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.

    I contacted Tenerife First Excursions via watsapp and got a response very quickly from Sue ! I was sent a list of prices for karting and was offered to be picked up . As soon as I made the payment the invoice was sent immediately . Once we arrived at the venue my son was able to go straight on the karts and it's all very well arranged ! I'm really happy with the service I received and will definitely use the company again . Thank you !

    A beautiful experience! My family and I enjoyed watching amazing sea creatures , dolphins approaching our boat, a turtle, small and big whales ...The lady in command, Isabel, is a fantastic host, told us facts about whales and dolphins, served refreshments and snacks when stopping for a splash in the sea. She's very confident and friendly. Excellent customer service from Sahar and Daniel. Can't wait to try more esxcursions. Muchas gracias X
