Lanzarote: Teguise Handicraft Market and La Graciosa Island

9.Lanzarote: Teguise Handicraft Market and La Graciosa Island

★★★★★★★★★★4.4 · 150 reviews · 7 hours · from $77

Review of Lanzarote’s Teguise Market and La Graciosa tour, with ferry views, paella lunch, practical tips, timing, value, and drawbacks.

“A brilliant day all round with lots of contrasts. Even collecting people from the various hotels gave us a view of different parts of the island. Teguise is a fascinating old village set in the arid landscape. The market was teeming with customers, but there was no hassling and the atmosphere warm and welcoming. All the usual items on offer but intermingled with some beautiful artisan made goods. The time allowed there was about right. A drive through the volcanic landscape to Orzola was accompanied by interesting information provided by our excellent guide Carolina. La Graciosa made a wonderful contrast to Teguise and the bustle of the market. Here, life…”

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 128 reviews · 8 hours (approx.) · from $143

Cross from Nice into Italy for market shopping, coastal views, and Dolceacqua on an eight-hour small-group tour.

“The towns are fantastic! Especially San Remo! I loved the town and the market. Menton was also lovely and worth visiting. I really thought there was very little in Dolceacqua. We saw the old town, but very little was open. The restaurant in the square had delicious local wine, pasta and pizza. Very reasonably priced. We also had a very nice cappuccino. We spent the majority of our time there. Others in our group went to the Italian restaurant on the side of the road as you come into town not on the square, they said it was the worst meal (no pizza and overcooked cold pasta) and they tried…”

Shop Campo de' Fiori with a chef, make fresh pasta, and enjoy a Roman meal in a historic palazzo cooking school.

“The market tour and tastings included outstanding local produce, cheeses, and meats. Max was flexible about adding in Agretti or Monk's Beard to our menu. It is a wildly delicious and nutritious veggie that was new to us for a side dish. When we took the ingredients to his cooking school, it was also helpful to have him demonstrate how to prepare freshly harvested spring artichokes to add to our homemade ricotta ravioli. Max’s pasta making tips were excellent and our pasta was tender but held its structure. Tiramisu is a staple dessert in many Italian restaurants but I believe Max’s version is far superior. Every dish was very delicious!…”

★★★★★★★★★★4.0 · 28 reviews · 4 hours (approx.) · from $90

Review of Istanbul’s 4-hour Grand Bazaar and Egyptian Bazaar tour, with shopping tips, guide strengths, costs, cautions, and practical advice.

“I hadn’t thought much about the reservation when I booked. The tour guide, Ertugrul, was excellent. He was personable and interested in finding what we were looking to see and purchase. Other tour guides had tried to pressure us into situations of which we weren’t interested but Ertugrul had connections in the bazaar and showed us the quality places for things we were seeking like iznik ceramic pieces. We weren’t looking for brand named fashion items or rugs which you can certainly find there. I only wish I bought a few more things because the quality and price was better than in other places. I didn’t have any problem getting…”
