We saw young dolphins in a boat trip from Gran Canaria, after two diff boat trips off Tenerife we only saw the pilot whales.
You should listen to the bit where you walked passed Mogan beach when you described the recycling bins as recycling toilets 🤣🤣🤣
Every bit as nice as we can remember. Love it, thank you for visiting Puerto Mogan. 👍💕
Our pleasure!
Really enjoyed the vlog, amazing places you guys visited, already booked Tenerife but now thinking of booking Gran Canaria too after watching, so thank you very much for showing us, who haven't been what is like 👍
Have fun!
Outstanding vlog. My heart is in Tenerife, but also enjoy holidaying in Meloneras for the amazing hotels and Mogan for the beautiful scenery and atmosphere. The Canary Islands really do have it all!
Thank you! You too!
Loved this vlog. Shows how different the canary Islands are.
Thank you for a very interesting
vlog both of you must be extremely
tired after such a long day.
Brilliant. xx
Glad you enjoyed it
That was a lovely vlog, brought back so many memories of our honeymoon. We stayed in Puerto Rico and loved visiting Porto Mogan. It’s made us want to go back now. ❤️
Glad you enjoyed it!
Enjoyed the video and was happy to see how much you enjoyed GC! I myself live in Las Palmas and have been here for 6 years now . I work here and am not here for all the tourist attractions but we obviously appreciate the climate and we live our lives around the beach ! We sometimes visit the South of the island and it does feel like a holiday destination . Just spent Christmas in Fuerteventura, a must ! The beaches are amazing !
very fantastic walk in GRAN CANARIA . appreciate so much for share this usefule video for us dear THE KNIGH ..
Enjoyed your video, my Niece and I are flying out in 9 days time to Gran Canaria, stopping in Amadores(next to Puerto Rico ), we love Amadores Beach, it’s stunning there 🙏🏻🎄
What a fantastic Vlog. Loved the way you showed so much of Gran Canaria & fully agree it has a completely different feel to Tenerife. So nice to see you showing us different places ❤❤
Thanks so much! 😊
Great video. Lovely to see Gran Canaria. A favourite island of mine.
Really loved this vlog guys. We have been to Gran Canaria once and to be honest just didn't enjoy it that much as we were close to Playa del Inglese. But this vlog has certainly opened my eyes. Mogan just looked amazing. Thank you so much.
Market day in Peorto Mogan is amazing
Sounds good!
I must say GC looks very appealing, I like how it seems quieter, and totally different. Love LittleVenice ❤
It really is!
This vlog is one of your best, especially as you don't know this island, well done Andrew and Laura xx
Fantastic vlog guys. Gran Canaria great place 👍
It looks like you both had a great day! Gran Canaria is such a beautiful island and the landscapes are really diverse, so everywhere you go has a different feel. Meloneras and Puerto de Mogán are some of my favourite places. If you visit again, I'd recommend exploring some of the north and centre of the island, like the capital Las Palmas and some of the smaller towns and villages like Teror and Tejeda in the mountains. The north is greener and more traditional than the south, which is quite touristy. I guess it's a bit like the contrast between the north and south of Tenerife. I did a year abroad on the island a few years ago teaching English and was based in Las Palmas - the old town is a great place to stroll around, with the cobbled streets, cathedral and some lovely traditional cafes and restaurants, and Las Canteras beach on the other side of town is a great spot if you just want to chill out in the sun for a few hours.
Lovely to visit!
Have never been to Gran Canaria but it looks absolutely lovely. Your vlog really showed it off well. Thanks for going and sharing with us all
I loved this ❤️ I visited Gran canaria Puerto Rico 23 years ago!! Lovely to see the beach and harbour, so many memories. Loved this vlog thanks guys 👍🏻😎
Glad you enjoyed it!
Great composition Andrew, stunning views, your vlogs have turned into mini movies which are so engaging and you don’t realise where the time goes whilst watching. Great travel show content and music with constant informative, enthusiastic commentary so hard to do for many especially on your first visit. Thank you for all the planning you’ve done to show us these picturesque new locations. Maspalomas dunes, Puerto Rico and Mogan great memories relived. Blue sky December unbelievable weather, very lucky, you both obviously enjoyed the visit and it showed. Thanks for sharing, please do it again soon. 5* entertainment.
