Our fourth personal excursion with Gloma Travel and you could say it was out of this world! (Or felt like it!) - We have no words to describe how wonderful our trip was to Los Gigantes, Masca, some hidden places and Buena Vista! We loved the mind boggling diversity from one turn in the road to the next with our fabulous guide Diego, who was born and raised here in Tenerife. He was absolutely amazing, and showed us places so off the charts that he stopped in the middle of the road so I could take pictures quite a few times, because there was nobody out there! We didn’t pass one car and saw some spectacular places - one place looked like the moon or like a scene out of Star Wars. He knew where to go for the most delicious cheeses and local wines and fantastic food that the locals love. The roads can be hair pin turns, narrow, and very very steep with blind corners. When we visited the first time to Tenerife we rented a car and experienced all the craziness of not knowing where we were going and dealing with traffic and parking, or taking the buses which is an experience not that great. This time, we got to know the island with exquisite style, learning from a Tenerife native in English things we would have never understood. It’s difficult to say which of the four tours we recommend most, because they were each unique and spectacular, but I would have to say our special tour with Diego that introduced some new spots not previously offered on tour, was our personal favorite, mostly because some of the places we did not see another soul even though Masca and all the well known places were quite crowded. My son and I loved every single moment, and were very comfortable even on the wild roads and lots of traffic. I can highly recommend this tour or any one of Gloma travels private excursions because I know they treat you like family, and you feel like family! Thanks to Diego and Belén for guiding us on these magical tours, we have had the most incredible four days of our entire lives! We love Gloma Travel and I believe you will too. Highly recommended!

Amazing tour in Tenerife - Diego our driver and tour guide was exceptional. He navigated us through all the winding roads with expertise. Customized our trip to our liking and was not in a hurry to move to the next stop. This was an all day trip with stop for lunch. He gave very useful information about the sites and geography along the way. He even added an additional stop the was not included in the trip. Our conversation throughout the tour was pleasant and we felt that he genuinely cared that we had a good time. I would definitely recommend him to any one wanting to discover more about Tenerife.

1000/10 - This is by far the best tour I’ve ever gotten in any country I’ve visited (and I travel a lot). For my husband and I this was the highlight of the trip. We heard the drive to Masca was tough to do on our own so we decided to look into a private tour. This lead us to here and to Diego. Diego drove super safe and engaged us with incredible knowledge of the Island. There was plenty of time to walk around and really take in each area. We even sat down to grab a bite. It definitely felt like we were family as the day went on. I’ll never forgot this experience and all the beauty we saw. Thank you Diego

Very easy stress free way to see the island. - We had a great day out. Going on a private tour like this is the best way to see the island. Much much better than hiring a car and having to drive yourself especially on the very winding road down to Masca. No need to worry about finding a parking spot either as the guide takes care of that while we took pictures. Diego our guide was very knowledgable and we learned a lot about the islands history. He took us to some of his favourite viewpoints and took a slower route back to show us a the forest. Money well spend.

The northwest of the island - super beautiful! - We were picked up directly from the hotel by Diego for the trip. Diego is a friendly, attentive driver who was completely attuned to our needs. We had plenty of time to see the village of Masca, the roaring sea in Buenavista del Norte, the cute town of Garachico and the dragon tree in Icod. Diego told us lots of interesting things about the history and nature of the island. Communication in English was great. The trip ended in a small restaurant (Guachinche). There was delicious, inexpensive food and the service was very friendly and funny. It was a wonderful day.

Masca Gastro Tour with Diego - Our host/driver Diego picked us up on time at our finca in the Los Realejos area. Since we alredy have been to Garachico he spontaneously changed the route to show us some new spots. His driving was very smooth and we felt totally safe with him. During the ride he was giving a lot of information about Teneriffe and was answering all our questions We enjoyed everything, the ride, the places, the food and had a good time. The trip was worth the money, I can absolutely recommend Gloma Travel. Diego, thank you for the nice trip.

Excellent small group tour … see places not seen with large groups! - We very much enjoyed our small group tour (4 in our group). Our driver/guide Diego was an excellent driver and very knowledgeable about all the places we stopped or drove through. With this tour we were able to visit place that larger tour buses could not go, and got a nice close up interactions with many of the old towns and other remote locations. I would recommend this trip to those who are looking to get good insights to the uniqueness and history of Tenerife.

Tour of the island - Spectacular tour, not being able to visit Teide due to fires, we toured some of the towns of Masca and Garachico, visit to the wine shop with tasting and then extras, apologizing for the small initial delay in Santa Cruz, fantastic wonderful places, very kind and knowledgeable guide, unique experience that I would do again 🔝🔝👍👍👍
