Guide on top! - We had a great day with our Chantal Guide! She was very professional and funny both which makes the day even more friendly. In addition, our Guide has been able to juggle 4 languages which is not a small thing to do, congratulations to her! We recommend this excursion and will come back 😊

Great day out - The north of the island was delightful and we learnt a lot from the tour guide about the island. It was well worth the trip, even if it was a bit of a long day. Hats off to the driver who handled the mountain road like the pro he is!

Great - The trip was great, we have seen everything that was planned. It was in a short time, but at the end we have seen many sights during 8 hours trip. Our guide Chantal was professional speaking 4 languages - the sightseeing was ins english and german at the same time. She made the trip funnier and gave us many information about the sights during the trip. Also I have to mention the driving skills of the bus driver, which were admirable - especially in the narrow roads from Masca.

Great way to see a different Tenerife - Our brilliant guide coped admirably with conducting the commentary in 5 languages, but it did make for a lot of keeping quiet so everyone could hear their version! The first stop on the way to Mt Teide was a bit of a waste, clearly just a sales opportunity, though the toilets were free and clean. The drive through the scenery and next stop at Roques de Garcia however were wonderful, beautiful , dramatic. The towns we visited had some points of interest and were worth seeing and the drive to and from Masca were spectacular and hair raising. It was interesting to see the contrast between the north and south of the island. The trip ran largely to time and the pick up/drop off points were as described.

Big Group - Guide & driver were great but I wasn’t expecting a bus of 50 people & a guide who had to speak in 4 languages. That was not clear in the Viator description & that’s on Viator.

A Serene Landscape Escape - The visit to Mount Teide was the main attraction with a few other stops thrown in. I initially booked it for something to do for the day away from the terrible resort I stayed in.
The tour was a full days attraction; I was in awe of the ruins and mountain views from the beginning of the long scenic drive up into an altitude of approximately 2k metres above sea level and the feeling of like being in an aeroplane, to the main stop Teide Parque Nacional. (Mountains Sedimentos; Islotes de rocas antiguas; Pitones fonollticos; Pico veijo - where lava flows from; Diques fonollticos).
Several pictures, videos, and shameless selfies later, I enjoyed taking in the picturesque mountain views and humbling ambiance from a seat near the edge.
This attraction is worth going on for the main stop alone, however, included was a stop at a village for lunch (not Inc in the price) with a tour and history of some trees in the area from 90 years to a 1000 years old (El Drago Milenairo). Lastly, a stop at a small village gift shop.
The tour guide we had was very knowledgeable and engaging throughout, he was quite descriptive focusing on aspects of mountains like size, shape, colour, textures, and climate. He spoke about unique geological features, and cultural, historical, and symbolic significance, the impact of volcanoes and the heat from the neighbouring African continent.

Miss sold trip - Got pick from bus stop near hotel the trip was disappointing half hour stop at gift shop, half hour stop at mount tedi, half our stop at the old bussell tree as they called it one hour stop at the lava pool, the best was going down in to the riven at Masca when we book the trip we were told that you had two hour stops at all stops, so apart from being miss sold the trip it was not worth the 138 euros we paid for it, so if you’ve got sort of money to east by all means do the trip.

Boring and time-consuming - Boring, not as much informations about surrounding, almost none free time, 4 languages makes it forever, no lunch/swim time

Not advising to pick this tour - 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
