Island Tour

See all the highlights of Tenerife in just one day! From towering cliffs to charming historic towns and iconic landmarks, this full-day adventure takes you on a whirlwind tour around the island, combining breathtaking nature, culture, and unforgettable views.

Description

We’ll pick you up from your hotel or designated bus stop in southern Tenerife and begin our journey to the spectacular Los Gigantes Cliffs, known for their towering rock formations rising dramatically from the ocean.

Next, we’ll continue to the Mirador de Garachico for breathtaking coastal views. Our route then takes us to Icod de los Vinos to see the iconic Millennial Dragon Tree, a botanical symbol of Tenerife.

From there, we’ll explore the charming town of La Orotava, including a visit to the famous Casa de los Balcones, showcasing traditional Canarian architecture and culture.

We then head to Puerto de la Cruz, where you’ll have free time for shopping, sightseeing, and lunch at your own expense. On the way back south, we’ll make a final stop in Candelaria to see the Patron Saint of the Canary Islands before returning to your hotel.

Important Update: Due to major works in Candelaria, the usual stop may be temporarily modified on Tuesdays. Instead, you’ll enjoy extra time in La Orotava to explore the town. We will keep guests updated as soon as the situation changes.

    Amazon and well-organised tour to Teide National Park We had a great Day in Teide National Park. This is a very impressing and unique area - the volcanos were amazing. The Team also booked whale watching and a car for two days, for us. The agency is very well organised, family-friendly and absolutely focused on clients needs - they made sure that we had Tour with a German-speaking Tour guide and that we got the right booster seats in the car -this was important for our kids. Excellent Service. Thank you very much, Team.

    Fantastic After watching Daniel on YouTube we decided that we would book through Tenerife First Excursions and the service and communication was excellent. The tour itself was amazing and the guys really looked after us and were extremely knowledgable about the stars and planets. The photos are included on this trip and there were plenty of wow moments. This is a fantastic trip and we will definitely look at booking another trip through Tenerife First Excursions next time we visit Tenerife.

    Brilliant staff customer interaction and support I would absolutely recommend. The boat had about a dozen people on board, felt roomy and there was loads of room to move about. Fabrizio who led to the trip was the perfect host. He was interesting explained things well. His customer care was another level. Looking after our needs and also being super supportive, helping one of my 4 boys through sea sickness, supporting getting him swimming, praised the lad when he went swimming, and ultimately cured his sea sickness. If I come back to Tenerife, I'll book this trip again I highly recommend you do the same.

    Made our holiday The most amazing experience. Pick up was easy and on time, you then drive to the restaurant. Food is incredibly basic but you don’t go to an excursion like this for food. We then went up into the national parks before sunset to enjoy a glass of cava and take pictures above the cloud line. From there, we went up further to observe the night sky- no spoilers. Incredible experience, the best thing we did this holiday. The guys are so knowledgeable, answer any of your questions, and help you see through the telescopes. You can tell they are so passionate about their jobs, it is their hobby too. Don’t hesitate. Book this if you’re in Tenerife.

    Trip to La Palma We took a day trip to La Palma from Tenerife on the Fred Olsen Ferry. We had a wonderful day. The arrangements were seamless. We were picked up at the port in La Palma and travelled on a very comfortable bus around the island. We viewed the devastation caused by the recent volcanic eruption and got a feel for the impact it had on the lives of those who live there. A lovely lunch in a small harbour before returning. We also had the opportunity to spend some time in the very quaint town of La Palma. Our guide Mattie was excellent and switched between Spanish and English with ease. An excellent day but be warned the chopping is often rough so take seasick tablets!

    Lovely little 3hrs trip. Lovely 3 hr trip from Porto Colon. The price even includes pick up from most hotels in the resort. (Or a short walk to your nearest one or make your own way there). Lovely few hours sailing out to sea and looking at the marine life. We were lucky enough to see lots of pods of pilot whales and dolphins very close to our boat. Includes a short stop off for about 30 mins at a little beach area where everyone can jump off the back of the boat to cool off. Ham and cheese Sandwich each and unlimited beer, wine and soft drinks. Only thing I would like to see improved is a reduction in the smell of diesel in the port. It’s overwhelming!! In our group of 7, 1 was a little seasick. But the staff were very attentive- spraying her with cold water and cooking her down.
