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.

    Best company for large groups Thank you to Daniel at Tenerife First Excursions. Daniel arranged for our college students two trips - the Whales and Dolphins and an Island Tour. Daniel had the correct paperwork which we needed for our health and safety records. Trips were having to be rescheduled due to the Weather but Daniel took care of all of this for us. He also helped us with restaurant recommendations and bookings tables for such a large group.

    Thank you so much for helping with our booking! Went on the kalimakat catamaran trip and everything was just perfect from start to finish. Lovely crew, saw plenty of dolphins and turtles! Stopped for a sea swim in a lovely spot and then were served a lovely rice dish with unlimited drinks. Overall a fantastic few hours!

    Fantastic recommendations After seeing them on TikTok, we went to First Excursions to book a Jet Ski experience whilst we were in Tenerife last week. We were welcomed by the lovely LisaFay and we were given a fantastic recommendation. The service we received was brilliant and we were all booked within a few minutes. I will definitely be going to them again for any excursions in the future. For anyone who is interested, we booked a 1hour Double Jet Ski experience with Extreme Skis and it was fantastic! They even took some brilliant photos of us on the ski& had 40+ of the photos airdropped over to my phone for €20.
