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.

    Got my tickets yesterday. Thanks!

    Tenerife First were so easy to deal with, really nice people and helpful.

    I wouldn't go anywhere else for tickets. We travelled from Playa Paraíso to the Las Américas store to use Tenerife First.

    Matty, keep those videos coming, and I absolutely love it!

    Nicht 08/15 Das Boot war sehr gepflegt. Die Aufteilung, das Platzverhältnis mit den anderen Touristen war sehr gut und nicht beengend. Das Essen( Paella und Hähnchenbrust) war noch warm und sehr lecker. Zudem gab es gekühlte Getränke alkoholisch und alkoholfrei nach Wahl und soviel man mochte. ein tolles Highlight neben den gesehenen Delphinen war das Schwimmen im Meer! Die Reise / das Event ist auf jeden Fall eine Empfehlung.

    Fiat 500 self drive boat Hands down best part of our holiday. We had so much fun. Staff were very informative & the excursion company were very responsive when we checked to see we were in the right place etc. well worth the money and would defiantly do this trip again. I was worried being a larger gal that the boat would feel a bit unsteady but not at all. I would definitely recommend this to anyone going to Tenerife.

    Excellent Customer Service We booked the Teide by night trip through Lorena at the new Las Américas office. Unfortunately the trip was cancelled due to cloudy conditions but Lorena processed our refund straight away with no hassle whatsoever. Hopefully we’ll get to rebook next time we’re back in Tenerife
