Great trip - Great trip to a really fascinating area and highly recommended. Amazing views from the top of the Volcano but very cold. Tip for doing this trip take some warm clothing even in the height of summer it will be cold due to the high altitude. Overarching a well organise and enjoyable trip

Beautiful and interesting - Booked at hotel through VIP tours. An 8 hour day being driven by a fantastic tour guide.
We dove through the area devastated by fires in the summer. Very sad. But the tour took us all the way around Tiede. Showing all the different terrains. From the lush North, through the alien landscape, and the arid south.

Great trip into the national park of Teide - Fantastic tour with different spots to see. Even time for a little hike around Mirador de La Rulata. The guide was providing us with lots of information and they stopped at many important locations. The tour is highly recimmended. Be aware that the ticket for the cable car is not included. You can buy it on your own via internet.

Fantastic views and scenery. - We took a day trip with Canarias.com to Mount Teide National Park with cable car. It was a great trip. Julian our guide was very knowledgeable. The coach takes one route up to Teide Cable Car and another back. We had a 40 minute coffee stop, 2 hours at the cable car and 30 minutes at the stunning Roque de Garcia. You can hike from the cable car top station to the summit but it is an additional cost. The free scenic hike to various view points is worth doing. When we went it was a clear day and we had stunning views.
My only reason for not giving 5/5 is the long pick up time. We were nearly 2 hours picking up from Los Gigantes to Los Christians. However the driver does even things out by dropping of first those who were picked up first.
Trip tip. The coffee stop is popular and busy. If you are a couple one use the toilet whilst the other queues for coffee as both queues are long.

Volcanic landscape - The Teide Natural Park is one of the many beautiful areas that this beautiful island reserves for you.
In particular here you can see a volcanic landscape, with unique colors and where you can also admire a sunset with unique colors.

Good views, stay at the top for 1 hour maximum, if you can - hike up. - The view was really beautiful! Clearly recommended.
For people who are good on their feet, a hiking route is a good substitute for using the cable car.
The time slots are not really adhered to here, which is why it is really crowded.
You quickly notice the thinner air. That's why you should stay up there for a maximum of 1 hour.
By the way, the route to the very top has to be applied for online. The cable car doesn't go all the way there either.
However, since only 200 people are allowed to do this hike per day, you have to submit the official application to climb 2-3 months in advance.

Get a smaller group tour if you can - Was lovely trip up to the stop at the national park visitors centre. Got lots of great photos and guide and driver very good. Felt we could have turned round them but proceeded another 20 mins to stop at a cafe for 45 mins then travel back on ourselves. Then told we were stopping at a roadside to get into smaller buses. They didn't arrive for 20 minutes (standing in a lay-by). Finally got on smaller bus who dropped us off 1km from our hotel!!!
All told 8 hour trip could have been done in 5-6 hours. Would go for a more personal smaller group tour if you can. It was wonderful to see but logistics and time wasting let them down.

Shame - The surroundings are beautiful, but the cable car is expensive. The cheapest ticket is 30 euros per person for the first part. It will be much more expensive, so not fun with a family. It is also very busy, so make sure you are on time.

Badly organized. - The option of taking the cable car to Teide was not available. You would have had to book it separately, at least one day in advance.
