![]() All the people we met treated us with kindness and were very polite. He will drive this mini rocket at 200Km/h ( top speed) around the track (very safely) and all I could do was laugh like a maniac. This gentleman is a professional race driver and you get to understand why. At the end of our day at the track Paul took us out in the Ariel Atom ( think a kart on steroids) and drove us some laps around the track. A lot to learn and also a very fun experience. The second part of our adventure was driving a large number of laps in a Mazda (prepared a bit for racing) and learning a lot about the right way to approach cornering, breaking, etc. ![]() Maybe this time I could actually use the Porche as it was meant ( need to get better at driving manual on a track). This was super super awesome and I definitely would do it again. A normal session includes a ride along the track with the instructor, some warmup lap with you driving and then a number of laps where you drive as fast as you feel safe with the instructor giving you pointers and ensuring you're not going to crash the super car. They have 5 different super cars you can pick from. All of them were quite amazing but the Nissan takes the prize for most fun. My wife drove the Ferrari Spider ( paddle gears ) and I took for a spin both the Porche GT3 ( manual ) and the Nissan GTR ( paddles). First of all we tried the super car experience. After doing a bit of admin business ( selecting the package, the cars and some other details) we were ready to rumble. At the track we got to meet Sami who was the instructor responsible for us. On the day we were collected from our hotel by the nicest person ever ( for some reason I cannot remember his name) who drove us to the track and on route talked to us about what we should do, answered questions and put us at ease regarding what is to come. First of all the folks were super nice and we made the booking in advance with ease. If you like cars, speed and a bit of adrenaline this is the place for you.

All the Canary Islands are of volcanic origin, but relax, there has been no volcanic activity in hundreds of years, here. If you continue exploring, there are volcanic formations. You will really enjoy visiting the small typical Canarian villages. Getting knee-deep into the Canarian culture is another option. There are plenty of activities available that aren't related to lying on the beach all day, like the various golf courses, the world class shopping centers that we recommend, and attraction parks with birds and dolphins. If you go towards the interior of the island, or towards the north, you will see green fertile valleys, forests of pine and other trees, and plantations of banana trees in various parts of the island. Gran Canaria is more than beaches and sunshine. It is one of the most beautiful places on the island. Puerto de Mogan is also in the south of the island, and is a nice "must-visit" picturesque village.
