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.

    Non pushy and experienced. Patricia was fantastic, we asked for a whale watching at short notice and Patricia rang around a few companies putting in the work to find one that was suitable and available for us. Great trip and highly recommend Tenerife 1st.

    Echt een aanrader. Een prachtige ervaring. Het duurt drie uur, eerst gingen we de zee in en zagen al meteen een paar dolfijnen die met ons mee zwommen. Daarna de walvissen gezien. Wel op afstand, want die lagen te slapen. Helaas konden we de schildpad die in een net verwikkeld was niet redden. De bemanning had wel zijn best gedaan. Een pluim voor deze geweldige jongens.

    Wow, what an experience Allan & I had today. Spoke to Sarah about my first dive and she booked our dive with an excellent company. Great instructors, very helpful and gave us lots of confidence. We’ve paid for photos and video, can’t wait to see them. Thank you again Sarah. Highly recommend Tenerife First Excursions. 🐠🐟

    Quad biking with Daniel Daniel was a great tour guide, as soon as he picked us up he was full of energy and made me and my boyfriend so comfortable with him. We had the best experience thanks to Daniel and his other colleague I don’t remember his name. We would 100% do this again when we come back to Tenerife and I’ve already recommended quad biking to many of friends since being back! Thank you Daniel for being amazing to us. Can’t wait to do it again.
