Ok, these were the prices recently but things change by the day on the Island.
Timannfaya + Cesar Manrique €8
Jameos del Agua + Cueva de los verdes €7
Cactus Garden €4 + free drink,
Mirador del Rio about the same + free drink,
Guanapay Castle €4
and finaly the contemporary Art museum is free.

Hope this answers some of your questions. If you want anymore info either contact me on here or via e-mail.

I also know where the grave of the late great César Manrique is too, strange thing to know but some people like to visit the grave/memorium to the great man after they have seen all his good work.
