Quick Details
Experience and Enjoy a Banana Farm Tour!
Our farm crops have enormous biodiversity. On the farm we find more than 15 varieties of aromatic plants scattered throughout the surface of the plantation, a wide variety of insects, from sarantontones and chrysopas to phytoseiullus persimilis, all of them of great help when it comes to combating pests.
In addition, we use earthworms to fertilize the land and an endless number of birds (pigeons, owls, kestrels, hoopoes…) brighten our day to day and beautify our views.
Following the principles of permaculture, we plant oats in the corridors that separate the rows of banana trees. This cereal has excellent regenerative properties that help keep the soil young. In this way, we have managed to create our own ecosystem and be 95% self-sufficient.
All guided tours last approximately 1 hour. You’ll learn all the remarkable facts about bananas and taste the local Tenerife banana. The actual start of your tour may vary past the time you booked to accommodate tour spacing.
What is included:
- Arrival and welcome
- Guided tour of the farm and workshop about banana production

After booking, we will send all the details of the reservation, as well as the location of the farm and the contact information of the producer.
If you wish to propose another day or time for the experience, send us a message at hello@farmexperiencestours.com and we will do our best to reschedule, or we can include one more experience for all day.
Reviews
A really interesting tour. Highly recommended. Having been on a banana museum tour before we weren't sure how much new we would learn. We shouldn't have worried. Miguel shared a lot of interesting facts we haven't heard before and gave us a great insight into the vision and plans for this wonderful eco venture.
Very informative tour. It was great to see all stages of growing plants and find out about a sustainable approach to farming.
Fun experience with a knowledgable and very friendly guide. You learn all about the ecological growth process of the banana and can freely walk around the premises afterwards. You end the tour with a taste of banana liquor and, of course, a fresh banana