Thanks David 😊🙌🏼
Hi guys,fantastic vlog of gran canaria and what a lovely place it looked,something a little different for us striders,glad you got back in time for the ferry home🙂👍
Just bn watching this with my wife and remembering how lovely mogan was nd to go back and peurto rico lovely place and also when we stayed in maspalomas brilliant video that's for that 😀
Glad you enjoyed it
Great vlog, I go to Gran Canaria in
January & we are staying in Puerto de Mogan for 2 week. I have been before & agree its beautiful. I will be visiting some of the other places from your vlog too. Happy New Year to you both
I loved seeing the sights in Gran Canaria. I would love to do that trip when next in Tenerife please 🙏 🌸
Mogan is stunningly beautiful The buildings beaches and views breathtaking Thank you for taking us along with you I would love for you to go back
Glad you enjoyed
I’ve been there 5 times since 2017, coming back in two weeks. That’s my place on Earth.
Hi to you both, that's great to hear the FredO cat ferry is 80 mins, I always wondered. Tell Laura Puerto Rico isn't flat for most of it, it's steep like cardiac hill is in LosCris. Also a lot of the dunes is sand blown over from Africa and GC is the first land it hits.
Thanks for the info 😊
stayed in Taurito and got the bus into mogan on market day.lovely way to spend a day there and pleased to see you guys showcasing the resort. you must go to amadores next time you're there. the white coral beach, hotels and beach club are stunning.
Omg that was a fabulous vlog,so we'll put together and it made me so excited about my holiday there.thanks Andrew 🥰🥰
Glad you enjoyed it Sharen 😊
Mogan has been developed and built up quite a lot over the past 15years or so, we went with our son and granddaughter for a day while staying in Rico a couple of years ago and were massively impressed with the new resort as is, it might have changed since then but the only fly in the ointment was that according to the Irish bar owner on the marina we spoke to- the nightlife finishes early on behalf of the local residents nearby. Unless anyone knows different that is
Lovely place!
A just love the way Laura looks at you 😍😂❤️ I go to GC 3 times a year never done these trips love Reef but prefer GC
It was a very good travel blog today of your MEGA day Trip to Gran canaria from tenerife with Fred Olsen Express ferry and then chilling out at some top Destinations in Gran canaria andrew and Laura
Glad you enjoyed it!
Our second home! Have been going with my husband for the past 15 years and usually spend mid January to mid April. You need to go to Las Palmas, the capital and Las Canteras beach. There is Christopher Columbus’s house in las Palmas. Also you need to check out the Yumbo centre at nighttime in Maspalomas/Playa del Ingles. Where you were on Puerto Rico is very touristy. 😎
That is awesome!
Great video you two! keep the good work going in 2023 you are guys are always very watchable and not up yourselfs!
Happy new year👍🏼x
Merry Christmas, Andrew andLaura, many Greats from Belgium, Marc, and Nancy love you guys
Hi Andrew & Laura Love watching your Tenerife videos but really enjoyed your visit to Gran Canaria. We come out to Tenerife but also go to other islands including Gran Canaria. Only flew back from a great holiday in Meloneras last Sunday.
Sounds great!
That brought back so many memories, I had completely forgotten about Morgan, thank you so much for doing that vlog hope you do many more 👍
I hope so too!
Great you both had a fantastic time on my home Island , your vlog was great and showed how beautiful and different the Island’s are , came back from Tenerife 2 weeks ago and loved it . If you come back again I suggest you visit Las Palmas big city vibe but also the beautiful beach of Las Canteras , and the old town , you will love it ! Stride on guys 👍❤️
Thanks so much! 😊
Great vlog. Comming over in 2 days (if our old dog is ok!) Staying in our favourite place- meloneras. Love the chilled out vibe so easy to relax.Usually get a day in puerto mogan qith the ferry feom puerto rico
Glad u enjoyed it. Had our 1st trip to adeje in August!
Yes it’s beautiful too Puerto Rico was my first canary island holiday loved it 😊 xx
It really is!
