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.

    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!

    Best experience Cannot recommend this company enough! We were offered great promotions and discounts at the time of booking. We booked a number of activities with Lisa who made sure we had an amazing time in Tenerife. Her activity recommendations have made our trip the best experience so far. I can truly say that the staff are really there for their customers even outside of business hours. We unfortunately lost our tickets for one of the activities and realized it only last minute, Lisa has went above and beyond to get us our tickets outside of business hours and on her day off!! Not many other companies or staff would give such an outstanding service. Would highly recommend booking your activities with Lisa, shes really helpful and really cares for her customers.
