Top Tenerife Day Trips - page 2

fantastic from start to finish! loved being able to see and experience so much of the national park and the your guide’s perspective and knowledge was very impressive! the first stop at the little coffee shop in the mountains was so cute and a phenomenal view. i appreciated how many times we actually got off the bus to be able to actually take in the views face to face, rather than just through a window. dinner was exceptional, being that they offered a lot of food and wine (our table didn’t even finish the bottles lol), and complimentary beer when you first walk in :). the stargazing was like no other, with and without the telescope. to the naked eye, because the sky was so clear, the amount of stars one could see was insane. seeing it then up close and through a telescope was breathtaking. getting a view of the moon through the telescope was even more special :’), so do make sure to book when the moon is in a visible phase! the drop offs at the end of the tour did take a little more time than expected, but the entire experience was not defined or impacted by that at all.

This was a wonderful way to see La Gomera. The group today was only small (4 of us + guide), the transport was very comfortable & our guide Basso was excellent. Basso was very knowledgeable as to how the island & its stunning scenery were formed. The different levels of ecological environments were well explained & how the people of La Gomera are endeavouring to maintain it. Lunch wasn’t provided but a stop at a small restaurant in the National Park was on the itinerary. Prices were not expensive & the food was good. You could try some local dishes if you were adventurous. The itinerary was varied & comfort stops had been planned in. The weather was fantastic - clear blue skies so you could see El Hierro, La Palma & Teide on Tenerife clearly. Basso was a little disappointed with it as with it being so good as we couldn’t really see why the environments had developed as they have. We thoroughly enjoyed our snapshot of La Gomera.

Tenerife was new to us and whilst we had the luxury of a half board hotel we wanted to explore! I’ve used Viator so many times on my different holidays and this one did not disappoint. The hill climbs and descend in the coach was hair raising but the tour was fabulous and we learnt so much from our tour guide Maria! A fantastic day!
