Half-day private tour of Teide National Park
Ready to rise above it all? This journey takes you straight from your hotel to Spain's highest peak, where otherworldly vistas and rugged lava fields have earned Teide its UNESCO World Heritage status. After a private pick-up from your accommodation, you'll stop at impressive viewpoints along the way – perfect for capturing photos of the volcanic formations and unique island flora. As local guide Carlos says, “Every layer of Teide's rock tells a story of fire and time. Standing here, you're seeing millions of years of the island's volcanic history unfold before your eyes.” You'll take a breather at Las Canadas del Teide, a massive volcanic basin shaped over centuries of eruptions that feels like you're stepping onto another planet.

You'll wander through immersive exhibits that dive into the island's origins, with guides on hand to share fascinating insights. You'll also find a native flora garden and interactive displays that trace the island's historic altitude zones through the eyes of legendary explorers like Alexander von Humboldt. There's even a cosy café and a shop if you fancy a bite or a keepsake. When you're ready, you'll hop back in the vehicle for a comfortable ride back to your hotel.
