Super Tour

It was a lovely tour with a nice guide. Unfortunately, the cable car didn't run because of the wind. Nevertheless, it was a great experience!

Mega Tour!

The Teide tour was simply incredible. The landscape is damn impressive and the cable car ride was amazing. Our guide was super informative and the organisation went like clockwork. A must if you are in Tenerife! Warning: fear of heights could be a problem.

Mega Tour!

Der Teide Tour war einfach unglaublich. Die Landschaft ist verdammt beeindruckend und die Fahrt mit der Seilbahn war der Hammer. Unser Guide war super informativ und die Organisation lief wie am Schnürchen. Ein Muss, wenn man in Teneriffa ist! Achtung: Höhenangst könnte ein Problem sein.

Not bad, but the price is steep!

The Teide excursion was pretty cool on the whole. The landscape is really impressive - those volcanoes and lava fields are a sight to behold! The tour was well organised, the guide was professional and informative. 🚍 The cable car ride was really fun, but it's a shame that you can't get up to the crater without a permit. Warning: not suitable for people with heart problems! The only downside: the price is a bit steep, especially if you are travelling alone. Nevertheless, a tour worth recommending to experience the beauty of Tenerife. 🌋

Nicht schlecht, aber der Preis ist happig!

Der Teide-Ausflug war im Großen und Ganzen ziemlich cool. Die Landschaft ist echt beeindruckend – diese Vulkane und Lavafelder sind ein Anblick! Die Tour war gut organisiert, der Guide war professionell und informativ. 🚍

Die Fahrt mit der Seilbahn hat echt Spaß gemacht, aber es ist schade, dass man ohne Genehmigung nicht zum Krater hochkommt. Achtung: Für Menschen mit Herzproblemen nicht geeignet!

Einziger Nachteil: Der Preis ist etwas happig, besonders wenn man alleine reist. Trotzdem eine empfehlenswerte Tour, um die Schönheit von Teneriffa zu erleben. 🌋

Teide fun

The Teide tour was an insightful experience, offering breathtaking views from the cable car. Our guide was knowledgeable, making the journey through the Canary Island pine forests enriching. However, the tour could be lengthy if picked up from Santa Cruz. The lack of a permit to access the crater was a slight disappointment, but overall, a worthwhile adventure to discover Tenerife's volcanic splendor.
