The Real Tenerife series of guides are written by travel writers who have gained their knowledge from fourteen years first-hand experience of living and exploring Tenerife’s towns, villages and hamlets; partying at fiestas and concerts; staying in accommodation ranging from the most luxurious hotels to a tent in the forest, eating in restaurants from Michelin Star standard to makeshift joints in garages. Their specialist knowledge is regularly published in newspapers, magazines, websites and by travel companies. Other travel writers come to them for tips.
If you’re itching to discover the best of Tenerife, you’ve just found the perfect place.
The idea was to write a factual book detailing accounts of mystery and magic in the Canary Islands, especially as I hadn’t seen much written about the folklore of the islands in English. […]
We’ve included new information on Tenerife’s unique culinary scene, from its ancient heritage potatoes, prized cochino negro and distinctive mojos to authentic guachinches, providing arguably the most comprehensive guide to Tenerife’s food and drink available in the English language … […]
Much more than just a tourist guide, The Real Tenerife gives you the authors’ insider view of their adopted home, including a guide to all main towns and villages; culture; hotel and restaurant recommendations and much, much more. […]
More than just a collection of the best walking routes for the island, Walk This Way Tenerife is a complete guide to self-guided walking on Tenerife. […]
From this page, simply click on any of the guides which interest you to take you to the webpage about them. On each page there is a link in red to the page where you can purchase them. Walk this Way Tenerife and The Real Tenerife – Insider Guidebook are in printed and Ebook formats available from Amazon. The others are only available in PDF format. I hope this answers your question.
Hi there, I just received your walk this way Tenerife on Amazon and I really like it and prefer it to the cicerone guides. Do you perchance have one for gran canaria as I will be traveling there also in November. I lived on Lanzarote myself for several years before the pandemic so I could easily detect the ex para love of a new home in your book
Hi Jonathan, many thanks for your very kind comments about the book. We had planned to continue the series for the other islands, but it didn’t work out. This was mainly because we were commissioned by UK specialist walking company Inntravel to create Slow Travel/walking guides for the other Canary Islands for them. The hiking on Gran Canaria is excellent, so I hope you find a guidebook which shows you the best routes.

Thank you
