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.

    Agradable experiencia. Buena experiencia. Tres horas de buen rollo y rato muy agradable. Gui agrada durante la ruta y explica muchas cosas, la mayoría interesantes. El único pero, vimos pocos animales y ,aunque la idea de nuestro guía fue que no era lo principal de la excursión, nos apetecía un montón. Lo mejor, al ser un barco pequeño, que solo podíamos ir cinco personas y fue una ruta que se convirtió en privada y fue un verdadero gustazo.

    Absolutely amazing team, definitely recommend if you’re wanting to go on some excursions or do the water and animal parks while in Tenerife. Stress free go and book with Tenerife First Excursions, they give you all the details pay and then they sort everything out for you from their you just turn up. Had the pleasure of meeting the lovely Kim who was so welcoming and gave us all the information we needed when we told her what we was looking to do. Competitive prices compared to all the others you see and they definitely only work along side the best companies. We booked Jet skiing, Siam park and the monkey park. Even better that Siam park and the monkey park are open tickets so you can use them on whichever day you decide no deciding beforehand. When we’re back in Tenerife (which we will be as it’s our favourite destination) will definitely go back and book with any of the team as they are brilliant. Thank you to all the team but as I say especially Kim who we saw at booking.
