Much more than the resorts that made it famous, Tenerife is by far one of the most versatile places you can visit.

 

You have the lush forests and stunning cliffs of the north, and an hour drive away you’ll find the sun-soaked coastline of the south! And as if that’s not contrasting enough, above all that is mount Teide with it’s moon-like landscapes, standing at 3,715 meters above sea level – it’s one of Spain’s most beautiful natural parks and third highest volcano in the world.

 

The waters surrounding the island are also a hotspot for marine life, with many species of turtles, whales and dolphins using them as their permanent home or yearly stop during their migrations around the globe. On this trip, we will go on an eco-whale watching tour and see them where they belong – in the wild!

 

And whether you’ve just finished a whale watching tour, or another picture-perfect hike: let’s try some Canarian food or stroll through some charming old towns!

Tour Plan

Day 1 – Welcome to Tenerife!

Welcome to Tenerife

Let’s try to meet until 5PM at the accommodation (details will follow after booking). Arrivals day will mostly be for walking around town, getting to know each other and checking in. While having our first dinner together, we will talk about the next couple of days.

Airport

You will most likely land at Tenerife South Airport (TFS), since international flights only land there.
If you have a layover in Spain or catch your flight directly from Mainland Spain you will most likely land at the North Airport (TFN).

Both options work, you can choose your flights accordingly to what suits you best!

NOTE: Since we are working with nature, the following trip plans might change depending on what the weather does.

Day 2 – Mount Teide & La Laguna

Teide National Park

Let’s start the week with a highlight. You will be able to step on the highest mountain of Spain (3715 m) which is also a volcano! We will go up by gondola and enjoy some amazing views from around 3600m.

La Laguna

Afterwards let’s stroll through the historical town of La Laguna. There we will have time for lunch, for some shopping, strolling through the old town and take some pictures.

Evenings are free

Usually on evenings, everybody is free to do what they want. Please feel free to ask for recommendations on where to go tonight!

Day 3 – Anaga Biosphere reserve & beach!

Anaga Mountains

Depending on the weather conditions, we will have various options for different hikes through the Anaga mountains. Whichever we choose, it will surely endup with beautiful views in the end.

Black Sand Beach as a reward.

Finally, comes the best part of the day! Relaxing at the beach. There are lots of Black Sand Beaches in the area, we will choose the best one and spend a relaxing afternoon there!

For lunch, we can either go to a local restaurant or have a picnic!

Day 4 – Coastal hike / Beach + Do what you like!

Playa el Socorro or Natural volcanic pools

Today we will have two options – depending on weather and waves. Either we will enjoy a coastal walk towards a pretty Black Sand Beach or we have a relaxed afternoon at close by natural pools.

Morning or Afternoon Free

Like I have just mentioned, depending on which activity we choose, you will either have the morning or the afternoon off. You will have time to sleep a bit longer, stroll through the city or simply do what you feel like.

Day 5 – Exploring the north and strolling through Masca

Buenavista del Norte

Let’s start the day with a hike above Buenavista del Norte! If we are luck weatherwise, we will be able to see two of Tenerife’s neighboring islands, La Palma and La Gomera. As also Teide in the background. The hike will be around 2 hours, with some steeper parts but manageable for everybody!

Masca

Today’s lunch spot is the famous mountain village of Masca. With a beautiful view, we will try some traditional dishes and the very special Cactus Mojito.

Natural Pools

Last but not least, of course some ocean time! We will check out some natural pools and enjoy the afternoon. There is a village close by where we can have some ice cream, coffee and cake plus – stroll through some souvenir shops.

Day 6 – Heading South!

South

Today it’s time to see the south side of the island. We will start the day with heading down to Costa Adeje to hop on a Whale watching tour with a local company.

Beach Time

To finish off the day, we will head further west to our last spot of today. A local beach where we can jump into the water once again and grab a sunset beer from a lovely viewpoint.

Day 7 – Time to say goodbye!

Time to say goodbye! Today I will help you with the checkout and then it’s time to go separate ways 🙁 At least for now, maybe we will see each other in another trip!

Check-out time is usually around 11-12 AM.

Feel free to enjoy the island life a couple days more and ask us for some insider tips if you want to! There is still a lot to see and definitely worth staying for a bit longer!

Location

Tenerife – as diverse as could be!

Imagine a place that in only an one hour drive, you’ll go from lush forests to an arid, desert-like landscape? Or that you can be enjoying a beach day in the middle of January, only to look up and see a snowy peak over 3700m above you?

That’s Tenerife, a place many visit for decades, and are still finding new things about.

The Canary Islands and their unique cultural identity

While the Canary Islands are part of Spain, Canarians take great pride in their culture which differs significantly from the mainland. You don’t wanna come here looking for Flamenco or Tapas, but for the many Romerias and to try some Canarian food in a Guachinche, for example. Try everything the island’s rich soil grows or, what the ocean surrounding it has to offer – don’t forget to top it off with a barraquito coffee! There’s so much to see also cultural wise, from traditional parties all over the islands to the salto del pastor (shepards leap) or la lucha canaria (Canarian wrestling). The island’s vibrant cultural scene offers countless opportunities for exploration and enjoyment.

A natural wonder in the Atlantic

Like I’ve mentioned earlier, Tenerife is so much more than the resorts it’s known for. Everything from lush forests to drier landscapes, with many reminders of its volcanic activity everywhere you look. Its fauna & flora are (literally) one of a kind, with many species that you can only find here and nowhere else in the world. Speaking of wildlife – it’s also one of Europe’s best destinations for snorkeling, diving and whale-watching, with waters that are home to whales, dolphins, turtles, and many other sea creatures.

When to visit?

Anytime! Given its geographical position, the island is blessed with mild winters and, thanks to the tradewinds, fresher summers as the mainland. Also, it’s a place of many micro-climates, so whenever you’re on one part that’s cloudy or rainy, you’re almost guaranteed to find sunshine on the other side!
