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.

    Best boat experience in Tenerife The boat excursion was amazing and the boat itself is very luxurious. The host for the tour is fantastic and very flamboyant which makes the experience even better and a great laugh. He goes above and beyond to make a the best experience and points out every opportunity to spot dolphins and whales which we did (which isn’t guaranteed). We stopped off at La Caleta for a decent time to jump in the sea, cool down and go snorkelling. The food during this stop is great and drinks are provided throughout the excursion. Will definitely be doing this again!

    SUNSET View and sunset was amazing! Nice and smooth quad bike drive up the mountain with multiple stops to talk about the mountain and the history of eruptions. Photographer took 500+ photos of everyone for all to download. Was the best experience of my life. If you get the chance do it!
