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.

    Amazing very friendly and polite Amazing, nice boat and managed to see some whales which was well cool, we then stopped for a swim and the sea was full of different fish which was nice to see. The captain was very friendly and funny. The team at Tenerife first excursions was very friendly, would like to say thanks to Daniel and Kim for organising the trip for us will definitely use them again.

    I cannot recommend Tenerife First Excursions more if I tried! Danny, Kim and the entire team are exactly what you are looking for in an excursion business. They are a team they do not just look out for themselves but strive to make sure everything is running like a well oiled machine so that the customer is well taken care of. I have used Dannys company a few times and each time everything I have asked for has been organised to the exact detail. Friendly, organised and just a company that deserves to be up there with the best on the island.I just want to say thank you for everything and I will be back very soon!

    A company that actual cares you have a good time. Rented a car, book the Stargazing and Kayaking to see the dolphins from Daniel. All went smoothly. Two amazing experiences that will last long in the memory. I'll be booking again with Tenerife First.

    Amazing The yacht trip was amazing and totally worth it. Patrick was so friendly from the start and very knowledgable on the dolphins and whales. Patrick provided us with drinks (soft and alcoholic) throughout the trip, as well as preparing lunch. Given the opportunity to jump off the boat and swim at one of the local beaches. Overall very luxurious experience for an amazing price - would definitely recommend
