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.

    Amazing Service from Lisafay at Tenerife First Excursions! We had such a fantastic experience booking our trips through Lisafay at Tenerife First Excursions. From start to finish, she was warm, welcoming, and incredibly helpful. We booked several activities including Siam Park, a magical stargazing experience, and the Freebird Catamaran trip – and every single one was spot on.Lisafay really knows her stuff – she gave us honest, tailored advice based on what we were looking for, and her recommendations made a huge difference to our holiday. Nothing was too much trouble, and she made the whole process completely stress-free. Everything was clearly explained, professionally handled, and her friendly attitude made it a pleasure to deal with her.If you’re in Tenerife and want to book unforgettable excursions with someone you can truly trust, go and see Lisafay at Tenerife First Excursions. She genuinely cares, and it shows. Thanks again, Lisafay – you made our holiday extra special!

    !!!Merece la pena!!! Hemos pasado unas horas magníficas hoy 5/10/21 en esta excursión de avistamiento de ballenas y delfines.!Que gran conducción de Xabi.Nos permitió "sentir" ese balanceo grato y el juego de ver las olas q se hacían más grandes a nuestro paso.Era la sensación perfecta para sentirte en vacaciones.Aunque la excursión durara 3 horas.Todo estaba preparado con calma.Y el con su actitud,su información precisa,entretenida,nos ayudaba más a vivir esta sensación.Capte q el único barco cercano...cuando llegamos a la zona de familias de ballenas...que apagó hasta el motor,fue el nuestro.Eso hizo q al poco se dejaran ver con más frecuencia las ballenas.!Genial!Nos encantó la calma de la excursión.La mayoría del grupo se lanzó al agua...y regresaron con calma para comer lo que nos ofrecían como Tour(oportuno,sencillo y sandwiches sabrosos).Pudimos navegar ratos y a la par sentir que el tiempo pasaba con calma!! Repetiremos con familia q vive en Bélgica a fines de Abril ...y no pudieron esta vez,por la inquietud de erupción Volcan de La Palma.GRACIAS.Ximena y Luis
