Detailed description

Explore the island of Tenerife on the "Discover Tenerife" trip around the island

The exciting trip around the island of Tenerife with a professional tour guide starts in the south of the island with the pick up at or near your hotel. Visit the most popular and most impressive sights of Tenerife on the trip around the island in just one day! The tour initially takes you from the starting point in the south along the west coast up to the top of Los Gigantes. This imposing cliff reaches heights of between 300 and 600 metres. There will be a photo stop here so that you can admire these towering walls of lava and take some photos. Learn more about the history, the life and the people of Tenerife from the professional tour guide during the trip around the island. Mount Teide forms the backdrop to all of this.

The next experience awaits you at the huge dragon tree "El Drago" at Icod de los Vinos. This impressive plant was declared a national monument over 100 years ago, in 1917. This proud tree is unique in the world. It stands 18 metres tall and its trunk has a circumference of 20 meters at the bottom, which make this tree an extraordinary landmark of the island. Scientists estimate that the tree is more than 400 years old. A botanical park was opened around the dragon tree in 1996, in which various endemic plant species of the island such as cardons, tabaibas, palms and lime trees can be seen.

A remarkable panorama and one of the most beautiful viewpoints on the island is waiting for you in Garachico. Many people consider the pearl in the north to be Tenerife’s most beautiful town. It is a place with a small harbour, a fortified castle, numerous churches, squares and museums. Of course, a stop in the home of the patron saint, St. Candelaria, and a visit to the famous basilica by the sea are not to be missed on the trip around the island of Tenerife. With these stops you will discover how diverse Tenerife is in one day, drive through the different climatic zones with their special features and see the striking contrast between North and South with your own eyes. And Tenerife's most famous mountain rises from the centre of the island - the Pico del Teide. At a height of 3,718 metres, this striking elevation towers above everything else on the island. At the same time, the island’s volcano is the third highest in the world.

Simply great

It was a great experience all round. 9 hours in which you really get to see a lot without being stressed. At the end of the day I think you have to understand and know the whole island. Our guide had an answer to every question. The tour was very relaxed and educational because the information about a certain thing was given directly on the spot. Everything was friendly and polite So all in all a super recommendable tour for everyone

Einfach nur Toll

Es war ein rundum tolles Erlebnis. 9 Std in den man wirklich viel Zu sehen bekommt ohne das man gestresst wird. Am Ende des Tages hat man so denke ich die ganze Insel zu verstehen und zu kennen. Unser Guide hatte auf jede Frage eine Antwort. Die Tour war sehr entspannt und lehrreich da die Informationen zu einer bestimmten Sache direkt an Ort und Stelle bekamen. Alles waren freundlich und höflich Also alles in allem eine super empfehlenswerte Tour für jedermann

Just great!

This trip was well worth it. We can admire all the main attractions of the island and had a great guide who gave us a lot of interesting information about the island and the history. Really great :) Too bad that the holiday is over only ....

Einfach toll!

Dieser Ausflug hat sich wirklich gelohnt. Wir haben alle wichtigsten Sehenswürdigkeiten der Insel bestaunen können & hatten einen tollen Guide, der uns viele interessante Infos zu der Insel & der Geschichte gegeben hat. Wirklich toll :) Schade nur, dass der Urlaub schon vorbei ist....

Super interesting

A super trip through and through. It really looks a lot in one day but feels not stressed. At the end of the day one has to know and understand the feeling the whole island. Super is that the guide really to every question has an answer. The tour is in English only, which we liked especially great. This was all much quieter and more relaxed and you get the information about a certain matter not only when one was 10 minutes away. If someone does not speak English so well, it is still, I think not a problem as the guide speaks many other languages ​​and therefore can undergo great questions. So all in all a super recommended tour :)

Super Interessant

Ein super Ausflug durch und durch. Man sieht wirklich viel an einem Tag aber fuehlt sich dennoch nicht gestresst. Am Ende des Tages hat man das Gefuehl die ganze Insel zu kennen und zu verstehen. Super ist, dass der Guide wirklich auf jede Frage eine Antwort hat. Die Tour ist nur auf Englisch, was uns besonders toll gefallen hat. Dadurch war alles viel ruhiger und entspannter & man hat die Informationen zu einer bestimmten Sache nicht erst bekommen, wenn man schon 10 Minuten davon entfernt war. Falls jemand nicht so gut Englisch spricht ist es denke ich dennoch kein Problem, da der Guide viele weitere Sprachen spricht und deshalb super auf Fragen eingehen kann. Also alles in allem eine super empfehlenswerte Tour :)
