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.

    My girlfriend and I found out about Tenerife First Excursions through tiktok, we walked to the office from Veronica’s and it took 10 minutes.When we got there, the staff were friendly and inviting. The staff are English so there is no language barrier. They ensure when booking you on excursions they are legit and good quality.We were served by Mattie and he was very friendly and eager to help us. He was not pushy and let us take our time to decide, the way he spoke to us and told us straight up about everything was the selling factor for us. We booked JetSkis and a night time quad bike tour, because of purchasing over a certain amount we got free Monkey Park tickets also! Great work to Mattie and the team! We will definitely come back.

    Upcoming holiday sorted out! We booked a sunset buggy trip through WhatsApp for our upcoming holiday in September, we dealt with Laura who managed to sort us out with ease! We’ve seen online sunset trips are booked up until October time and were worried we’d left it too late, but Laura sorted us right out! Fanastic service, very professional. Hopefully we’ll come into the office to sort more excursions when we’re over in September!

    Sunset, stars & moon! Booked from the UK over Facebook with Ross, communication was brilliant and the booking system was very efficient. Great experience would highly recommend. The meal was very basic and not really a 3 course it was just a bread roll, chicken or fish with rice and potatoes then a small portion of a dessert. The kids loved their homemade chicken nuggets though but make sure you request them as soon as you arrive! (Take snacks for younger children).The tour was brilliant and the tour guide really know their stuff! We were so glad we decided to do this trip as it’s something we will remember forever! Thank you Laurie Delisle
