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.

    A company that actual cares you have a good time. Rented a car, book the Stargazing and Kayaking to see the dolphins from Daniel. All went smoothly. Two amazing experiences that will last long in the memory. I'll be booking again with Tenerife First.

    Wonderful time Mattie was amazing he managed to fit me and my wife in a day before, kept us up to date when the booking had to be cancelled due to bad weather conditions and slot us in again the next day. On the day of the quad bikes the staff there were very nice and spoke English which helped! The excursions itself was a very good experience and very informative. We really enjoyed the off road part of it. Also got mini pizzas at the end of it which was really nice. Thank you to everyone at Tenerife First Excursions!!

    3h whale watching excursion with pick up from Los Cristianos.Unfortunately, my wife was taken ill the morning of our trip, and at very short notice we had to cancel. Rescheduling I thought would be almost impossible at such short notice, so I understood/expected we would lose the money paid out for the trip, or so I thought…. I would like to say a massive thank you to Sahar, who is an absolute star, and after much effort on her part actually managed to rearrange the trip for later in the week. We really appreciate Sahar’s help, total respect.The whale watching trip was fun and amazing, many a spotted dolphin and pilot whale were seen. All in all, a very professional service from start to finish. My thanks to everyone involved.

    My girlfriend and I found out about Tenerife First Excursions through tiktok, we walked to the office from Veronica’s and it took 10 minutes.When we got there, the staff were friendly and inviting. The staff are English so there is no language barrier. They ensure when booking you on excursions they are legit and good quality.We were served by Mattie and he was very friendly and eager to help us. He was not pushy and let us take our time to decide, the way he spoke to us and told us straight up about everything was the selling factor for us. We booked JetSkis and a night time quad bike tour, because of purchasing over a certain amount we got free Monkey Park tickets also! Great work to Mattie and the team! We will definitely come back.

    Tenerife First Excursions is First for a Reason! This is the ONLY company to go with if you are planning excursions in Tenerife as they put customers first! 👏 I booked the TEIDE+ICOD+GARACHICO tour to better know Tenerife and the customer service I received here from Kim and Kayleigh was exemplary!!! 👏They made sure I knew where I was going and even arranged a ride for me to the stop to catch the bus. Communication was excellent especially when I ran into a problem with the guide from Island tours that was leading this bus tour. The scenery was breathtaking so don’t miss out on what this volcanic island has to offer with Tenerife First Excursions!
