What's the difference between a Canary Island banana and any other banana? Come and find out on our La Orotava Banana Plantation Tour, where you'll learn about banana ripening and local agricultural techniques on an organic plantation.

La Orotava Banana Plantation Tour

At your chosen time, we'll meet at the organic Canary Island banana plantation on El Rincón road, in La Orotava. From this location in Northern Tenerife, you'll also enjoy views of Mount Teide.

Our visit will start with a walk around the grounds while we explain the plantation's origins. As we look at the banana trees, we'll discuss all the steps in the banana production process, from gestation to commercialization.

We'll explain the unique characteristics of the Canary Island banana, the only variety with a Protected Geographical Indication seal. This product takes three months longer to ripen than American bananas, giving it an intense flavor and high nutrient content.

Additionally, as we are on an ecological farm, we'll discuss the thriving ecosystem on this land, including beneficial insects, grains for soil health, and birds that provide fertilizer.

At the end of our walk, we'll enjoy a tasting of Canary Island bananas and a shot made from the fruit. After a 50-minute visit, we'll conclude our tour outside the plantation.
