We drive on to the next village los Carrizales where we have the opportunity for a short walk. Furthermore, we drive along the winding road over the mountain and arrive on the north side of the island where local agriculture clearly dominates.

Highly recommended full day excursion - A wonderful full day tour in a small group. We have seen and heard a lot - Miguel is a great guide. The highlight was the sunset in Teide National Park. 1,000 thanks for the wonderful day!

Excellent tour - highly recommended - This was definitely the highlight of our trip to Tenerife!
We had a great time in a small group of 6 (plus Chica, the guide’s dog) touring round Masca, Garachico, Icod de los Vinos and Teide national park. The guide was incredibly friendly and informative and flexible and stopped regularly at viewpoints or sights of interest as well as the towns on the tour. Each place was very interesting and we were given plenty of information and time to look around on our own and we had time for lunch in Garachico. The views around Masca and Teide were breathtaking and well worth exploring. The bus was very comfortable and nice and small so great to negotiate the tight, windy roads safely around Masca, we seemed to miss the crowds at Masca and Teide successfully and had a really enjoyable and friendly experience.
We did book a private tour with another company to see some of the towns further north and it was very disappointing and didn’t match up to this trip one iota. Can I suggest that you maybe put on tours to places such as Candelaria, Santa Cruz, San Cristóbal de la Laguna, Puerto de la Cruz and La Orotava - because I would definitely go with you guys!

Wonderful day at Tete national park Tenerife - François, our guide and his little dog chica were a joy to be with for the whole day experience. François provided more information than we asked for which was very nice and was very knowledgeable. I don’t believe there was one question that he could not answer.
The tour of the volcano area and the national park was like being on a different planet, and we quite enjoyed the information provided at the museum.
We were picked up and dropped off right on time and all in all it was a very memorable experience.

Very nice experience! - We have now done various tours with CTT for 3 holidays. We had both Filip and Francois as guides several times. Both gentlemen are fantastic guides and know a lot about the history of the island. They also do their very best to ensure you have a nice day. We really enjoy having such a small group. This means you can understand everything clearly and also ask all your questions about everything you want to know about the beautiful locations. The atmosphere is always great! My mother has difficulty walking and the great thing is that her wheelchair (folded) could also be taken on the bus. She was also taken into account, which was very nice. And then we also had sweet Chica with us on the trip, Francois's dog, what fun that was! We are already looking forward to our next holiday, we will book a tour with this great company again.

One of the best trips we've had - We've just got back from this trip. We were picked up from our hotel by Miguel who was our driver and guide in a beautifully clean and well maintained mini van, there were just 8 of us on the tour so it was very personal and private. Miguel was really knowledgeable and gave us all loads of information as well as answering all our questions! The tour covered so many beautiful sights from Masca, Icod and the dragon tree to beautiful Tiede, and because we were a small group it wasn't rushed and Miguel offered us more time in places if we wanted, it really has been a wonderful day our and we wouldn't hesitate to recommend this day trip, thanks Miguel for a great day

Well worth the money - Great trip. Loved the view of Teide. Our guide gave us plenty of time in each place and he did an excellent job of the driving. Well worth the full day.

Beautiful day - Very nice course, Teide Park and Masca our favorite stops, to do. A very friendly guide Jean François accompanied by his adorable Chica. Very good driver and interesting guide. He picked us up from our hotel and we were 3 couples from 3 different hotels.
At 9:15 am, a very nice day with return around 7 pm.
How lucky to have a visit in French and small group.One star less compared to the comfort of our seats in the vehicle, because we were in the back, little room for legs. For adults, we had to bend and unfold once the seat was folded in front, to get on and off at each stop.
Maybe places to reserve for children or young people... Except for a nice day.

A day in the wake of... - Pleasant excursion in a limited group with Belgian guide Filip who shared all kinds of facts about the region. We put on four pictures but the day flew by. We were tired but satisfied. Top guide!

My handbag was stolen during this trip. - The program of the trip was good, comprehensive and interesting. Pick up time was stop on time. Driver/guide spoke basic English, was very friendly and nice, but did not have sufficient English to provide a “guided tour”. My handbag with all valuables (documents, cash, credit cards) was stolen during this trip. It was stolen at the end of the day during the very brief stop, it was stolen from the vehicle. So, our holidays were completely ruined. I wish the travel company would have provided specific information regarding safety in Tenerife. Police later told us that theft in Tenerife is of epidemic scale. It is done by the “professional” groups. It is not just an episodes case. Tourists are targeted and followed. I did not have this information before the holidays, so I lost my vigilance literally for a few minutes which resulted in horrible consequences. Instead of going to water-park with my son, we were visiting police stations, banks and embassy office. We had to apply for emergency passports in order to travel back home. I really wish I had an information how unsafe Tenerife island is for the tourists before making a decision to go there.
