Detailed itinerary

We will pick you up on the bus at your stop and we will start the route to the Teide National Park making a brief stop in the town of Vilaflor where you can have a coffee or whatever you want, a small town that has a unique charm, partly due to its privileged location, nestled in the highest part of the island and surrounded by pine forests, a step away from Teide, therefore being part of the highest municipality in Spain

Stop 2

Stop at the Roques de García, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, in this place you will enjoy landscapes that will seem from another planet, you will breathe the pure air of the highest peak in Spain, you will walk among the volcanic lava and you will feel tiny when you see the stunning setting. Touring the area is quite a spectacle. The landscape is overwhelming no matter where you look. It is an impressive tour due to the contrast that the island offers us through its different landscapes and colors. Las Cañadas del Teide form a gigantic caldera of about 17 km in diameter on which the Pico del Teide sits, at 3,718 meters, which is the highest in Spain and the third highest volcano in the world. The snow of the peak together with the lava flows that spill down its slopes form a unique combination that you will not tire of admiring. Roques de Garcia and cable car time will be one stop from 90 to 120 minutes

Stop 3

Next we will arrive at the Cable Car, the highest in Spain, where you can ascend to the summit of the Volcano. Mount Teide, considered the most emblematic natural monument of the Canary Archipelago, is, without a doubt, a majestic place and therefore a natural wonder that you will not forget. The ascent to the cable car is optional and not included in the price of the excursion.

Finally, we finish the tour and we will take you back to your hotel going down through the town of Chio, limited by Alcalá in the coastal area and to the north by the town of Tamaimo, belonging to the municipality of Santiago del Teide.
