Amazing excursion - I visited Teide during a school trip and it was incredible: a breathtaking view of the entire island, a friendly and multilingual guide. It was an excursion that will stay in the minds of all who go.

Well planned itinery covers lots of attractions - We went to lots of places. It was well paced with stops well planned and not too long a stretch of driving each time. I id start to fell a bit dizzy on the drive down from Masca along winding mountain road but there were amazing views and it was only about 40 mins. Amazing tour to get a view of the cultural and geological attractions of the island.

Stunning scenery and good value - Really good value for money. Our guide Guido worked really hard all day, four languages!, and still kept each section fresh. Breathtaking scenery although I am glad it was Frank driving...

Great views & nature - The Teide, its national park and Masca are worth seeing every year. I have been traveling to Tenerife once a year since 2018 and enjoy being there.

Amazing Tour with Viages Nere Izerdie. - Even if you visit Tenerife for a few days, book a day tour with this company and enjoy the visually stunning beauty of the 'Teide, Masca, Icod and Garachico' tour. If you're lucky enough to have Alexis as your guide and Miguel as your coach driver, you will have a day to remember. Alexis loves his island home, and he will give you some fascinating information about the geography, the geology and flora and fauna. He speaks seven languages perfectly, some no matter where you come from, you will enjoy his live commentary from start to finish. You will fall in love with Tenerife. The helter, skelter, zig zag mountain road drive will leave you with white knuckles and in need of a stiff drink. I would never attempt to drive this 'amazing crazy' road myself, but Miguel was incredible, and we felt safe....most of the time. Miguel has probably driven this countless times. His 3 point turns to take the coach around some impossible bends with sheer drops on either side, he could probably do with his eyes closed. But thankfully, this time he had them open. The price of around 50 euros per person was worth every penny. My advice. Take a spare pair of underpants and knickers with you....just in case👍

Good tour to see some interesting sights - The ride to and from masca was very exciting. Hair pin turns and breathtaking scenery. Guide was good but 3 languages on one tour was not great.

Great trip. Shame weather didn’t allow cable car to operate - Good trip but shame weather prevented cable car operating. Operator (host on the coach) was great describing all parts of the journey up and stopping at some nice places. She was hopeful the cable car would operate at 11am but unfortunately the winds didn’t die down and it was shut for the day. Only negative was the although a refund for the cable car was promised I had to chase and after being offered a discount on another cable car trip (when am I going back to Tenerife?) I firmly rejected this and received a refund to my card.
