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.

    Fun filled Kayak & Snorkel excursion!We booked a kayaking tour through Danny at Tenerife First Excursions and it was a brilliant day out! The Kayak instructor was very nice and explained everything so well, and made us all feel so comfortable! It was great fun! We kayaked from los cris out to sea, around the bay and to a lovely cave between los cris and palmar and got to do some snorkeling which was amazing! We saw loads of cool fish and crabs too! Amazing view of Montaña Amarilla on route! Thanks guys, we'll be back to book another trip soon!

    Excellent service, excellent range of excursions and a very friendly, personal, bespoke vibe. Unlike many excursion operators, TFE only sell deals on the best quality tours which they have vetted personally so others might be a couple of Euros cheaper but you are taking the risk of encountering lower standards. You get what you pay for.Dan the amiable Irish owner takes his personal reputation very seriously and his staff are also excellent. They will do you a package deal discount if you book three or more trips. Couldn’t recommend them more.
