Star Gazing on Mt. Teide

Step into an evening above the clouds on this guided journey into the dramatic landscapes of Teide National Park, where volcanic terrain, high-altitude views, and some of the clearest night skies in the world come together in one unforgettable experience.

Description

Your evening begins with hotel pickup in South Tenerife and a relaxed drive up into the mountains. Along the way, your guide sets the scene with stories of Tenerife’s volcanic origins, local legends, and the powerful natural forces that shaped the island.

Dinner in the Mountains

High above sea level at Restaurante 7 Cañadas, you’ll pause for a relaxed three-course Canarian dinner with drinks included. Surrounded by vast lava fields and open skies, this is dining in one of Tenerife’s most striking natural settings.

Sunset Over a Floating Horizon

As the sun begins to drop, the landscape shifts into something almost otherworldly. From over 2,000 metres up, watch the famous “Sea of Clouds” roll beneath Mount Teide as the sky burns with colour. With a glass of cava or orange juice in hand, this is one of those moments that feels both still and cinematic at the same time.

Guided Stargazing in a World-Class Sky

When night settles in, the focus turns upward. With Starlight Certified guides leading the way, you’ll explore constellations, planets, star clusters, and distant galaxies using high-powered telescopes. The experience is designed to be both accessible and fascinating—blending astronomy, ancient mythology, and simple storytelling that brings the night sky to life.

If conditions allow, there’s also time to capture incredible night-sky photos, including the Milky Way stretching across the horizon.

An Award-Winning Night Experience

Consistently recognised with Tripadvisor Travelers’ Choice Awards over the past four years, this is one of Tenerife’s most highly regarded evening excursions—combining scenery, science, and atmosphere in a single journey.

    Great advice from Lindsay and a excellent visit to Siam Nights Lindsay at the Golf Del Sur Office was great in explaining the various options of Siam Park. Based on her recommendations we opted for Siam Nights , our teenage daughters loved it and we would recommend it so as not to have to queue up for the rides in direct sunlight, it wasn’t too busy and in just a couple of hours we went on over 10 rides without any fast passes.

    We booked and enjoyed the 4.5 hour boat trip Los Gigantes / Masca Bay tour. It was a wonderful excursion, numerous whales and dolphins were to be seen. Everything worked out great, there was a great opportunity for a refreshing swim. This was not our first booking with Tenerife First Excursions and definitely not the last!

    Awesome can’t recommend enough! Booked all of our excursions through LisaFay who was absolutely amazing. We booked Siam Park, the jet cars, the sunset quad trip and she chucked in free monkey park tickets which was brilliant as we was planning on going anyway! Can’t thank Lisa and the team enough we lost our tickets and she was amazing reassuring us that we could still complete the excursions and assured us that the tour providers were aware we would have photos of the tickets rather than the physical ticket. The sunset quad tour was absolutely breathtaking, we got picked up from our hotel fully safety briefed on driving the quads which was really helpful as we were both a little anxious due to never driving one before. As we drove up towards mount Teidi we stopped off at various different view points and were given water and snacks and then non-alcoholic Prosecco to watch the sunset. The guys that took us up who worked for Tenerife first quads were awesome giving us facts about the surroundings as we stopped. Can’t recommend this excursion enough to anyone visiting Tenerife. Thank you so much to the team at Tenerife first excursions enough for being so brilliant and will 1000 percent use them the next time we visit Tenerife!

    Highly recommend After seeing them in tiktok we decided to visit to book our trip and they were so helpful and friendly! Really welcoming and no pressure, happy to chat and give tips and ideas. Think it was Richie that helped us at the las americas branch and he was a lovely guy. Our coach was modern and clean and not too busy and all went smoothly on the journey and during our visit to loro parque

    Amazing week in Tenerife, thanks to Sarah and her team ❤️ We booked all of our trips with Sarah. She was super friendly and felt like a friend. Because we booked quite a few activities we had a lot of money knocked off aswel. LORO PARQUE We did Loro Parque with coach transfer from Los Cristianos. The coach was about an hour and a half. The park itself was amazing. Our main reason for the visit was to see the Orca whales. They didn't disappoint. Beautiful animals. 😍 Note...the park doesn't sell bottles of anything, all drinks are in cans. SIAM PARK NIGHT We queued an hour for the new ride and then rode the lazy river and rapids for an hour. Spent an hour on the beach in the wave machines. Still extremely busy but not hot. Could see some children shivering. We left around 11pm and jumped straight into a taxi. KAYAK TOUR Both instructors were lovely. They take photos and videos and send them for free to your email. It's a long way to paddle to the fish farm but it was totally worth it! We saw turtles and about 15 dolphins swimming past us. Truly amazing. You get to snorkel in a cove which was fun, but the water is very choppy. Definitely take water and suncream. PARASCENDING We loved this! You get taken in a little motor boat to the boat in the ocean. You can't take anything with you for safety but it's all kept in lockers. They take photos which you can purchase for €20 afterwards. 10 minutes flying time and get dipped in the ocean on you way back in. It was so much fun. 15 year old son wanted to do this again! PARAGLIDING Amazing. I had the loveliest guy who talked me through everything. You have to wait at the top of the mountain for a while until the wind is in the right direction. Then you have to run (this was so funny) once you take flight you sit back and relax and take in the view. Again, they take photos and videos of you which you can purchase at the end (€45) The team were lovely and always available by WhatsApp if you have any questions. Thankyou so so much. We had an amazing week in Tenerife. We will book with you next time 🥰
