I had a wonderful day touring the island and stopping at some of the most beautiful spots on Tenerife. Both the driver ang guide could not have been nicer and pleasant. They made the effort to connect everyone on the trip, which meant that by the end, we all knew each other. I would definitely recommend this trip for anyone who wants to get a quick overview of Tenerife.
We had a wonderful time. Our tour guide was very friendly and explained everything perfectly while showing us a lot. Definitely again!
The guide was very knowledgeable and we learnt a lot about the island. There were a few stops along the way which added to the experience. All in all a great day out.
What can I say? It was not a tour package but a great time with Uncle Christopher a lover of the Canaries. He pampered us, counseled us, entertained us... An anniversary that our friend will remember for a long time because he knew how to give another dimension to this simple day of discovery by coach. I also salute our driver or rather our driver because he drives his vehicle with precision and dexterity. We'll come back for more tours with the whole family this time. Tenderly the Caribbean
A good value trip. Did not expect r language commentary, but given the half load on bus ,fair. Ity that one language commentary in french was without the mike and more a personal chat with the passengers near him
Very nice things to do, very nice photos. The only be soft the island is too concrete...canary very welcoming beautiful week.
Lovely day tour with pick up from a hotel in Los Gigantes. The lunch left a little to be desired (at own cost of €17) but did have a veggie menu. The bus driver was excellent (per the other reviews!) and the last section of the day was incredible with all the views. The stops are relatively short, so you can't go too far from the pick up point. Christoph was incredibly good humoured and open to questions (he speaks 5 languages!). The downside is that the route is very wiggly, so potentially travel sickness for those that suffer and at times the instructions for where to go (especially after lunch) aren't completely clear, so ask lots of questions! All in all, a decent tour for the price, but you will want to do more exploring if you're only planning on one tour during your stay.
Spent 2hrs on the bus picking up clients at various locations before the tour started propet. Too many on bus 48 in total Apart from Puerto De La Cruz only 30-40 mins spent in any location. The guide was obsessed with making sure that clients returned to the bus on time. Another hour and a half spent dropping off clients at the end of tour. My backside was sore from sitting on the bus. The guide was very indistinct and spoke too fast. Not worth €92.
Perfect way to check off some major points of interest and get a feel of the island, and there was plenty of time to enjoy each spot. Amazing was also the variety of pickup spots they offered! My pickup time got changed twice, but that is to be expected with last minute guests joining. I ended up being driven to Las Américas free of charge, great service.
We originally booked for a ‘round the ixlsnd’ trip but I forth is had to be cancelled due to a transport strike! We were lucky enough to be offered an alternative the following day. It was a different - and act slightly better - itinery. We went to Mount Teide and made 3 other stops. Our guide was interesting and informative (Tox), the driver (Joel) brilliant and the whole trip was a fabulous day’s entertainment. Thanks to the company (tour operator) for their help and assistance. We thoroughly en our excursion. 😃
