If you are not willing to see anything and do a lot of hours in bus with a guide explaining same things 4 times in each of the language book here 10 to 50 minutes stop each places to take pictures of a tree or a lava pool or mont Teide WITHOUT any real walk around the places and the only information you ll get are the one in the bus. It s not for people willing to get a real grasp of the place… very much deceived about it

Returned from a full day tour of Teide, Icod and Masca. We felt the tour was very rushed and no time to spend in each place. Approx 30minutes each place we visited although it stated when I booked it would be an hour each place. I would have liked the guide to have been a wee bit more informative as hardly any information was given as to the history of each place. In fact had it not been for my husband pointing out and asking me if a particular tree was the Dragon tree then I wouldn’t have seen it. I’m sure it was the Dragon tree but who knows. Same with Mount Teide, I still don’t know where the volcano is as it is all volcanic rock and mountains so unless it has a sign post to tell me then I haven’t a clue. I know I was standing in the caldera but where’s the volcano? Don’t get me wrong I’m glad I went it only meant I had to as google quite a few questions when I returned home. To sum up the day I’d say know what you want to see in each place you visit and good luck if you have the time to do it

All places we have visited were beautiful. Great nature, national park and cities, but our guide wasn’t explaining properly in english what was happening there. He was talking so quietly I couldn’t understand any of his words.

It was our first time on Tenerife and the opportunity to visit Mount Teide in particular was too good to miss. Pick-up near our hotel was fine and the coach very good with an excellent guide and a brilliant driver(more of that later!) First stop was short 30 minutes at a gift shop/café as we started climbing off the coastal area. Served a purpose as a toilet stop as well. We then started moving higher on narrow roads first of all through mist and rain with all sorts of exotic cactus/plants growing from the lava - really weird but fascinating. First thoughts were we are not going to see much of the mountain but were we surprised, All of a sudden we broke out into the surreal world above the clouds. Blue skies(no clouds) and a landscape like a lunar surface with jagged rocks/cliffs Truly spectacular with Mount Teide in the distance showing a true volcanic dominance. It was a short stop at the viewing point for just 30 minutes and given the magnificence of the view you could have done with a longer stay. Returning through the National Park we then set-off towards the far west of the Island to visit the towns ,The roads all full of ultra tight hair pin bends with our driver in a class of his own - never seen such driving skills many times having to reverse the coach on the actual bends as the turning angle was so tight! Bet the brakes are checked daily! The first town was Icod with a short walk through to the centre but to be honest not that memorable. The next stop was Garachica down by the coast for a longer 1 hour 30 min lunch stop. To be honest this was very disappointing virtually just a few places to either eat or have a drink and a waste of time when longer stops could have been made up at Mount Teide. My recommendation is that you take your own Food/drinks via your hotel - more practical. The final stop was the a truly great experience at the mountain village of Masca. The drive up to and beyond was amazing. The number of hair pin bends and sheer steepness of the mountains took your breath away .How a village can exist on the side of a mountain is beyond belief . It is no wonder that the professional cycling teams come here to train at Altitude what an experience.

Trip to Mt Teide and mountain view. The other locations not so interesting, would have preferred more time at Masca.

marcin_r

Full day of attractions. All what we need. Perfect day. Beautiful landscape scenery. Very beautiful road in Masca it was a bit dangerous but we had the best driver in the canaries,Domingo

David_H

A wonderful day, with a knowledgeable guide and courteous driver who earned a well deserved round of applause after returning from Masca! :-)

Masca is amazing and so was Teide National Park. It is a great trip. Start earlier so people are not rushed. I did not like the fact that I was not picked up at my hotel from Marina San Miguel even though I was told I would be when I purchased the ticket and it was written on there that Santa Barbara Golf and Ocean Club pick up was included. I had to pay taxi 23 euroes each way which was more than the trip itself. A day before I got an email that I had to be in Los Cristianos which is far away and that they were giving me 24 hr notice and no refund if I did no show up. Viator needs to know what they are selling to clients. I called the office in Las Vegas and was told that I had to pay taxi to get yo the meeting point but 3 days before pick up was included. I detest being lied to so Viator is now on my not to use list.

Excellent day trip, good value for money. Certainly saw the island and our guide was good. Lunch was mediocre to be kind.

It was a lovely day out but disappointing that we stayed for only 30 mins at Teide, Icod and Masca, not the hour advertised. The 49 min stop fit souvenirs wasted time. That said, the views were wonderful, Garachico was very pretty & good to have the full hour there. I suggest missing out Icid & the souvenir shop & spending longer at Teide & Masca.
