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.

    Returning customer! A massive thank you to Lindsay who helped book our excursion on the boat. I’ve booked twice within the last month. Once with my beautiful partner and again with close family. Both trips were seamless and a fantastic experience for everyone. The coach was a perfect addition for my mother as it was door to door. The staff were very attentive and friendly. It’s a great day out with sun, sea, sangria and ocean waves. Thanks again Lindsay! M Sammon

    Fab experience, great communication with the guys too!!! Much appreciated ☺️ So so SO good, the captain was fab and very accommodating! Safe trip even though the sea was verryyy choppy (which made us feel abit sick). I just also want to give a MASSIVE thank you to the guys for waiting and great communication on WhatsApp! We were running late due to being delayed on another activity, however the guys were fab at talking and letting us jump on board even when we ran late!! Very much appreciated 🥰 overall, an amazing experience seeing loads of dolphins and the snorkelling was great fun! 10/10 would recommend
