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.

    We booked our kayaking experience with Dan and we couldn't be happier with our decision. He gave us all the necessary information about where the kayaking office is and how it's organized. We had an amazing time. Thank you Dan😊

    A great day Whale Watching This turned out to be a great day. The crew were all very sweet , helpful and friendly and we actually got to see 13 whales that day on April 19th, 2023. The boat was large enough where everyone got a seat or a place to watch. We are vegan, and pre-ordered a vegan meal of Paella, and it was tasty. They had a swim session at the endl. All in all, I would highly recommend this tour.

    Great service from Lisa. Booked two trips today with Lisa Fay, and what a great service she offered. Nothing was too much for her. I booked a private charter for the family and monkey park all done within 10 minutes. She even waited while the boss signed off on them ( the wife). Would highly recommend Lisa and the company for any excursions. Five Star service

    Amazing We booked 4 trips with Lisa Fay and she was so helpful! We booked the 3 hour buggy ride up the volcano with tapas and wine tasting. We booked Loro park and Siam park and we also booked the 3 hour Catamaran trip. Lisa was so helpful and informative about all of the trips we had to offer and she also allowed us time to think about what we wanted to do, she gave us leaflets to have a look at so that we could go back the next day and book all of the trips with her. All 4 of the trips were incredible and stress free after booking with Tenerife first excursions. Thankyou very much Lisa.
