Teide, Icod, Garachico & Masca

Discover Tenerife’s most breathtaking landscapes in one unforgettable day. From volcanic craters to historic villages and iconic natural landmarks, this tour brings the island’s highlights to life.

Description

At the appointed time, we’ll depart from southern Tenerife and travel across the island to the spectacular Cañadas del Teide National Park. Here, you’ll be amazed by volcanic, almost lunar landscapes surrounding Spain’s highest peak: Mount Teide, rising 3,718 meters above sea level. Along the way, we’ll admire the famous natural rock formations of Roques de García—famously featured on old 1,000 peseta notes.

 

The tour continues through the Santiago del Teide municipality toward Masca. This mountainous village is full of legends about pirates who supposedly hid treasure in the surrounding ravines. Next, we visit the charming town of Garachico, known for its volcanic natural pools and beautifully preserved Canarian architecture.

You’ll then have free time for lunch at your own expense in the area. Afterward, we head to the nearby Icod de los Vinos to see the iconic Millennial Dragon Tree, a botanical symbol of Tenerife steeped in history and legend.

Finally, we return to southern Tenerife, completing a full-day excursion of approximately 8–9 hours.

    RECOMMENDED 100% ☀️☀️ I recommend booking your excursions in Tenerife using First Excursions, biggest reason why is that they DO NOT rip you off, as many other Excursion sites will. It is a very fast and easy method they use to book said excursions as they have all the best contacts, meaning you will not waste your time booking. I booked 1 hour Jet Ski, Siam park and Loro Parque, Quad Bikes and Opera 60, which took no longer than 30 minutes. Id like to commend Lisa Fay at Tenerife First Excursions as not only was she a very experienced and efficient person in booing but went out her way to give me good places to visit in Tenerife which i sure am. 🤩🤩🤩

    Amazing! Bucket list experience! Do it! Booked our trip with Mark at Tenerife First Excursions, got quote initially before we booked it, got another quote further up the front was a lot more expensive. Went back to mark who then knocked a further discount off as we booked another trip along with this one. Mark was great, not pushy at all, great down to earth guy and will Definitely book through him in the future. The buggy trip was fantastic, thought I might have been scared going through the mountains but felt very safe, plenty of guides out with you on the trip. Well Worth the money! Views are amazing! Thank you !
