Excellent!!!
Wonderful tour, fantastic driver Bernardo, and excellent guide, who spoke English, Hungarian and German. The guide gave us just perfect amount of information, and everything I was wondering about got covered on this tour. He had really good sense of humour and was very knowledgable. The pick-up was punctual, and nice clean bus with airconditioning and safety belts. So worth every penny! Just loved the experience!

The beautiful part of Tenerife
A good day out. Pick up from our hotel was fine but the transfer to the bus in Los Cristianos was a bit of a wait and quite chaotic as so many tour buses arrived there at once. However our guide and driver were very good and the trip to the volcano and crater was fantastic. I also wouldn’t have missed the trip up the Masca valley for anything, despite the terrifying hair pin bends. Truly another side of Tenerife away from the soulless southern resorts.

Fantastic tour!...
Fantastic tour!
Hector, our guide, was polite, knowledgeable, fun, and extremely professional. Our driver, Jorge, was highly skilled at navigating the hilly terrain. It was a really great experience, visiting multiple attractions and enjoying the spectacular views along the way. Tenerife is a beautiful island, and this tour shows that it has much more to offer beyond its stunning beaches.

Amazing day trip , a must do in Tenerife
One of my favourite tour ! It was spectacular, absolutely amazing places ! Our guide Andrach (or Andrea) was great and friendly . I highly recommend to do this if you don’t have much time on Tenerife. Masca was the highlight of my trip. It looks like a small Machi Pichu with the view of the Ocean behind. I loved it.
