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.

    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. 🐠🐟

    Nice, relaxing boat trip Tour was great! Saw dolphins, a sea turtle, and some pilot whales. Also the area for snorkeling was quite nice, not too much to see but still some nice groups of fish.

    very enjoyable trip into the ocean Beautiful trip. The boat captain is a very cool guy, let us get very close to the whales to take pictures without being too intrusive. Wonderful 3 hours.

    Great experience and a very organised company to book with! Really great organised company to book with. They are a little more expensive than any jet ski’s I have done before, I do think it would be nice to have the pictures included in the price rather than charger a further €25 given you can’t take your phones so no opportunity to get your own pictures. Other than that we found the location following the instructions provided, the area where you wait and get your life jackets was clean and the girl was really nice and explained all of the rules to the group. It was a great experience we had so much fun and got the opportunity to swap drivers half way through. I would recommend!!
