Pleasant Trip - Great way to spend a sunny Saturday morning. Guides did a nice job. Coach was comfortable. Overall a really good experience.

Mount Teide - a must see - A lovely trip with fantastic sights. Fernando the tour guide did a great job, was informative and was clear with instructions. A special thank you to Victor the driver who saved an idiotic tourist like me that came without the right warm clothes on. He gave me his coat and it saved the day.

The mighty Teide... - Teide National Park is really an amazing place to visit with a really stunning landscape! This was definitely the highlight of our winter break in Tenerife. We were collected on time and met our tour guide Enrique, who is a very nice guy and then we started the very interesting drive up into the mountains. I picked this tour as it gives the national park the time it definitely deserves rather than so many other tours which just seem to have a short stop at Teide. We made two stops for about 30 minutes each where we had time to walk around the incredible landscape and take some pictures. Then there was the cable car stop... unfortunately we didn't get tickets with this company as we had thought it would be closed because of the snow as there had been closures, but it was open and we weren't able to get tickets at this late stage so if the cable car is a must for you then get your tickets with the company when you book and in fairness they had emailed us before the trip asking if we wanted to get tickets so no fault on their side. It turned out to be a happy accident for us as after dropping off people for the cable car we were taken along with another couple for more exploration of the far side of the park and some amazing views of the snow covered Teide. We ended up preferring doing this although I'm sure the cable car is fun also. We also had time to stop at a nice place where I had a refreshing beer and the pizza was tasty too! Then we collected the other people from the cable car and we had one more stop where we had some time to explore and take some final pictures before we left the park. Enrique is really an expert with all his knowledge about Teide and the flora and fauna of this landscape and knows the history very well...he is also a funny guy too. The bus driver is also very professional and what a crazy drive it is! I was sure his name is Jose and he is also a very friendly man. We got great views of Los Gigantes on the way back to our hotel also which was a big bonus. I think we might have just gotten lucky to see them with location of someone's hotel drop off, but not sure? One final point I would add is that through a bit of research I decided to wear jeans as I thought in January and with recent snow that it would be cold in the mountains, but it was very warm all day and I would have been fine with shorts and a t-shirt, but maybe that's just me. So thanks very much amigos...we had a brilliant day! The Irish couple.

Beautiful and best experience in Tenerife! - It was beautiful view on the Teide Mountain! It was a long journey when the coach returned, it took us from 8:45-18:06, over 9 hours for the whole journey but it shows 5-7 hours on the activity information.

“Volcanic fun fest….” - I hate to grade humans, because I’m not a perfect person, but our tour guide for the Tiede national park tour was above ,and beyond 100 percent-he works well with the driver ,of the tour bus, and is working a perfectly flawless game plan for fun, education and information-both men made us feel like family, and was always there with answers to our questions-not sure how you find such talent, but glad you do-well done, and excellent full day, thank you much! See you again in the near future amigos!

Brilliant - The tour guide and the driver were excellent, I enjoyed the whole experience, The mountain was beautiful.

Worthwhile excursion - Simply a must if you are in Tenerife Impressive view and outlook from all possible perspectives Great cable car ride good atmosphere All in all good

Special nature and fantastic views - Nice bus tour done which took a full day (morning + afternoon). The guide talked in English and French about the different types of parks and how nature changed during the ride. The Teide park itself is very beautiful and you really have to book the cable car because the view is fantastic.

Go local - Better to book with one of local tour organisers as I ended up not having a ticket for the cablecar to the top, the main point of the trip for me. The tour guide herself was dealing with two languages, Russian (I think) and English. She spent most of her time speaking Russian and very little English. Her accent was very strong and her English quite limited, which didn't make for interesting listening. The tour is the while day, over 8 hours, not 5-7 hours as advertised. The stops are too long. The national park is amazing - well worth visiting.

Too much time on bus rather than on foot and time wasted flogging unused cable car tickets - This tour was not for us for several reasons. Partly our own fault and partly the tour company. Firstly; We were picked up at 09.00 and returned at 16.00. The cable car ticket is advertised as optional which we thought would suit as we didn’t want to do that but instead thought we could use the time to do some walking and explore the area. The tour guide communicated that there was a plan b for those who did not want to utilise the cable car and that we would drive a bit further to an area with more facilities and options for sightseeing. We initially thought this was great however after dropping the cable car participants off, the guide then said he needed to do something for 10 minutes, After 30 minutes of waiting on the bus the guide returned and it transpired that he was selling two of the cable car tickets that we presume belonged to a couple who had failed to show for the morning pick up. This was not acceptable, if you do not turn up you still have to pay for the tour so the company is not out of pocket and the cable car tickets should have been written off. Secondly; The tour involved a lot of sitting on the bus and listening to commentary which was interesting but we felt we would have preferred less driving and more opportunity to get out and walk around. For a 7 hour trip the total time not on the bus was around 90 minutes. On reflection we should of gotten the public bus or hired a car for the day which would of worked out cheaper anyway. On a positive note the guide was apologetic about the wait, was really engaging throughout and happy to answer any questions and provide further information.
