Just magic. The whole departure had gone smoothly. Maria and her colleague were very friendly and helpful. The only thing that bothered me was the dirty window on the bus. Otherwise everything was perfect. Thank you
Fortunately I booked a tour of mount Teide on a sunny day, it snowed the day after and there was an earthquake apparently but I didn't notice. That was the day after the tour so we all did well as some tours the day after were cancelled. The tour guide and driver were excellent. I got some good photos and had just enough time for, drinks, a snack and the toilet when the coach parked up. The stops gave us enough time and the coach went a different way on the way back so I got dropped off first. It was very good.
Beautiful views but they should’ve organised a different tour for the people doing the cable car as we had a long stop dropping and picking them up (not sure if some people were late coming down) but we only had a hour stop out of a 6/7 hour day so too long to be on a bus for kids
Wow!! Words do not do the views from near the top justice. Jose as our guide was amazing, delivering insightful information about Teide and the surrounding areas in German, English & Spanish. Domingo as our driver ensured we were safe at all times whilst navigating the winding roads. Would definitely recommend purchasing the cable car tickets to climb to 3500 meters for the amazing views of Tiede.
Lack of communication from agent / host . Very poor knowledge/ clarity when speaking on tannoy on coach trip . Would not recommend to anyone.
Hi Logan, I think you didn't write the review on the right place. We are always in touch with customers. Our company is Tenerife Trips & Holidays. I will suggest you if you can delete this review please from our page. Kind regards Eliazar Rodríguez
I chose this tour because it was a 1 /2 day and what I thought would be a small group tour. It was half a day but a large group which made me uncomfortable in these pandemic times. People were respectful of space, etc. but the size of the group made picture taking and exploring quite difficult throughout. I suppose it’s what you get though when it’s peak tourist time and the agencies are hungry to recover monies lost during pandemic closures. There were two quick stops on the way up and the guide was wonderful and mega intelligent when offering historical and fun facts about the volcano and region in it’s entirety. But I found myself asleep for most of it having to be in the bus for long stretches of time.
Thank you for your review, The quantity of people on the bus is not related to recuperate money from pandemic, it's always been like that. I always recommend people to contact us in case of planning small group trips, and just paying some extra. Kind regards Eliazar Rodríguez
I know its not the companys fault but too high winds and the cable cars werent working so we never got to the top. Gutted 😭😭😭😭
Hi Jenny as you Said the weather conditions do not depends on the companies... It's the nature and many times cable car does not work because of it. Kind regards Eliazar Rodríguez
I chose this trip as I only wanted to see Teide and most the other trips visited other villages and stopped for lunch etc. This trip was perfect as it was approximately 4.5 hours from Santa Cruz and back again. There was one stop for a toilet break for 15 minutes which was perfect. The bus used was very good and the driver felt very safe. I would recommend checking the likelihood of the cable car being in operation as it wasn't operating in early February because of wind and ice.
Hi Michael I'm really glad this tour was adapted to your needs. It was a pleasure to organize the tour for you. Kind regards Eliazar Rodriguez
Interesting terrain, very informative and helpful guide The booking agent did not give us the option of booking the cable car, fortunately the guide was able to do so
Hi Jennifer I'm glad you have enjoyed the trip and the guide, about the cable car on the description of the trip appear that if you are interest on the cable car, you should let us know. Kind regards. Eliazar Rodriguez
When we stayed in Tenerife, Eliazar was of great help in finding available activities for me and my husband! Thank you for the great service. :-)
