Highlights
  • Teide National Park - The Teide National Park is the highest area of

the island of Tenerife (in the Canary Islands) and of Spain. Declared on January 22, 1954 as a National Park, it is the largest and oldest of the national parks of the Canary Islands and the third oldest in Spain. In 2007 it was declared a World Heritage Site by Unesco, and since that year it is considered one of the 12 Treasures of Spain.
In this area is the Teide volcano (in Guanche and originally, Echeyde or Echeide) which with its 3718 meters, is the highest peak in the Canary Islands, Spain and any land emerging from the Atlantic Ocean. It is also the third largest volcano in the world from its base on the ocean floor, only surpassed by Mauna Kea and Mauna Loa in Hawaii. The height of Teide also makes the island of Tenerife the tenth highest island in the world. Next to Teide is the second highest mountain in the Canarian Archipelago, the Pico Viejo with 3135 meters above sea level, both being the only Canary mountains that exceed 3000 meters in altitude.
It is also the most visited national park in Europe and currently the ninth in the world.

  • Casa de Los Balcones - Casa de los Balcones or Casa Fonseca is a house of La Orotava, on the island of Tenerife in the Spanish archipelago of the Canary Islands, characterized by its balconies and interior carved wooden patio. It was built in 1632 (and culminated in 1675).

The facade is three floors, with a balcony on the top and five balconies on the second floor all made of wood. In it there is an outdoor patio with lots of vegetation.

It has a craft complex of openwork of the most important in the Canary Islands. It also has a center for teaching, promotion and dissemination of typical handicrafts so that they are not lost. These activities, teachers, museums and at the same time commercial, are the reason why she is still alive. Its artisan products for sale make thousands of people visit its many departments.

In the house of the balconies is the Handicraft of Eladia Machado, workshop of jigsaw founded in 1932. In its large rooms artisans can be seen performing the typical tasks of the draft, basketry, embroidery, etc. It has become another tourist offer in the north of Tenerife. And it offers a wide variety of typical Canarian products such as openwork, embroidery, ceramics and typical costumes.

  • Mirador de Ortuño - The Ortuño viewpoint is the most popular stop for those who go up or down the Teide National Park along the mountain back of Tenerife,
    It is paradise for photography enthusiasts.
    Views of the sea of clouds in Tenerife
    On the TF-24 road, a few kilometers from the recreational area of Las Lagunetas, in the northeast of the island, the viewpoint appears, surrounded by small pine trees that frame the view. We are 1,610 meters above sea level, so you should expect intense light and very fresh and pure air. And if there are clouds, it doesn’t usually matter, because they often fall below sight and create a white sea on which the island seems to be floating.
  • San Cristobal de La Laguna - La Laguna is a meeting place The pedestrian streets of the center are always full of life, with street musicians and hundreds of bars, restaurants and bars. Beyond visits to its stores, with sumptuous vintage items or avant-garde fashion clothes, it is very comforting to know the churches, mansions and historical buildings of this dazzling ancient city declared a World Heritage Site by Unesco.

Tiede National Park and Volcano Private Tour - Ah must do tour. What a wonderful, colorful and insightful day. Our guide and driver ( Jonnie ) was almost waiting for us with open and welcoming arms. My initial inquiry to the company was returned promptly ( time difference ) Gloma tours and ( Luis ) informed us with things to do and helped us on what to see. So educational We could have not anticipated the delightful day we had in Tenerife and the volcano. Thank you, Luis and Jonnie Off the cruise ship or visitor, Gloma rocks Chris and Debbie - Arizona - USA

Awesome, impressive and thoroughly enjoyable - Hassan Coca Cola was an awesome guide. His running commentaries and knowledge of the history of the region were entertaining and impressive. He was a delight and showed us every sight we requested. We loved being in the Medina with him for shopping and visiting numerous sites that Tangier has to offer.
