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.

    Superb people with great knowledge We booked our trip to Tenerife and so followed a few people on social media to get the low down of things to do and places to go and these guys kept popping up so I had to use them for our tours. We stayed in Los Christianos so that was the office we used. I must say I wasn’t disappointed. They look after you at all times. Their knowledge is superb and Mark, Dan, Sarah, Dominika and Patricia are a great bunch of people. Any issues we had (which were few and far between), they helped us to sort it out. Half our our holiday budget was probably spent with these guys and I will use again in future no doubt. A shame Mattie couldn’t pop over for a photo but…….I absolutely love it!!! Collected all business cards so maybe that’ll be a new trend when I get a chance to make a TIK TOK video 🤣🤣🤣🤣 Sure you guys know who I am by now 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 Keep up the good work and I’ll see you guys again soon

    Lovely dolphins and whales :) The boat tour was great we were lucky enough to see a lot of dolphins and pilot whales. The views were amazing. For me was my first experience going into the open water and I discovered myself that I get motion sickness so if you haven’t been into a boat before, I recommend you to get some tablets beforehand just in case. Everything else was amazing and will do try it again in some future.
