Detailed description

Guided day trip on Tenerife to Masca

The day trip to Tenerife introduces you to four striking regions and sights of Tenerife: El Teide, Icod de los Vinos, Garachico and Masca. On the way you will see the original Tenerife and the diversity of the island. From high mountains it goes to the coast and back through deep valleys. A unique sightseeing program for your holiday on Tenerffa.

You will be picked up by comfortable coach from your accommodation or near your accommodation in the south of the island and the tour takes you via the mountain village of Vilaflor to the famous Teide National Park, which marks the highest point of the Canary Islands and Spain with the volcano of the same name. On the bus tour to Masca you will cross the beautiful, fertile and therefore for the island so important La Orotava valley. Following the route you reach the city of Icod, which is known for a dragon tree of biblical age and for regional specialities. For good wine, among other things. The old town of Icod is also worth seeing and is not without good reason a protected cultural asset. There will be a longer stop for lunch (not included in the price) and for a walk.

Well fortified and refreshed we continue on the day trip Tenerife at the north coast to Garachico. The beautiful city by the sea. In front of it is a rocky island of volcanic origin, Roque de Garachico. Lava flows have shaped the city. Many of the buildings are built of black lava stone, including the large fortified castle on the coast. The final highlight of the bus tour is the pirate village Masca at the northwestern tip of the island. Deep gorges and cliffs characterize the surroundings of the village. The pirates used to have a good view of the sea route between Tenerife and La Gomera at about 750 metres and you will also find this view impressive. At different stops there will be the possibility to take pictures and to look out. Masca is famous for its fantastic views of the neighbouring island of La Gomera.

Mount Teide is wonderful!

Nice visit to Teide, an impressive view. On the other hand, too much driving for the rest of the day. A little disappointed by the Masca valley, but impressed by the Los Gigantes cliffs!

El Teide es marvilloso!

Bonita visita al Teide, una vista impresionante. Por otro lado, demasiado conducir durante el resto del día. Un poco decepcionado por el valle de Masca, pero impresionado por los acantilados de Los Gigantes!

Stunning scenery!

Lots of scenery to take in. Don't expect the timings to be exact as the roads are very narrow and twisty leading to some very creative road blocks! All in all an interesting tour to explore Tenerife.

Great value for money!

We had a brilliant tour with spectacular views and a great guide and driver. Teide, Masca and Garachico was stunningly beautiful. Only critique was when stopping for lunch in Garachico, we weren't pleased about the guided restaurant - the food didn't taste of much. But a lot of the restaurants were closed due to siesta or vacationing, so it was also difficult to find an alternative. But all in all, we were very happy about this fantastic full day trip, which costed us a fairly small amount of money compared to the views, we took with us home.
