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.

    Fabulous We had the best afternoon after Ross in the Los Cristianos branch persuaded us to take the 3 hour all inclusive yacht charter to see the whales and dolphins. The skipper was really informative and friendly and made the whole afternoon a great experience! We saw some pilot whales really close to us in the water which was a great bonus! Thanks Ross for recommending this it was well worth it!

    “We’ve absolutely loved it” We booked around 4 excursions through Tenerife first. They was super quick at replying via their WhatsApp and every single excursion went off without a hitch. All times, locations, QR Codes, Bus rides it was all sorted through Tenerife first. The process has been very straight forward and hassle free and when you’re on holiday that’s exactly what you want. We also did a Stargazing small group excursion which was lead by Ben Simington. We done all the main attractions in Tenerife and can honestly say this was the highlight of our Holiday. Ben ensured we was catered for with dietary requirements and his knowledge on astronomy and Tenerife in general is second to none, a fantastic evening/night we even got to see Saturn with its Ring! We also done a dolphin and whale boat trip with Danny, again very informative on the ocean and was a brilliant skipper. We wholeheartedly recommend both Tenerife First, Ben and Danny to anyone who heads to Tenerife and we will for sure be using again in the future! Thank you Tenerife First for adding to our holiday experience! “we’ve absolutely loved it!” ♥️

    Kim was Amazing - would highly recommend you book through Kim at TFE! Where do I start! Kim was absolutely amazing. Upon arriving at the office we were made to feel very welcome. From the go we knew we had made the right choice booking with TFE. There was no pressure, all options were given to us and we were enabled to make the best decisions based of Kim’s knowledge and information of excursions on the island. We booked Siam Park VIP, a sunset boat cruise and the jet skis. Unfortunately a family member fell poorly in the day of the boat trip and we couldn’t make it - Kim was very kind and helped us rearrange same day no fussing. All 3 excursions were amazing and from start to finish Kim was a great help! When we come back, this will be our first stop on the island as we know Kim will take care of everything we need to make our time as special and enjoyable as possible! Thanks again Kim!
