-
- Hotel pick up
Discover the moon-like landscape of Mount Teide followed by a tour of the picturesque Canarian villages on the northwestern coast of Tenerife on this 8-hour full-day trip.
Itinerary
Greet your guide and set off to Teide National Park on an air-conditioned bus. This reservation was declared a World Heritage Site in 2007 by UNESCO.
Upon arrival, discover one of the highest volcanoes in the world on a guided walking tour and discover the surprising rock formations created by the lava oozing out of the Teide. Walk to the feet of the dormant volcano, which stands 3,718 meters tall, making it the highest summit in Spain. Stroll along its ravines, valleys and narrow passes as you marvel at its fascinating landscape.
Next, drive through Valle de La Orotava to Icod de los Vinos. Here, go for a walk around its historic centre, home to the beautiful San Marcos Church. You will also admire the oldest tree in the Canary Islands: the Drago Milenario. This native sapling measures over 16 meters. Before heading back, you’ll have time to have lunch at your own leisure in Icod. The delicious Canarian food awaits you.
In the afternoon continue the day tour to Garachico, a scenic seaside town. The colourful village is guarded by Roque de Garachico, a small protected roque, situated 300 meters from Garachico. Afterwards, head to Macizo de Teno, where you will explore Masca, one of its little hamlets surrounded by breathtaking natural landscape.
From Masca, you’ll return to your hotel.
