Local travel agency in the Canary Islands
Canaventura, your local agency based in Ténérife.
Our story
Canaventura was born from a genuine attachment to the Canaries, their volcanic landscapes, and that singular blend of Atlantic, mountains, and preserved villages. From the start, the desire was simple: to showcase these islands differently, away from overcrowded paths.
The agency was founded in 2004 in Tenerife, at Costa del Silencio, from the meeting of a Frenchman and a Spaniard, both mountain guides. Twenty years later, Canaventura remains true to that initial intuition: an English-speaking agency, rooted locally, committed to demanding ecotourism and working hand in hand with craftsmen, farmers and restaurateurs of the archipelago.
Sébastien and Marcos now coordinate a team of experienced guides who know the seven islands in their most intimate corners. Each itinerary is built from this deep knowledge of the terrain, whether it's a trek on the Teide, a crossing at La Gomera, or a family stay between volcanoes and villages.
Here, we don't replicate programs. We build journeys that reflect you.
Canaventura is a member of the Nomadays collective. This partnership allows you to benefit from direct organization with a local team based in Tenerife, while enjoying secure booking in France: payment in euros, protection of deposited funds, APST guarantee and compliance with French tourism law. You thus enjoy the best of both worlds: the proximity of an on-site team and the solidity of a protective legal framework.
The Canary Islands are far wilder and more varied than people imagine. Sometimes you just need to venture a little off the coast to discover a completely different world.

Our local commitment
Travel differently means contributing positively to the communities that welcome you.
Canary Islands sourcing, short circuit
Nights in rural posadas, meals at restaurants in Vilaflor or Agulo, direct purchases from wine, honey and goat cheese producers across the seven islands.
Villages before resorts
Stops at Masca, Chinguaro or Garafía rather than the concrete south: genuine encounters with shepherds, winemakers and descendants of the ancient Guanche people in their daily lives.
Volcanoes and laurel forests respected
Certified trails in Teide, Garajonay and Caldera de Taburiente, small groups, waste brought back down, zero off-trail on fragile lava flows.
Seven islands expertise
Visits to pottery workshops without a wheel at La Atalaya, salt ponds at Fuencaliente and weavers in La Palma, led by the craftspeople themselves.

Do you still have questions? Here are the most frequently asked questions about how our agency works.
Canaventura designs your trip directly in the Canary Islands, with advisors who know the ground daily. You avoid intermediaries, gain in responsiveness and benefit from advice on genuinely lived experiences — no standardized marketing catalog.
Plan ideally 2 to 3 months before departure during peak seasons (hotels and guides are scarcer), 1 month is enough for quieter seasons. For last-minute departures, get in touch with us: we'll honestly tell you if we can put together a quality trip within the timeframe.
Yes, 7 days a week throughout your stay. You'll receive a local WhatsApp number + a dedicated emergency contact. Our on-site team can assist within hours in case of unexpected events (cancelled flight, illness, weather changes).
Your payments are 100% protected by the Professional Solidarity Association for Tourism. If a service provider (hotel, transport, etc.) or the agency fails, your funds are refunded. This is a mandatory guarantee for any French travel agency — Nomadays benefits from it across its entire network.
Yes, as much as possible. Changes made more than 30 days before departure are generally free of charge (excluding hotel rate differences). As your departure approaches, some bookings become less flexible — we always inform you of your options before confirmation.
Payment is made in full in France, in euros, with Nomadays — secured by credit card or bank transfer. You have no payments to make in the Canary Islands: everything is pre-arranged (accommodations, transfers, guides, activities). You just need to budget for meals outside the itinerary and personal purchases.
