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.

    Top trip! De kapitein deed zijn best om de dolfijnen en walvissen te vinden en deze zo lang mogelijk in zicht te houden. Niet vergeten in te smeren, dat gaat erg snel op het water.

    Best Excursion shop in Tenerife Daniel at Tenerife First Excursions is excellent. Top guy who has plenty of time for his customers. We met him in September and booked the Night Star gazing trip tour. A great guy and very professional and knowledgable. He had plenty of time to chat to us. We went to see him again in January and met Sahar and he was so pleased to see us again. So pleased he has opened the new shop in Los Cristianos. The best man who fundraisers so much for the island. He is so very kind in doing so much for Tenerife. Keep up the hard work Daniel see you again in September.

    Tenerife First Excursions we will be back!! It was always our plan to purchase from Tenerife First Excursions after watching The Craicmaster since he very first started on YouTube. We popped down to Los Cris and we’re seen to by the lovely Sarah who done us a fab deal on 2 excursions. We left a deposit and came back today to pay the rest and to our surprise, look who we bumped into. The big man himself and not forgetting lovely Matty, safe to say this made our day and what a lovely genuine guy he is and all the staff are fab. We had a great chat and banter with everyone. Thank you everyone, it was great to meet you all!!! I would definitely recommend taking the yacht tried, not overcrowded and staff on board were amazing ..