We are coming to GC next month and staying in the Maspolomas area (at an adults only place) so great to see this and get an idea of the location. Thanks for uploading it and hope you manage to get back soon! ❤️☀️🌴
Yes go back its lovely there
It looks lovely Andrew and nice to see the different parts. 🥰🌞🥰Xxx
Loved this vlog! What a stunning place Gran Canaria is, and like you say a totally different feel to tenerife. As always I love your vlogs, brighten up my day! Hope you manage to get some time off over Christmas to enjoy. Looking forward to the lives your doing. Take care, keep up the hard work, you do an amazing job 😊
Glad you enjoyed it!

Brilliant vlog, especially for me as I am going to Puerto Rico early February, thought we would have a change from Tenerife, can’t believe how much you did in a day. I am working Christmas Eve and Christmas Day, my weekend in, wishing you Laura and both your lovely families a very Happy Xmas ❤
Sounds great!
Merry Christmas 🎄
Loved this vlogg it was 21yrs ago since we went there was lovely to see .
Just gutted u had bad trip back to ferry glad u made it in time .
Xx
Glad you enjoyed it
Brilliant vlog - more island visits please - Kevin & Cyndy
Thanks 😊 maybe!
We will definitely be holidaying at some point in Mogan. Loved it.
Lovely place!
For many years and also for 2023 my yearly Canary roundtrip : in March 8 days in Los Cris Tenerife (H10 Big Sur). in May 10 days in Meloneras Gran Canaria (H10 Meloneras) and end of August 18 days in Playa Fanabe Tenerife (Jardines de Nivaria). Yes indeed Meloneras can be compared with Playa de Duque and Playa Fanabe . Playa des Ingles with Las Americas and Los Cris. The capital Las Palmas GC is also very nice with history. Next time in GC do the walk to Roque Nublo and afterwards to Pico del Nieves (highest point of GC)
Lovely place!
Flying to Gran Canaria this weekend and staying in Puerto de Mogan 😎will definitely take the ferry to Porto Rico and the bus to Melanores after watching your vlog 👍🏻thank you
Watching on catch-up now (just been watching you live in Xmas morning 🎄🎅). Really enjoying this vlog. Thank you, merry Christmas
Loved this vlog thank you!
Great to see you on GC we love and go twice a year to melonaras unfortunately the moonlight cinema is no longer there and now a restaurant the vlog was spot on keep up the great work
Thanks for the info!
Stunning views from the mountain. Puerto Rico looked very hilly too hilly for us. Loved Puerto mogan. Would you consider staying overnight if you returned. Another great vlog.
Merry Christmas 🎄🎉✨❤️
Its a fab island - It really is a mini continent
Amazing to see!
@@TheKnightStrider You turn one corner and its like the grand canyon turn another and its like being in Switzerland its honestly an amazing island
Really enjoyed that vlog. Love both Tenerife & Gran Canaria, don’t feel the need to choose between the two. However, if you go again, you should definitely go to Las Palmas, it’s bigger and better than Santa Cruz IMO 👍
What a beautiful place mogan is liked melanoras checked the hotel prices there to expensive great one laura and Andrew 👍 👏 x
So cool!
Hi Andrew, just watched your video of gran caneria it was great. We have been going to tenerife for a few years now but have decided to have a change to maspalomas in gran caneria in June. We'll be staying at the Palace oasis for 2 weeks, really looking forward to it after watching your video. We'll be back in costa adeje in September hope to see you then. Keep up the videos of gran caneria.
Sounds great!
Loved this blog we have stayed in a apartment in mogan and loved it there so many nice resturants
Thanks 😊
I love Gran Canaria. Your blog is great. enjoyed it so much
I agree Mogan is beautiful. Melonarares you were near my hotel I stayed in. You must go back to Gran Canaria. I loved my week there and your blog brought so many memories. The sunsets are amazing.
Glad you enjoyed it!
This was a great vlog really lovely island to visit I’ve never been there would love to visit
Great video Andrew, not been to GC for 7 years but this has whetted my appetite for a return visit in March, staying in Puerto Rico. Would be great if you do go back to do Las Palmas and some if the mountain villages.
Been there many times fantastic will be back april
Great place
Great to see Gran Canaria - I visited for the first time in June and Im due to go back twice next year. I did a circular tour of the Island in a minibus and the trip from Maspalomas to Agaete was pretty hair raising. If I was driving I think i'd go via Las Palmas and along the road which runs along the north coast to Agaete. Its a much better, flatter road. The are improving the direct road but this involves a lot of tunnelling. If you are missing your Ale Hop fix there is definitely at least one branch in Las Palmas. Please go back and visit Gran Canaria again.
