Island Tour + Masca

from: 49.50 €

In this excursion you will discover the essence of Tenerife in one single day. You will visit places full of culture and history.

This excursion gives you the opportunity to feel the essence of Tenerife, all in one day.

Once the pick-up is finished, you will leave the hotel zone behind, heading to the town called Villa de Candelaria. There you can visit its basilica, inside which is the Virgin of Candelaria, who is the patron saint of the Canary Islands. You will also be surprised by the imposing bronze statues that commemorate the ancient menceyes (Guanche kings) of Tenerife, and constitute a national monument.

We will continue the route to La Laguna, the first city founded in Tenerife after its conquest. This historic jewel was declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 1999. Here we will walk its picturesque streets that overflow with history and culture.

The tour continues to the town of Villa de La Orotava in the north of the island, where you will take a walking tour of the historic artistic old town.  Its streets, full of history and beauty, will take you to La Casa de Los Balcones, one of the most characteristic buildings of La Orotava, which houses an embroidery and costumes centre of the Canary Islands.

We will continue with the visit to Garachico, a seaside town that was partially destroyed by a volcanic eruption in 1706 and later rebuilt. It has a rich architectural heritage from the 16th and 17th centuries, very well preserved, which is why its historic centre was declared a Site of Cultural Interest in 1994. It also was included in 2021 in the list of the MOST BEAUTIFUL TOWNS IN SPAIN.

You will have free time to have your lunch. Why not enjoy some Canarian cuisine by trying one of the menus that we recommend in the restaurants of the Ycoden Daute Isora area.

On the way back to the south, we will pass through Teno Rural Park to visit the picturesque Hamlet of Masca. It offers one of the most beautiful landscapes in Tenerife where nature meets some of the best examples of traditional architecture in the Canary Islands.

  • Altamente recomendable

    Perfecta organización y muy buen servicio de guía y chófer

  • CORRIENDO
    MUCHO PROGRAMA PARA TAN POCO TIEMPO, TODO ERA CORRER Y CORRER, GARACHICO MUY BONITO SEGUN EL PROGRAMA PERO LO UNICO QUE FUIMOS ALLI FUE A COMER. MASCA ESPECTACULAR.

  • Fantastic tour
    We had a wonderful time the guide and driver very good especially getting up mountains in Masca would definitely recommend

  • Un día estupendo

    Genial

  • Not for the faint hearted
    Our guide for this trip was clearly much more comfortable speaking German and Spanish than English and so I feel we missed out on some of the information. I think that travellers should be warned that the road from Masca is very steep and narrow and that the coach has to maneuver very carefully around the bends. One lady on our coach was holding on with both hands and had her eyes shut and if my mother-in-law had been with us she would have been extremely frightened. Our guide recommended a restaurant in Garachico which was dreadful! The food was terrible and the service even worse and while I appreciate it was cheap I would willingly have paid more for a decent restaurant.
