Fantastic tours with a fantastic guide

5.00My wife and I took the volcano tour to Teide and had such a great time and were so impressed with Jaime that we booked 2 more tours with him- -one to La Gomera and one to La Laguna and Santa Cruz. All three tours were fantastic. Not only is Jaime a great (and careful) driver on super twisty mountain roads but he is an engaging conversationalist who is highly knowledgeable about Tenerife. Because he knows the islands so well he also was able to give us some breathtaking photo ops and pick some great places for lunch. In multiple decades of traveling he was one of the very best tour guides we ever had — tailoring the tours to our interests!
Unforgettable

5.00Jamie was an amazing tour guide - it was our first time in the Canary Islands and we were overwhelmed about what to do on Tenerife. Jamie made the whole day perfect by showing us the park and protected areas, answering all of our questions, and filling in bits about history of the island along the way - from its geologic formation all the way up to the present day. There wasn't a question we asked he couldn't answer! His recommendations on food were great too - especially the coffee and wine! Highly recommend this tour for anyone who visits the island - you just won't get the same experience trying to see it all on your own!
A great authentic trip, highly recommended

Jamie is fantastic, we were picked up on time and had the most fantastic vehicle to take us around the mountains. Jamie was a fantastic guide, very knowledgeable and no question went unanswered! We all would highly recommend booking a tour, experience or excursion with him Thanks Jamie, see you next time! The Watts Family x

5.00We are very pleased with our trip to the volcanoes with Feel Tenerife. We have had very competent and trained guides. The guide Jaime, showed us very exciting historical places and told us a lot about it. We were able to get to know Tenerife South better and the traditions. It was very exciting. In any case, we recommend Feel Tenerife
An awesome day exploring

5.00We recently visited Tenerife for eight days. On three of those days we booked Feel Tenerife’s tours, one of which was the Secrets of the Volcanoes tour. The tour was amazing and Jaime is an extremely personable and knowledgeable guide. It was a pleasure to spend time with him and “feel” Tenerife through his eyes. The tour was well paced and fascinating and the tour van is comfortable and spacious. Jamie’s tours made our holiday and we would love to return to explore more of this beautiful island.

5.00This was an amazing experience which made our first trip to tenerife very special. Started the day off and was already taken back by the views and the knowledge of our tour guide Jamie. Had an amazing experience and learned a lot about the island and its history. Tried some of the islands cultural drinks and food🐟.
