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.

    Great experience I cannot recommend Kayleigh and Laura enough! They were absolutely amazing from start to finish. Not only did they provide us with the best recommendations for trips that perfectly matched our interests, but they were also incredibly patient throughout the entire process. They gave us all the time we needed to think things over, never rushing or pressuring us into making a decision. Beyond just trip planning, Kayleigh and Laura went above and beyond by offering tips on everything we needed to know during our stay in Tenerife. From advice on taxis and Uber to insights on local prices and car rentals, they truly thought of everything. Their willingness to help made our experience so much smoother and stress-free. If you're planning a trip and want someone who genuinely cares about making your experience the best it can be, Tenerife First Excursions is the perfect choice. We highly recommend it!

    Dan, Kim, Matt & all the gang at Tenerife First Excursions are all absolute heroes. I’ve been visiting Tenerife for many years & used many excursion suppliers but these guys are by far the very best.
    Customer service - including before & after your excursion - is off the charts & 2nd to none. Honest, reliable & professional. One of the only companies I deal with who treat me as not just a customer, but also a good friend.
    Very highly recommended. Thanks guys!

    Booked our trip Night Skies Tenerife, with Danny from Tenerife Excursions, he is located in Pablo Canario in Las Americas. Great guy working hard in these difficult times. Gave us a great deal, that lots of our friends joined us for the night to remember. Well worth every cent. We were looked after really well from start to finish. Get along and book a trip while there are deals to be had in this very difficult time. Xxxx

    Interesting evening surfing our galaxy Make syre you have your phone on half ann hour before your pick up time as they will call you if they are running late.We were in a small group of 6 (there was a bus as well). Very informative guides. Meal was basic but had Cava/soft drink further on at sunset and a small hot chocolate, ironically whilst exploring our Galaxy.With this trip photographs are taken by your guides: of you; the group; sunset and stars. These are available through a link later and included in the cost.It is a late finish don't plan anything for early next day, like us!
