Sunny day, beat the snow and very informative.

Ian_S, Feb 2026

Fortunately I booked a tour of mount Teide on a sunny day, it snowed the day after and there was an earthquake apparently but I didn't notice. That was the day after the tour so we all did well as some tours the day after were cancelled. The tour guide and driver were excellent. I got some good photos and had just enough time for, drinks, a snack and the toilet when the coach parked up. The stops gave us enough time and the coach went a different way on the way back so I got dropped off first. It was very good.

Beautiful views but too long for a half day and for kids on the bus

Rozanna_S, Dec 2024

Beautiful views but they should’ve organised a different tour for the people doing the cable car as we had a long stop dropping and picking them up (not sure if some people were late coming down) but we only had a hour stop out of a 6/7 hour day so too long to be on a bus for kids

Meh…

Allison_S, Jul 2022

I chose this tour because it was a 1 /2 day and what I thought would be a small group tour. It was half a day but a large group which made me uncomfortable in these pandemic times. People were respectful of space, etc. but the size of the group made picture taking and exploring quite difficult throughout. I suppose it’s what you get though when it’s peak tourist time and the agencies are hungry to recover monies lost during pandemic closures. There were two quick stops on the way up and the guide was wonderful and mega intelligent when offering historical and fun facts about the volcano and region in it’s entirety. But I found myself asleep for most of it having to be in the bus for long stretches of time.

Response from Host, Jul 2022

Thank you for your review, The quantity of people on the bus is not related to recuperate money from pandemic, it's always been like that. I always recommend people to contact us in case of planning small group trips, and just paying some extra. Kind regards Eliazar Rodríguez

Mount Tiede

Jenny_R, May 2022

I know its not the companys fault but too high winds and the cable cars werent working so we never got to the top. Gutted 😭😭😭😭

Response from Host, Jun 2022

Hi Jenny as you Said the weather conditions do not depends on the companies... It's the nature and many times cable car does not work because of it. Kind regards Eliazar Rodríguez

Perfect for a quick trip to Teide

MichaelEddison, Feb 2022

I chose this trip as I only wanted to see Teide and most the other trips visited other villages and stopped for lunch etc. This trip was perfect as it was approximately 4.5 hours from Santa Cruz and back again. There was one stop for a toilet break for 15 minutes which was perfect. The bus used was very good and the driver felt very safe. I would recommend checking the likelihood of the cable car being in operation as it wasn't operating in early February because of wind and ice.

Response from Host, Feb 2022

Hi Michael I'm really glad this tour was adapted to your needs. It was a pleasure to organize the tour for you. Kind regards Eliazar Rodriguez

Excellent trip

Jennifer_H, Jan 2022

Interesting terrain, very informative and helpful guide The booking agent did not give us the option of booking the cable car, fortunately the guide was able to do so

Response from Host, Jan 2022

Hi Jennifer I'm glad you have enjoyed the trip and the guide, about the cable car on the description of the trip appear that if you are interest on the cable car, you should let us know. Kind regards. Eliazar Rodriguez

Magic

Daniela_C, Mar 2026

Just magic. The whole departure had gone smoothly. Maria and her colleague were very friendly and helpful. The only thing that bothered me was the dirty window on the bus. Otherwise everything was perfect. Thank you

Todo bien, salvo que se...

Ernesto_V, May 2022

Todo bien, salvo que se hace pesado el trayecto con las paradas para recoger a las personas que contratan la excusión.

Response from Host, May 2022

Mucha gracias por su respuesta, sobre las recogidas es algo que no podemos cambiar ya que no se puede concentrar a todos los clientes en el mismo punto de encuentro. Para la próxima vez, le recomiendo un tour más personalizado con solo 1 parada. Eliazar Rodriguez

Esperienza che sconsiglio

Luana_D, Mar 2022

Nulla da dire alla bravura della guida che parla perfettamente 4 lingue, ma alcune cose andrebbero chiarite prima da chi organizza. Avevamo prenotato il tour per le 8,30 di giovedì con guida in italiano. Mi contatta credo un organizzatore dicendomi che la guida in italiano non è disponibile e che il tour può essere fatto o alle 13,45 di giovedì o venerdì mattina. Concordo con il turno pomeridiano e con la lingua in spagnolo (per poi scoprire che le lingue erano 4, inglese, spagnolo, francese e tedesco. Il bus è arrivato con 20 minuti di ritardo). Mi si chiede se volessi salire anche sulla teleferica e concordo anche quella con pagamento sul bus. Peccato che i sentieri una volta saliti erano chiusi e quindi 37 euro buttati, ma non eravamo state informate riguardo questo inconveniente. Una volta scese dalla teleferica abbiamo aspettato che il bus tornasse con gli altri visitatori. La maggior parte del tempo la si passa su un bus pieno di gente, praticamente serve solo per andare e tornare. Consiglio di fare questa escursione in auto. Unica nota positiva, è la spiegazione della guida, per il resto siamo rimaste molto deluse.

Response from Host, Apr 2022

Hello Luana, for next time I recommend you a tour with 8 people maximum, in this case you will have more freedom. About languages all the companies do in 2 or 3 languages. Kind regards Eliazar Rodriguez

très belle sortie

LaS, Jul 2020

très belle sortie en voiture privée . guide belge et chauffeur espagnol étaient aux petits soins de clients. Paysages varies , l'un plus joli que l'autre . le "canion" tout simplement incroyable ! A refaire une prochaine fois quand le téléfériaue sera à nouveau disponible.

Response from Host, Jul 2020
