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.

    Memories for a lifetime with Night Skies Tenerife Night Skies Tenerife gave us the most amazing experience on Tenerife! You get so much more with this tour than you’d think from the Trip Advisor explanation - least of not is the energy of Craig and the knowledge of Kieran. Between dinner and star gazing we saw an amazing sunset over La Palma from the Corona forest, complete with Cava and photographs by Craig. Craig helped us learn all about the island on the way to the sunset spot and to the star gazing spot, which my husband and I loved. Once we arrived for star gazing, Kieran helped us learn all about our solar system, the life cycle of stars, and the constellations while allowing us to see what he was teaching through the microscope (we even got to see two deep space galaxies!)Do not miss this experience when you’re on the island, but do specifically book Night Skies. Their service and knowledge (including giving you the photos they take for free and not charging for them at the end of the night) cannot be beat.Thank you for adding this amazing experience to our honeymoon Kieran, Craig, and the full night skies crew!
