“Excellent tour & guide. Great views from the top, only questionable thing is the €1 toilet at café even though we already cake & coffee so wee bit of a tourist trap. Apart from that 10/10.”
Tenerife Teide sunset and stargazing safari with dinner, cava toast, and x4 telescope views plus free star photos.
“Amazing experience and so well organised. We all absolutely loved it and all the Night Sky guides were so knowledgeable and made the whole evening WOW!!! Never thought I would see what I saw with the naked eye. Also what a sunset and food was great too. You must try this”
A full-day loop from south Tenerife to Teide, Icod de los Vinos, Garachico, and Masca, with Mt Teide viewpoints and pickup.
“Christof the guide was brilliant, with all his knowledge of the Island and his language skills (speaking five languages!). Also the driver was brilliant too, driving on those roads obviously takes a lot of concentration. A good trip if you want to see quite a bit in one day. A long day though, with an early start too. The lunch stop was fine and cheap, but if I was doing it again, I’d find somewhere else to eat. There were a few places in the little lanes that looked nice.”
Sunset over Teide’s clouds, an included dinner at Papillon, then laser-star stories and telescope viewing in Tenerife.
“The stargazing was amazing, crystal clear Milky Way! Dominic was an excellent guide. A must do in Tenerife.”
Sunset above Tenerife clouds, Canarian dinner, then Teide stargazing with telescopes and lasers, plus phone tips. From $48.37.
“Tour guide was nice/informative but overall experience was not worth the price of the tickets. We got the self driving tickets and followed behind. The drive up was pretty straightforward since there’s basically one road. We stopped at an open lot where they set up telescopes and everyone lined up to look at the planets. I found this to be pretty boring, but to each their own. Just wished there was more, since the only added value of the ticket was the telescope part (we could have driven up ourselves to go stargazing). I wish they included photos with the stars for free to make the tickets more worth it…”
Cable car to La Rambleta, then a guided hike to Teide summit with a crater permit and standout views, for $160 per person.
“Climbing up to the summit and being at the top was breathtaking (not just in a literal sense). We also had a lovely guide Benjamin.”
Teide National Park stargazing with Alessandro and a private 32-inch telescope, plus an optional Night Vision voyage and astro photos.
“It was great! Our family enjoyed everything and also learned a lot. The guide was in no rush and all questions where unanswered. He is very passionate about astronomy. Also he is very kid friendly, giving enough time for me to translate his explanations. We saw with our own eyes another galaxy, a star clusters, an exploded supernova and a dead star. His telescope is unique and self made with a mirror diameter of 1m! This allowed us to see all above. Don't hesitate to book this excursion you will not regret it!”
Ride quads through Teide National Park, climb to 2,400 meters, and chase epic volcano views with guided safety in a small group.
“Amazing experience with very knowledgeable instructors. They were friendly, animated and good fun to be around. The quad bikes were so much fun to drive and much safer than I'd anticipated. I can really recommend this to anyone wanting to see more of the island. We stopped off at a beautiful scenic rest spot and again on the way back. One of the guides took some amazing photos for us on our phones and we purchased the go pro pictures and videos at the end for only €30. Really made my husbands birthday a memorable one.”
Coach tour to Teide National Park from Tenerife hotels, with optional cable car to the summit. Cold, fast day, weather dependent.
“The tour guide (Benjamin) and the driver were fab. Even though the cable car was closed due to wind, they took us to see Teide from other positions and made other stops for photos etc. It was a very enjoyable and informative day.”
Mount Teide sunset and stargazing with hotel pickup, certified guides, and professional telescopes for a cold, unforgettable night.
“The trip was really enjoyable from the car ride with a very knowledgeable driver that would tell us legends about the island of Tenerife which we found super interesting and interactive, moreover he would tell us to look at the views in key moments to take pictures which was perfect. Moreover the sunset was truly spectacular and we felt safe with the guidelines provided by the driver and the guide. And finally our last station, stargazing was truly spectacular and impressive, we learned so much with our guide which was also a very knowledgeable astrophysicist. He would explain in detail everything we are seeing and we saw constellations and learned…”
80 minutes of stargazing in Teide National Park with expert guidance, naked-eye constellation navigation, and telescope views, plus astro photos.
“Such a fun and special experience. My boyfriend and I had a great time.”

“An unforgettable experience! We went on a quad bike trip at sunset in Teide Park with Amélie and her fellow photographer Riko, and it was just magical. Amélie is a passionate and very professional guide, she immediately put us at ease and made us discover incredible landscapes. Riko, on the other hand, was able to capture beautiful moments along the way — thanks to him, we leave with beautiful photo memories! Between thrills, breathtaking nature and friendly Mood, everything was perfect. We recommend 100% this activity to all those who want to live a unique adventure in Tenerife!Auto-translated”
Guided on-road quad tour to Teide from Chío with viewpoints, photo stops, and a Teide summit sunset, plus water and a drink.
“Would I recommend it? Absolutely. It's one of those experiences that reminds you how diverse Tenerife is—not just the beaches and resorts, but also the wild, volcanic, and beautiful places that are truly worth seeing. The guides really know their stuff, and everything went safely and as planned. If I had to do it again, I'd choose the sunset (or early morning) tour, when the lighting is at its best. The best attraction and truly worth participating in.”

“Great value for money, thank goodness we followed advice on warm clothing. 30 degrees at hotel, 7 degrees and strong winds at cable car station. Take food as nothing guaranteed up the mountain. There is a cafe but not well stocked as very busy. Brilliant experience and the Astrophysicist was an excellent guide.”
Every sort of day out, and the best-rated of each.
