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.

    Couldn’t recommend this group enough. I booked all my excursions with them as a package with a discount rate originally just questioning prices via Instagram. Dan from the group then sent me all his contact details and invoices instantly. We done Buggy’s, Siam, the yacht & night skies for a very good price. Dan in particular was very helpful. Always reachable via text message on WhatsApp at anytime of the day and very professional..Thanks to all the team even Evelyn on the yacht. Free drink’s sandwiches etc.Trish & Wes Dublin IrelandHard rock hotel Tenerife22/09/23 to 2/09/23

    Intimate boat for a family-friendly outing The cruise is on a small, intimate boat so we got up close and personal with the many dolphins that we saw. Once we found a huge pod of dolphins, the captain stopped the boat and we were able to just hang out for awhile as the dolphins frolicked around us. My family and I couldn’t wipe the smiles from our faces if we tried! We also caught sight of a couple of whales which was just such a bonus. The cruise includes a sandwich but this isn’t really needed. I think a small offering of nuts/meats/cheeses would have been fine or even no food at all.

    True yacht experience, cool captain It was not too crowded (10 people); yacht was nice; captain was nice; overall ticket is not too expensive!! Especially compared to those big catamaran yachts where you have 50+ people this was very good! Totally recommend!

    Fantastic After watching Daniel on YouTube we decided that we would book through Tenerife First Excursions and the service and communication was excellent. The tour itself was amazing and the guys really looked after us and were extremely knowledgable about the stars and planets. The photos are included on this trip and there were plenty of wow moments. This is a fantastic trip and we will definitely look at booking another trip through Tenerife First Excursions next time we visit Tenerife.
