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.

    Tenerife First Excursions we will be back!! It was always our plan to purchase from Tenerife First Excursions after watching The Craicmaster since he very first started on YouTube. We popped down to Los Cris and we’re seen to by the lovely Sarah who done us a fab deal on 2 excursions. We left a deposit and came back today to pay the rest and to our surprise, look who we bumped into. The big man himself and not forgetting lovely Matty, safe to say this made our day and what a lovely genuine guy he is and all the staff are fab. We had a great chat and banter with everyone. Thank you everyone, it was great to meet you all!!! I would definitely recommend taking the yacht tried, not overcrowded and staff on board were amazing ..

    Excellent customer service would definitely recommend . We booked 3 excursions with Kim who was lovely and very helpful.

    We booked a helicopter ride that was amazing best thing I have ever done well worth it . On the morning that we was due to go we was unable to get a taxi as all held up due to a accident on the motorway called up and mattie answered and offer to come and collect us and take us there so we didn’t missed ……… excellent customer service.

    We also did Siam park and a boat trip which both was really good and at a really good price

    Will definitely be back to book again when next on the island

    Great service from Lisa. Booked two trips today with Lisa Fay, and what a great service she offered. Nothing was too much for her. I booked a private charter for the family and monkey park all done within 10 minutes. She even waited while the boss signed off on them ( the wife). Would highly recommend Lisa and the company for any excursions. Five Star service

    Excellent, stress free! First visit to tenerife and was keen to do some of the excursions, walked straight into the shop and was helped by the wonderful kim. Gave us multiple choices as to excursions and what they involve. Kim wasn’t pushy and catered to our needs, booked the catarmaran, jet ski, siam park, and sunset quad tour. All excursions were so easy to access and stress free, extremely enjoyable. Would highly recommend to anyone coming to tenerife to visit here for any of excursions or advice.Thanks again Kim!
