TEIDE TOUR

For the Guanches the Teide was a sacred place because they considered it the gate of hell. These aboriginal people inhabited Tenerife before the Spanish conquered the island in 1496.
The lunar scenery of the national park has inspired many film directors who chose it for their scenes. Some especially relevant movies are “Planet of the Apes” of 1968 and “Clash of the Titans” of 2010.

So for the Tenerife sightseeing half day trip to Teide we pick you up close to your accomodation. Pickup is available in the west and south from the area of Los Gigantes to El Medano and in the north from Puerto de la Cruz. we recommend you to check with us the availability of transport from your area before booking.

We start our excursion travelling to Teide passing through the Canarian pine forest, a real beauty of nature. In approximately one hour we reach the plateau at 2200 meters of altitude. Here stands the majestic peak of Teide, the highest mountain in Spain.

During our Tenerife sightseeing we stop in the center of the National Park. In this area we find the most popular location of “Roques de Garcia” where you have free time to have a walk around. Furthermore you can admire the peak of Teide from the bottom and enjoy the magnificent landscape.

In addition people wanting to reach the top of Teide (3555 meters) with the cable car can buy the ticket from us. Make sure to add that in the booking because it is not possible to buy it on the premises. The price is € 40 per adult from 14 years old and 20€ per child from 3 to 13 years old. Children under 3 are not allowed to ascend by cable car due to the risk that high altitude poses to their health. In case the cable car is closed for bad weather conditions on the day of the excursion get in touch with us and we will fully refund the price paid.

Finally, when everyone has fully enjoyed this Tenerife sightseeing, we leave the park. We are back at the starting point about an hour after we left. We take you to the same location where we picked you up.
