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.

    A brilliant well priced tour We booked the “ Premium All Inclusive Whale & Dolphin Watching Experience” with these guys and as soon as we had booked they were in communication detailing where to meet and what to bring. This was done by WhatsApp and email which worked really well.The yacht was lovely and we had around 11 people in our group so there was loads of room for us all to spread out.There are seats at the back of the yacht if you prefer or you can sit along the side and front to get the full experience.Our captain was wonderful, explained everything to us and we just chilled as we sailed out of the port.You definitely need sunscreen, you are provided with waters, sodas and beers with a sandwich if you want it.At first we were lucky enough to see dolphins which was amazing and then further out saw baby whales with their mom. Was incredible, I’ll never forget it.Then we sailed to a quiet cove where some people got in for a swim and we just caught some sun.Then a slow cruise back along the coast to port, all in all 3 hrs.Really recommend this cruise, was around €50 each and well worth the money.Will do another tour with them when we return to Tenerife.One thing; they were very clear at the start that We might not see everything and as it’s nature, that can’t be helped. Also you only stay near a group of animals for 5 mins before moving away which felt enough time to see them without it being too much.

    Dan, Kim, Matt & all the gang at Tenerife First Excursions are all absolute heroes. I’ve been visiting Tenerife for many years & used many excursion suppliers but these guys are by far the very best.Customer service - including before & after your excursion - is off the charts & 2nd to none. Honest, reliable & professional. One of the only companies I deal with who treat me as not just a customer, but also a good friend.Very highly recommended. Thanks guys!

    Amazing very friendly and polite Amazing, nice boat and managed to see some whales which was well cool, we then stopped for a swim and the sea was full of different fish which was nice to see. The captain was very friendly and funny. The team at Tenerife first excursions was very friendly, would like to say thanks to Daniel and Kim for organising the trip for us will definitely use them again.

    FALTÓ LA SUERTE PERO LO INTENTÓ HASTA EL FINAL Hicimos una excursión de avistamiento con ellos de 3 horas, y estuvo todo perfecto salvo que este día los animalitos no estaban por la labor de mostrarse.Excursión en velero, nosotros éramos 11 personas en total, el velero tiene una zona en la popa junto al capitán de bancos cubiertos por un toldo y también puedes ir en proa al aire libre sentado en la cubierta.Prácticamente al salir te llevan a una cala donde puedes tomar un baño y hacer snorkel, y a la vez sirven la comida que consiste en unas porciones de baguette con jamón, queso, tomate y lechuga, correctos sin más, sirven para alimentarte y si no eres de ir en barco mejor no comer mucho por los mareos. También te ofrecen refrescos y cervezas libremente.Nuestro capitán se pasó las 3 h (menos el tiempo del almuerzo) buscando las ballenas pero ese día no hubo suerte, a pesar de estar comunicado con los compañeros y estar todos barriendo la zona en su busca, este día no se quisieron mostrar, una lástima pero al menos disfrutamos del paseo en barco.Nos comentó que no es lo habitual así que animaos a hacerlo, mucho mejor verlos aquí en libertad que en una piscina de un parque.

    Absolutely amazing team, definitely recommend if you’re wanting to go on some excursions or do the water and animal parks while in Tenerife. Stress free go and book with Tenerife First Excursions, they give you all the details pay and then they sort everything out for you from their you just turn up. Had the pleasure of meeting the lovely Kim who was so welcoming and gave us all the information we needed when we told her what we was looking to do. Competitive prices compared to all the others you see and they definitely only work along side the best companies. We booked Jet skiing, Siam park and the monkey park. Even better that Siam park and the monkey park are open tickets so you can use them on whichever day you decide no deciding beforehand. When we’re back in Tenerife (which we will be as it’s our favourite destination) will definitely go back and book with any of the team as they are brilliant. Thank you to all the team but as I say especially Kim who we saw at booking.
