Description

On this tour you will be guided up towards majestic Teide via the highest municipal capital in Spain, Vilaflor where here we will make our first stop.

 Onwards through the tall pine forest we will go until we reach the cauldron of Las Cañadas at the heart of Teide National Park with its amazing landscapes, colours and geographical history.

 A short stop at the Roque de Garcia will give us great opportunity for panoramic photos of Teide en route to the Orotava valley where we will drop down to the north coast of Tenerife and the town of Icod de Los Vinos, famous for the “Drago Tree” an icon of canarian culture and endurance. 

 Here we will meander to Garachico an important market town founded over 500 years ago becoming a key trading port for the island, with natural rock pools, great views and excellent examples of traditional canarian food, here we will pause to eat (not included) recommending a restaurant for you to join us or you can take some time to wonder around the many sights and shops.

 Once recharged we start the journey back home with stops on the way by a mountain pass over deep ravines and tall peaks to one of the most remote yet significant villages in all of the canaries, Masca.

 Truly spectacular scenery for your to enjoy and views of La Gomera and with luck La Palma you´ll appreciate why the small number of residents (around 100) make this difficult to access village, even by road, home.

The right to refuse admission to the cable car is permitted at the discretion of the staff 

The cable car is not permitted to be used by those with cardiovascular issues, pregnant women nor children under 3 years of age due to the risk of damage to their health due to the altitude.

Current regulations state that people with physical or motor disabilities are not permitted to use the cable car due to the risks in the event of evacuation.

It is important to bear in mind that in the event of the cable car ceasing to operate for unexpected technical reasons, those at the top station would need to descend by foot down a steep mountain path.

Large suitcases or bags are not allowed.

Pets are not allowed, except for guide and therapy dogs.

The time at the top station is limited to one hour (otherwise the bus may leave without you and a taxi would cost you about 150€)
