Description

Step into the world of César Manrique, the visionary artist and architect who shaped Lanzarote into the harmonious blend of art and nature it is today. Your English-speaking driver/guide will pick you up from your hotel and take you on a half-day journey through some of the island’s most emblematic sites that showcase Manrique’s genius. Begin at the César Manrique Foundation, set in the artist’s former home built into volcanic lava bubbles. Explore his studios, admire his artworks, and see firsthand how he integrated architecture with the island’s natural landscapes—creating a space that feels both futuristic and deeply connected to the earth. Continue to the Monumento al Campesino, Manrique’s tribute to the hard-working farmers of Lanzarote. Surrounded by traditional whitewashed buildings and rural architecture, this striking sculpture stands as a symbol of the island’s agricultural heritage. Discover artisan workshops and cultural exhibits that reveal the daily lives and traditions of Lanzarote’s people. End your experience at the Jardín de Cactus (The Cactus Garden), one of Manrique’s most iconic projects. Here, over 4,500 specimens of cactus from around the world are displayed in a stunning terraced amphitheater carved into a former quarry. With its bold design and vibrant greenery set against volcanic rock, it’s a breathtaking example of Manrique’s ability to celebrate both art and nature in perfect balance. After your visit, your driver/guide will return you comfortably to your hotel, leaving you with a deeper appreciation of Lanzarote’s cultural soul and the man who helped preserve it.
