La Gomera
This was an all day long beautiful tour. We were out of the van at a lot of unique, interesting and beautiful stops but even the ride itself, all around the island would have made it worthwhile. The lunch stop was one of two "best meals" we have had in the Canaries this past week. The tour guide Basso was extremely helpful. We also met really nice people on tbe tour. We highly recommend the tour!

A perfect way to explore Teide
We had a wonderful day, visiting a mountain village Masca first. Then there was a stop in a local shop with a lot of free tasting options (liquors, jams...) - the stop should be added to the itinerary on Viator since it was a plus, but we didn't know about it. Then moved towards the main attraction - Teide National Park. Definitely choose a good weather day and book a cable car. It is expensive, but the view is worth it. Just be careful: you have just an hour long you’ll have to look, and the routes on the top are not short, so you should hurry once you get there. Contact the company about the cable car in advance; everything went smoothly and we paid on the bus. Then there were two short stops next to a huge tree and in a café where we bought local biscuits and coffee. There was no advertised stop in Villaflor old town, which is my only small reservation: the itinerary did not match exactly. Overall, we liked the cabrio bus a lot, and our guide Juan spoke good English with a lot of information. I wish there were more cabrio bus tours like that since it is perfect for taking pictures and being more in touch with nature. One last recommendation: choose seats carefully, as the ones in the very front and back remain in the covered part for the whole time, even after the roof comes off.

Great intro to the many sides to Tenerife
Most of the small amount of walking is on the level. The coach was comfortable and the tour guide Ivan gave us loads of info while he switched from English to French to German easily and fluently. All the stops were lovely places. Make sure you have some cash with you for toilet stops! The hair pin bends on part of the journey were very entertaining

Top wine tasting day
Highly recommend booking this wine tour, amazing experience. Lola was an amazing host, driver etc. she made the day memorable and took great pictures which she share with the group. I wasn't a white wine fan before going, but the wine wine we tasted on the day changed my opinion.

An incredible experience,...
An incredible experience, definitely worth doing. The sunset was the most beautiful I’ve ever seen and getting to look at the night sky without light pollution is something I’ll remember forever. It was also really interesting learning about Teide and the landscape around the park. Our guide was really engaging and entertaining, we thoroughly enjoyed it

A Fantastic Day with a Great Guide
We had a fantastic day from start to finish. Our driver and tour guide were both incredibly friendly, informative, and knowledgeable, and they really made the whole experience enjoyable. The tour vehicle was extremely clean, comfortable, and had great air conditioning, which was definitely appreciated. We also really enjoyed having enough time to relax and enjoy lunch without feeling rushed. Overall, it was a well-organized, comfortable, and memorable day. We would absolutely recommend this tour!

Amazing tour, amazing service and great value for money.
Another amazing tour. This is the 2nd year we have used this company, this time with different family members attending. The information provided and tour itinerary is perfect , the views are amazing and the service is second to none. Will be returning next year for the star gazing tour. Thank you again for a great day.

An excellent opportunity for unique stargazing in Tenerife
I had a wonderful experience last night, absolutely loved it, the guide Ozzy was amazing and informative of every single detail, the meal was fantastic, the sunset was unbelievable and the stargazing at the end was so much fun, Ozzy was fantastic during the stargazing with all of the info and facts he provided, and explaining exactly what we were viewing, I would recommend to anyone coming to Tenerife, fantastic overall.

Excellent and informative tour
A brilliant, informative, picturesque day out. Philip, our tour guide, was excellent. He seemlessly switched between English and Dutch throughout the trip and was so informative we learnt a lot about the national park and Tenerife. Plenty of picture opportunities and an hour to explore some of the national park. Would definitely recommend

Great!
We had an incredible stargazing tour in Tenerife! Libby was amazing on the ride up to Teide and made the whole experience fun and enjoyable. The food and sunset were both fantastic, and Kieran was extremely knowledgeable about astronomy. Seeing the stars in the clear night sky was absolutely breathtaking. Highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Tenerife

Spectacular Views at Teide Natl Park, Plus Charming Historic Towns
Had good communication beforehand from our driver/guide Angel, and met him as instructed at clock tower near the cruise terminal. This was a small group of 8 in a large van (6 from same cruise ship). Angel was friendly, funny, chatty and very informative. We went to Mt. Teide first, a wise move to beat the crowds. Just know it's about a 45-min drive up a very curvy but smooth mountain road through the clouds then above clouds and tree line for blue sky views and amazing changes in terrain! Made a few stops at amazing overlooks then 1 hour at the park's coffee shop and museum area. Next another 45-min drive down the mountain by a different route, first to former capital and charming historic town of LaOrotava. We had 45 min free time there, then on to another historic town, LaLagunda near Santa Cruz, for 1 hour of free time. Driver was kind enough to drop us off at cruise shuttle bus to avoid a long walk with heavy packages. Total time 6.5 hr. It was an enjoyable day and great way to see some of the north, south, and central parts of this beautiful island. Note--water and lunch are not included but can be purchased at any of the stops.

Great Way To See The Island
Greg was a fantastic tour guide. We were able see so many things in a relatively short period of time, and all of them were a wonderful experience. He also took us to a remote, local restaurant with traditional fare which was a real treat. Much better than the cruise ship offerings and highly recommended.

Not seeing something you are looking for?
Tenerife has something for everyone, including volcanic landscapes, great beaches, quaint towns, and, not to mention, ample water sports and wildlife-watching opportunities. If you want to get the most out of your time on the island without organizing a boat or car rental, there are plenty of guided Tenerife day trips to pick. Explore panoramic vistas or go stargazing near Mount Teide and the Masca Valley, discover the historic town of La Laguna, or take a ferry trip to the hiking hot spot of La Gomera. Other popular choices include whale- and dolphin-watching adventures, kayaking, and Jet Skiing.
