Must do tour! - This was an excellent tour of Tenerife from the volcano to the sea. Our driver was very good. Alexis, our guide, taught me quite a bit about geology and the history of the island.

Very nice day trip - Very nice day trip. Of course there are areas for improvement, but overall it was well organized. Enthusiastic guide Rosa spoke English and French and shrieked our ears off. Luckily the driver remained calm and knowledgeable, because ohhhh those narrow roads with hairpin bends, which he couldn't take in one go.
Prices vary quite a bit, but €50 is neat for the bus tour with guide and driver. Entrance fee, meals and drinks are at your own expense.

Highly recommended - I would highly recommend this tour if you’re looking for a day out. The tour guide Fernando was very knowledgeable and pleasant and the driver navigated the narrow and windy roads like a pro! I was worried it was going to be rushed at the stops but I felt there was just enough time at each stop especially as it was very cold in these mountainous areas. Unlike many tours I’ve been on there were no unnecessary tourist trap stops and the tour delivered exactly what it said on the tin.

Memorable trip with the best guide and bus driver - We booked this trip to be able to see some of the sights in a convenient way. We truly cannot recommend this trip enough. Both our Tour guide Rosa and the bus driver Kiko made the trip even more memorable. And even the trip to Masca alone for us was so worth it. The trip down to Masca is very stressful, but Kiko did an amazing job navigating narrow corners and upcoming vehicles while being on a bus. Truly nervewrecking in itself and I genuinely recommend the whole package.

Excellent!!! - Wonderful tour, fantastic driver Bernardo, and excellent guide, who spoke English, Hungarian and German. The guide gave us just perfect amount of information, and everything I was wondering about got covered on this tour. He had really good sense of humour and was very knowledgable. The pick-up was punctual, and nice clean bus with airconditioning and safety belts. So worth every penny! Just loved the experience!

Great day, great value, but we nearly missed out! - Be wary of pickup points. We had to make a mad dash because the details in the app were not correct. The app said we would be collected at our hotel but the bus didn’t come. Eventually I contacted a local number & the bus did not have our hotel listed as a stop. The stop was about 500m away. Thankfully the guide waited for us!

Pick up point (Sol Arona)... - Pick up point (Sol Arona) was quite chaotic with lots of tour busses turning up. Also, bus was 1 hour late. But guide was fun, helpful & enjoyed the trip)

A Refreshing Deep Dive into "Real" Tenerife
Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ - If you want to see the side of Tenerife that isn't dominated by "tat" shops and bars, this is the trip for you. It’s a fascinating contrast to the south—which we learned was largely built for tourism in the 1960s—offering a much greener, more historic perspective of the island.
The Highlights:
The Route: A well-paced journey through Mount Teide, Masca, Icod, and Garachico.
The Vibe: The North is lush and steeped in history, providing a much-needed break from the typical holiday-goer hotspots.
The Value: A full day of exploration that definitely feels like money well spent.
What to Expect:
The itinerary is packed. With four stops, the first three felt a bit like "taster sessions"—short visits that give you just enough flavor to know where you’d like to return independently. Our guide was exceptional, providing deep context and stories that made the landscapes come alive.
A Word of Warning: The Road to Masca
Masca is stunning, but the journey there is an adrenaline rush! The road is incredibly narrow and winding. Watching our coach driver navigate oncoming traffic on those hairpin turns was a feat of engineering and nerves. The coach drivers deserve a huge bonus for their navigation skills alone—definitely not a drive for the faint-hearted!
The Verdict:
A lovely, informative, and authentic day out. It’s the perfect way to scout the island's hidden gems while enjoying some world-class scenery.

Long day - ticking off the sights - The reason for the 3 stars is our guide Maria who was fantastic, otherwise would have given a 2 star to this trip.
The bus was very poorly maintained -the windows were not clean and hence not ideal for photos; the bus was stuffy and some of the air conditioning vents were not working. The brakes made alarming squealing noise every time they were being used and it was not reassuring in steep mountain roads.
The driver drove very fast on winding mountain roads and many were feeling sick (one of the guests started vomiting, and had to be brought forward and Maria kindly gave up her seat for this guest).
The total length of the trip was 8 hours - actual time spent at the spots were 30mins at Roque de Garcia, 1.5hr at Icod de los Vinos where some time was spent at a souvenir shop and rest for lunch which was substandard. There is not much to see here anyway other than the tree. Some guests returned late from lunch, so our next stop at Garachico was cut short to 5mins. Next stop was at Masca Valley which can be accessed through winding narrow mountain roads and was actually very nice place and spent 30mins there before returning back to base. This felt like a rushed tick-box exercise and Maria mentioned at the beginning that this was three trips squashed into one! So in my opinion, the itinerary does not do justice to any of the places visited. The best place to visit is the Teide national park and having done a cable-car trip the day before, we realised what the tourists missed by just seeing the Rocque de Garcia.
There was a toilet break at Villaflor where almost five buses stopped and there were only two toilets each for gents and ladies, which was absolutely not right with long queues outside the toilets - if that is the preferred stop by all tour companies then need to have the right infrastructure to support that especially when tourists are charged 1 euro for the toilet.

Not very good - The company did not provide the exact meeting time to us and the guide was not very polite about it, though it was not our fault.
