Good overview of Tenerife! The tourguide and bus driver were organized and explained the areas/how long we had at each stop well. I would have enjoyed more time in masca than ~30 min because it is a lovely area. Check to see what time your pickup is before booking - I had a 7 am pickup for a 9 am tour

This tour was amazing. Oscar, our highly skilled driver, navigated the hairpin turns with ease as Chantel, our knowledgeable guide provided details about the area. If you want to explore the quaint villages forgo the arranged stops and coffee breaks and pack your own food and drinks. Stops are short

Antonio was an amazing tour guide and Claudio was one of the best drivers I've ever seen! Pick up was timely and even though we had to change buses everything went smoothly. Tony Antonio gave lots of useful information while speaking in 3 languages! and kept us laughing and engaged the entire time. Claudio had lots of twists and turns, literally, to deal with but he is obviously very experienced and handled everything amazingly. I would definitely recommend this tour.

I thought this trip was good. The guide was entertaining, informative and extremely knowledgeable. The driver clearly knows the mountain roads like the back of his hand. There were a few gasps on the way down from Masca. The only thing I would change is possibly the venue for lunch, it was an average place for a overpriced small chicken dinner. I would have liked less time at the wine tasting and more time at Masca. Myself and my wife enjoyed it all and would happily book with Viator again for our forthcoming holidays.

We LOVED the national park and volcano. It was so cool and like nothing we had ever seen before!! Unfortunately, we had a longer amount of time at our lunch stop than at the volcano. We were only given 45 minutes at the volcano, so we felt rushed and that we couldn't really fully explore because our guide kept talking about lunch the whole time. Would recommend extending the amount of time at Mt. Tiede for future trips.

This is a great trip and good value for money. The views were spectacular and the driving impressive. My only wish would have been for more time off the bus - it was a long day and most of it was spent looking out of the window. Still there was a lot of ground to cover so I am not sure it could all be done in one day. For me Mt Teide was the best part - if I did one thing on Tenerife it would be to go there again.

Can't say enough about this tour. The bus was right on time to pick us up, and they stayed on schedule all day. All the towns we visited on the island were so beautiful and the trip to Masca alone was worth the entire voucher price! Breathtaking!
Review by: kayla.unnerstall, October 2017
The drive to Masca was worth it alone on this tour, but the other towns we gorgeous and picteresque too! This tour was truly amazing. The highlight of our entire Tenerife trip!

The tour was done at a leisurely pace, giving time to take in and photograph the stunning and interesting scenery. The tour guide spoke at least 4 languages, obviously knew his stuff and was very interesting, helpful and friendly.

Outstanding tour. Covered virtually the most interesting sites in Tenerife. Amazingly, Samuel, our guide, narrated in three languages: Spanish, English, and German. The bus was comfortable, and the driver navigated the most narrow of roads with expertise. Excellent value overall.

quite a nice tour to get to know the island, something different than the beach and bars:
Review by: Stefka I, October 2017
Amazing trip. Very knowledgeable guide and amazing driver. Very comfortable coach . The national park El Teide is so extraordinary and surprising. You can see amazing volcano landshaft and very strange plants which can't see everywhere. Than we saw The Drago tree a thousand years old tree. And beautiful coast with natural ocean pool. But Masca i will never forget - the smallest, the most beautiful village in the mountain. There you can try ice cream from cactus and even the cake with cactus. i enjoyed every moment from this trip.

Absolutely fantastic tour from start to finish, the drive to Masca was worth the price on its own. Would recommend this tour to anyone.
Review by: Franca t, August 2017
brilliant tour, our driver Raul is the best in his category as there are some really scary bits had my eyes closed from Masca all the way to the top of the mountain , so be wary: not for the faint hearted_br/_ Excellent also to have a guide on the tour to explain everything we were seeing_br/_ Worth every penny!

I'll preface this by saying I try not to do too many organized tours but the ones I have in the past have always been great, mostly booked with Viator. This tour was through Tenerife Sunshine SL. With that said, 2 of my friends and I took this tour to get to see Teide and get ourselves from the South to the North we had already planned on leaving the tour at the last top in the North. We really did not enjoy this tour for a few reasons. 1 We were given a hotel to be picked up at other than the one we requested no problem but there was no address and we couldn't find it on google. It didn't exist under that name which we found out later. However we were reprimanded for holding up the bus because we were late we had to call the company and take a taxi to another hotel. 2 The tour is given in FIVE languages. So everything bit of information is told 5x. Our guide was less than enthusiastic as well. 3 We were supposed to see the Dragon Tree but didn't and nothing was even mentioned about not going to see it. 4 We had 20 minutes everywhere we went and the stop in Santiago del Teide was only for people to eat at the restaurant which we did not do and no other information was given about the town or what to do/see. So all in all, we were very dissatisfied with the tour. The one good thing was that our driver was very friendly and helpful and we spoke directly with him over the guide. I'm not sure if Viator exclusively uses Tenerife Sunshine SL or if they use several tour companies but this company did not seem to live up to Viator standards.

This tour was fine, but we spent too much time on places that were not of interest to the group and not enough time on others. This tour seemed a little disorganized.
Review by: kannireimann, May 2017
This was an excellent tour. Just remember that this is not exactly for faint-hearted. The views are gorgeous but climbing the roads in Masca was terrifying! After this you know how great it feels to be alive :D Great thanks to our super bus driver Ricardo! _br/_ Though no meals are not included in the price, you don't have to worry about getting hungry. There is a stop at a family restaurant where you can get a nice meal for very reasonable price local produce, tour special menu. All in all, we got to see a lot of beautiful places and thanks to our lovely guide got to know more about Tenerife._br/_ I only wish that we had more time at the stops, especially at Masca valley. Unfortuantely after trying the cactus ice cream and cactus lemonade that our guide recommended, we didn't have any time for looking around in souvenir shops and take in all the gorgeous views.
