Highlights
  • Los Cristianos - Our Pick Ups are from the South Zone only. We have a few stops at hotels picking up and then Drive straight to our first stop, the restaurant!

  • Guia de Isora - We stop after pick-ups and a short drive, at one of the local Canarian restaurants. Here you have some drinks and get to converse with the other travelers on the trip. It’s a great way to meet new people with a similar interest as you.
    Also, a great chance to use the facilities before entering the national park!

  • Chio Motorhome & Camping Area - After dinner, we head up further into the mountains. We will travel through the most recent lava flows on the island and up into the forest itself. Here we will stop for an amazing sunset from above the sea of clouds. With Views of Mount Teide behind us and the lava fields all around us in the center of the Coronal Forrest make a great spot above the clouds to watch the sunset with a glass of cava! We will also take photos and a sunset time-lapse that we will share with you after your tour FOR FREE!

  • Mirador de las Narices del Teide - From our sunset spot, it’s just a short 15-minute drive to where amongst the pre-historic rock formations we will be waiting with 4 high-powered computerized telescopes and lasers to explore the wonders of the Universe from our own solar system to distant galaxies!
    We will use a mixture of mythology, science, and laser presentations to guide you through the constellations and use Telescopes to enhance the visual extravaganza that appears before your very eyes as it reaches Astronomical Darkness.

Brilliant evening - We had an incredible evening on this tour! Kieran and the team were so knowledgeable & entertaining and the stargazing was quite literally out of this world - getting to see planets and shooting stars (I got very lucky!) through a telescope was amazing! Sunset was beautiful too. We didn’t go for the food option but that looked tasty as well, definitely take the advice to wrap up warm as I’d wished I’d bought an extra layer with me!

The wonder of the night sky & of the Tenerife pine tree - We loved the experience! This is the type of activity that we would do again once we are back here:). Thank you to the entire team and especially to Hans who shared with us his knowledge and fun & interesting facts!

Out of this world viewing experience. - A shared experience with my teenaged sons. Perfect. Enjoyed by all. To see the night sky unfold like being in an IMAX cinema- only seeing is believing. And on a volcanic plain. We will never forget last night seeing Jupiter, Saturn, Andromida. Thank you Craig et al.

Exceptional Experience - Brilliant experience with Kieran, Hans, and the rest of the team - Who were all exceptionally knowledgeable and personable. The night started cloudy and we were unsure we would see the stars. Regrettably, we missed the Sunset, though the guys were very reassuring that they were confident the stars would appear, which they did. We got to view the Moon, Jupiter, and Saturn through a telescope which was an amazing experience, whilst also getting a great view of the Milky Way from Tiede National Park (the highest I have ever stood on Earth). The team thinks of everything. Cava, Juice, Water, and even Hot Chocolate for a small break! I would highly recommend this trip when in Tenerife. Thanks guys!

Great evening - As we have young-ish children (6 and 8) we did the self drive option and met at the stargazing. Comms beforehand were great. Craig and Kieran were very knowledgable and happy to answer any questions and provided an interactive talk about the night sky. The warm jackets and hot chocolate were very welcome as it gets quite chilly. Time with telescopes was very limited as it was a big group - we had the opportunity to look at four things though the telescope, each time at about one minute per person, hence only four stars.
