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 night underneath the stars We had a great night with Killian and the team and could see some fantastic objects through the scope. Besides the explanations the team also took good care of us with drinks (cava for sunset, hot chocolate to warm up after standing in the cold) and professional pictures which were included in the tour price. All in all a wonderful experience which I can only recommend.

    Tenerife mejor que ver las ballenas Tenerife es único. Si no tuviera la vida echa en otra parte, aquí me venía a vivir. Y la gente estupenda, simpática, amables abiertos. Las ballenas bueno fue una experiencia de tres horas, las vimos a lo lejos, pero mo vimos nada más. Te Dan una pulga de bocadillo y una vbebida al empezar y casi al acabar.

    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!
