Sunset & Stargazing Experience From Teide
Overview

Mobile ticket
Teide National Park is one of the best places to admire the sunset in Tenerife.
In 2013, Teide National Park was declared a Starlight Tourist Destination and
Starlight Reserve by the Starlight Foundation and since then the number of tourists interested in astronomy has grown, making Tenerife a popular destination for astronomers worldwide. The low light pollution inside Teide National Park (declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site) is what makes it the perfect place for stargazing in Tenerife, as here you're almost guaranteed great night sky conditions, which will allow you to observe varios stars and constellations.
Tenerife has a special law in place in order to protect these pristine star-watching conditions inside Teide National Park, by controlling the flight routes and limiting the light pollution inside the park.
At an altitude of 2000 meters, we will discover the constellations designed by our ancestors and their brightest stars.

2.00Tour guide was nice/informative but overall experience was not worth the price of the tickets. We got the self driving tickets and followed behind. The drive up was pretty straightforward since there’s basically one road. We stopped at an open lot where they set up telescopes and everyone lined up to look at the planets. I found this to be pretty boring, but to each their own. Just wished there was more, since the only added value of the ticket was the telescope part (we could have driven up ourselves to go stargazing). I wish they included photos with the stars for free to make the tickets more worth it (instead of charging money). We went in early March and it was cold (40F with winds), so I would recommend bundling up and wearing gloves/scarf/hat.
Wonderful guide, dinner should not be part of the tour

4.00On the positive note, Jean Marc, the astrology person was absolutely amazing! He knew so much and was explaining everything with a lot of enthusiasm! On the negative side ... The dinner ! I don't see the point of including this. It would just be better to start the tour 1h later. The food was not specially good. Also, as there was some wine at the dinner, some people were drunk and kept interrupting the guide which was very annoying. I'd suggest to organise this activity later and tour only. Get warm clothes!! You stay 1h-1h30 outside and it's like 5 degrees
Beautiful trip

3.00It really is a wonderful trip. The tour guide Ozzi was very helpful and enthusiastic. We learned lots about the history of Tenerife, volcanoes and stars. The sunset was just beautiful and star gazing in such an unspoilt area was wonderful. Note: definitely wrap up warm! It’s much colder than you think. I have left 3 stars only because: - the meal was disappointing - they advertise vegan options but the restaurant didn’t seem to understand and my desert was a banana - there is a lot of upselling of official photos, prices starting at 40 euros.