Lovely place 😊
Very interesting vlog, loved Mogan would definitely consider a visit. Great filming and commentary as usual ❤
Thanks so much! 😊
Amazing vlog. Morgan looked stunning very picturesque would love to visit one day if I can tear myself away from Tenerife
You should!
Good insight . Regular in GC oner last 15 yr . This is a fair review
Brilliant vlog we have been to Tenerife and lanzarote numerous times but we really do find puerto rico in GC the best place to stay out of the islands.. need to try fuerteventura next maybe October
Harbour Lights is where we ate on our wedding annerversary.
Great video very informative
Really enjoyed this xx
So glad!
Glad u enjoyed Mogan. Next time, possibly check out viewing platform.
The yellow submarine is a great thing to do and I highly recommend it.
I did notice a man trying to find a pea for €500.
Con games exist it this little picturesque fishing village called Mogan.
Great video! Thank you.
Glad you liked it!
Love Gran Canaria ♥ Puerto Rico is lovely but VERY steep. Mogan is gorgeous.. A real Mediterranean haven ☀
The Canary Islands are in the Atlantic Ocean, not the Mediterranean.
@@ChrissieSM That's why I said it's a Mediterranean haven.... That's why ppl call it, 'Little Italy' although it's in the Canaries ☀
De que mar hablas.......?
No tienes ideas de nada.
Para subir.... Hay un medio que se llama ascensor paronamico
Estás opinado desde un total desconocimiento
I recommend u some spots like Las Canteras pormenade, beauiful, then you have San Agustín beach, Anfi del Mar is a little paraide, Arguineguin is like more local vibes, still beautiful.Playa del Inglés is a wonderful beach. In Puerto Rico, go to Mogan mall.
Thanks 😊
Thank you
Hi guys the dunes are amazing just have to be careful where you walk 🙈😂😂
Yes lol 😆
I’m very lucky to of been to all the Canary Islands multiple times each one completely different but amazing at the same time 😊 should try to get to different islands 👍😊 the views are awesome love exploring
Just like to say you guys do an amazing job also entertaining & showing everything you can love the channel watch all the vlogs n lives or on catch up thank you so much for everything 🙏👍😊💜🎄🎄 Merry Christmas

Any body going to Gran Canaria i would recomend the jeep tours, as you get to go throught the villages up in the mountains. see more than the coach tours
Them glasses marks getting whiter everytime 😄. Nice vid
Yes please go over again do day or weekend in Morgan Puerto Rico be fantastic 😊
Next time!
Right! I'll go to sauna now and return after that!
🙌🏼🙌🏼
Stayed at lopesan baobab hotel which was amazing for my 60th in meloneres. Loved it but still prefer Tenerife 🥰
Sounds great!
Enjoyed that vlog Andrew & Laura you need to stay overnight nxt time you have a couple days off xx
That's the plan!
So u worked and lived in porto rico for 5 half years and Morgan was a small fishing town it looks like they have invested money into it also same as porto rico that s amazing blog to see one my home s obviously after the problem for two years it's nice tourist loving life and enjoying life amdorrosse beautiful if you get a chance
Sorry I meant amdorrose beach ⛱️ just outside poto rico lovely restaurant s
Great to watch and see all the places you visited on Gran Caneria , bought back some great memories of when we visited several years ago in 2016 , lovely canary Island but must say Tenerife is definitely our favourite 👍great vlog as always 👏👍😄
A really really good vlog. I thought you could only fly from tenerife to gc. Thank you.
You can but then wouldnt have a car
@@TheKnightStrider Yeah. I wish I could take the ferry from Los Cristianos to Maspalomas. Wouldn't be so far I think. Now up to Santa Cruz or North airport then to GC and then down to Maspalomas. Much longer way.
Please do more in gran canaria
Maybe 🤔
hi my partner and i are planning on going in may self catering , how much spending money would you say to bring , we are not big drinkers maybe 1 or 2 drinks ect , not big eaters either haha but is it expensive there would you say ? we will be going for a week
thanks :)
