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.

    Mooie ervaring op zee! We hebben super genoten van dit tripje op zee! We hadden een aangename kapitein, een vriendelijke, rustige persoon. Normaal kan je met een 10-tal mensen op de boot maar wij waren alleen met ons gezin van 5 personen. Een aanrader!

    Fantastic service, down to earth and very easy to book an excursion with. I selected other as I did 4 excursions with Tenerife first excursions. I booked parascending, paragliding, half day teide and stargazing. All excursions were done very professionally, and were breathtaking. Kim and Daniel looked after you and made booking a excursion so easy and effortless. If you ever need an excursion, I 100% highly agree using Tenerife First Excursions and they will make your stay on Tenerife enjoyable and one you will always remember. I wished I could give more than 5 stars as they deserve a 10.

    Arrivé le 18/08 sur l’île de Tenerife et plus aucun moyen de locomotion à louer ! Sauf que j’ai croisé Lisafay lors de ma première promenade à Costa Adeje. Cette ravissante et pétillante femme m’a trouvé une moto pour le lendemain et pour 4 jours. La découverte de l’île a commencé ainsi et je lui en suis très reconnaissant.Bien entendu, je recommande vivement Tenerife First Excursions.Même quand cela devient impossible, c’est possible !!! ❤️
