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.

    Lindsey is great Lindsey made hiring a mustang for the day extremely easy. It gives you peace of mind organising through Tenerife first excursions as you know you can trust them and that’s important when dealing with deposits in a foreign country. Had the best day hiring the mustang. Lindsey is extremely knowledgable and helpful!

    Absolutely spot on. We visited Tenerife a couple of months ago and luckily stumbled upon the lovely Kim of Tenerife First Excursions, she was so nice to us with no pressure sales whatsoever. She made us feel like we were her friends rather than her customers which we really appreciated. She was an absolute joy to chat to to she sorted us out with a couple of great activities that's really was the highlight of our holiday. We would definitely pay Kim a visit if we come back to Tenerife again. Thankyou 🙂.
