fertilization.

The tour concludes with a tasting of Canary Island bananas and a shot made from the fruit, followed by farewells after a 50-minute visit.
