Mount Teide
Tenerife Tour - Fantastic Half Day Excursion
The
Mount Teide excursion takes around 4 hours.
We have both morning and afternoon departures.
Vilaflor/Teide/Los Gigantes/Playa Arena/
Taking a different route to many of the Mount
Teide Tour coaches, you travel gently up to the pretty village of Vilaflor , the
highest village in Tenerife. Continuing up the mountain you reach the National
Park of Las Canadas which is an extraordinary sight and could not be more
different to the beaches of the coast.
The park is effectively one huge crater with an
area of approximately 130 square kilometres, in the middle of which rises Mount
Teide to a height of 3.717 meters, the highest peak in Spain. We stop for a
break at the highest restaurant in Spain and if there is time (queues and wind
permitting) you can take the modern cable car up to just below the peak.
Please note it is not very suitable for
wheelchair users at the top, but the journey and views from the cable car on the
way up and down are breathtaking on a clear day. From here we travel on across
the crater and go down through to Los Gigantes with its famous cliffs and lovely
harbour. From here we return to your resort via Playa de Arena along the coast
road.
PLEASE NOTE THAT FOOD IS NOT INCLUDED ON THE
TRIPS. However there are plenty of opportunities for stopping and refreshment.
