Private nature and culture tour of Teide and northern Tenerife
Overview

Mobile ticket
Ideal for cruise or airplane passengers at the North airport. Tenerife is an island where its particular geology influences everything, so there is nothing better than having an official tour guide and geologist to show you the island.
You will be picked up at the port or airport (or any area of the metropolitan area, at your choice) and from there we will depart to see several of the main places on the island (the list below is just a suggestion). The trip is totally adaptable to your tastes, so once in the car we will decide where to go and what to do, whether to make many stops or few, etc. Always with the professional advice of the guide and driver.

- Fully adaptable tour. You decide what to do and what not to do.

What To Expect
Mirador de Chipeque
Fantastic views of the Orotava Valley, Teide, the Izaña Observatory and the sea of clouds.
Teide National Park
Teide National Park is the most visited in Europe and ninth in the world. We will be in it for several hours and will see examples (in addition to those mentioned below), explained by the guide, of a multitude of geological and natural phenomena. It has the Teide-Pico Viejo stratovolcano which, at 3,718 m, is the highest peak in Spain. It rises 7,500 m above the ocean floor, is considered to be the third tallest volcanic structure in the world and stands in spectacular surroundings. The visual impact of the place is even greater due to the atmospheric conditions that create constantly changing textures and tones in the landscape and a "sea of clouds" that forms a visually stunning backdrop for the mountain. The global importance of Teide is that it is a vivid sample of the geological processes underlying the evolution of the oceanic islands.

Best Way to See Tenerife!

5.00Our driver and guide, Antonio, is a friendly, knowledgeable expert guide for Tenerife. We spent the day with him driving around the island, frequently stoping for pictures and discussing the history, geology, and social aspects of Tenerife. Antonio definitely knows the geology of the four kinds of volcanoes on the island. When you travel with him , you have the opportunity to learn and see almost anything that you request. Since Antonio allows his guests to set the pace and itinerary, you can have an amazing experience with him as you drive around Tenerife.
Amazing experience

5.00We had an amazing day with Antonio. He took us to many beautiful stops in Teide national park, shared his detailed knowledge of the geology and gave us a huge amount of information about Tenerife. He went out of his way to show us many magnificent and stunning views, and was very generous with his time. Thank you so much, Antonio!
Great tour, highly recommended!

5.00We had a great tour with Antonio. He is proactive with communication ahead of time, prompt, friendly, kind, and very knowledgeable. We took his suggestion to start the day early and it was well worth it to beat the crowds in the national park. We saw some beautiful landscapes, learned about the cultural and natural history, had lunch at an authentic local spot, and overall just had a really enjoyable day.

5.00We stayed in Tenerife for a day in November. Antonio picked us up on time at the port and the tour went as described about 7 hours. From Santa Cruz we went straight to Teide National Park, the route up to the volcano was very winding but there were always beautiful landscapes and views. Antonio drove us safely and we learned a lot about Tenerife's culture and geology. We can only recommend the excursion was the best on our Canary Islands cruise. He also took pictures and sent us afterwards. Thank you Antonio 😃
Let's do it again!

5.00My wife and I are genealogy buffs and enjoyed the facts shared by our knowledgeable tour guide and the beautiful sites of the island. It was just us and appreciated the tour guides special attention. Going to mountain top, seeing the lush greenery, the clouds below and the cool temperature, it was no wonder we called the island truly blessed. The personally guided tour made all the difference.
Amazing sites

5.00Excellent tour guide, very helpful and knowledgeable. We travelled from the UK with a little child and Antonio was so kind he made sure he stayed in the car with our little one if he was tired or sleeping so we could quickly pop out of the car to enjoy the view and he took us to all those special spots for capturing the best views. Would surely recommend him.

5.00Great tour to explore Mt Teide park and mostly the north region of Tenerife island. Great views of the park and its varied geological scenery. Was doable in the day that we had from our cruise ship.
If you're lucky enough to be in Tenerife, book a tour with Antonio!

5.00Our cruise switched ports from Lanzarote to Tenerife at the last minute and we were beyond lucky to find Antonio to take us up to El Teide and around the island. From pick up at the port to drop off, everything was perfect. It was misty and cloudy all the way through the forest up to the mountain, and Antonio kept reassuring us that the weather would clear at the top. And he was right - it was stunningly beautiful on the mountain. He stopped any time we wanted for photos, and even emailed me his own pictures after the tour. As we walked around different places in the park, Antonio explained all about the geology in the park along with the flora and fauna. Afterwards, we drove along some beautiful winding roads with wonderful views to Los Silos and Garachico for a lunch stop at a place right on the sea and a walk around the town. One more stop at Icod de los Vinos to see the most popular tree in Tenerife, the Drago Milenario or 1000-year-old dragon tree. All in all, it was a very full day for a very fair price and every minute was wonderful. Thanks Antonio and don't be surprised if we take you up on your offer and return to Tenerife! Susan and Mike
