Tenerife Wonder Walk





Description
This tour program was created to explore the most beautiful and protected natural parks on Tenerife island: Volcano Teide & Anaga Cloud Forest. Teide National Park has volcanic landscapes with many ancient craters that will bring a different planet feeling, while Anaga is an always green cloud forest located on the North Eastern tip of Tenerife where Atlantic trade winds form often a sea of clouds. You will be able to discover and explore the unique volcanic landscapes formed on Tenerife during millions years of evolution, sense different climacteric zones, learn about Canary Islands history, endemic flora and fauna during an easy walk or a moderate hike, following the paths of ancient indigenous tribes who habited Canary islands before the arrival of Spaniards. As a photographer I usually make few portraits of the tour guests around natural landscapes we visit. This isn't obligatory though. Optional we can stop at a local restaurant or organise a picnic in nature. See you :)

Itinerary
Anaga is a subtropical cloud forest with unique flora and fauna, that is traversed by some centuries-old paths of the Guanches, the ancient indigenous tribes that once habited the island of Tenerife. The atmosphere is fairytale and very mesmerising, great for some photo scenes. Located at an altitude of up to 1000 meters above sea level where the trade winds from Atlantic form a sea of clouds.
Anaga
Get into Mars-like dessert landscapes around Teide National Park. Walk around and discover some endemic volcanic plants and flowers that grow on Tenerife island. Optional: visit the highest peak of Spain and also among all the Atlantic islands at 3700 meters altitude with the Teide cable car at an extra cost per adult of 40 € (ascent & descent).
Mirador in Spanish means viewpoint. During our drives and exploration of the national parks, we will stop at different picturesque viewpoints to do some photos, take videos and even there's possibility for some meditation time or a nature picnic. Notify the guide in case you would like to enjoy a picnic in nature with a view.

We joined this tour on the third day of our stay in Tenerife, and it turned out to be one of the highlights of our trip. Victor, our guide, picked us up in the morning, and our first destination was the northern part of the island, the Anaga region. There, we enjoyed a beautiful hike through a fairy-tale-like green forest. I would recommend bringing a windbreaker and a pair of sneakers you don't mind getting a little dirty. Afterwards, we headed towards Teide National Park, making several stops along the way to admire the stunning views. It felt as though we had travelled to another planet in just half an hour, walking above a sea of white clouds that looked like the frothy milk on your morning cappuccino. Unfortunately, access to the park itself was closed due to roadworks, but we were still able to enjoy breathtaking mountain views and almost Martian landscapes from several viewpoints. Sunscreen and a cap are definitely recommended, as the sun at 2,000 metres above sea level is no joke. Following the hike, we stopped at a lovely local restaurant recommended by Victor and enjoyed some delicious food. The day was packed with memorable experiences and beautiful scenery. Victor took great care of us throughout the tour and shared many interesting facts about the island's nature, climate, local life, and some of his favourite places. After the tour, he even sent us a list of recommendations for restaurants and beaches, which we used during the rest of our stay on the island and were very happy with. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone who enjoys hiking and spectacular landscapes and wants to experience the diverse and ever-changing spirit of Tenerife.
As a mom traveling with my daughter, I was looking for the best combo to visit in peace the most beautiful sites available to us on the island, while being sure to make real hikes, without the worries of logistics. And Victor was the perfect choice: exchanges by WA before D-Day to be sure to offer us the best route, adaptability to the weather, desire to share and knowledge of the place. We spent an extraordinary day with someone who loves what he does and has a lot of generosity. And bonus pro photos. I recommend without hesitation.
Amazing adventure throughout some of the best locations around Tenerife. Victor is the only guide you’ll ever need. Not only is he very passionate and well prepared, he also tailors the experience around your needs and when the weather doesn’t allow to get the best experience in a location, he will come up with another spot that you can visit. It looks like going around with a friend that knows perfectly the beauties of the place in which he lives, and that takes amazing photos. Honestly, I don’t think you need a different guide from Victor, he is all you need in your adventure around Tenerife.
Victor was UH-MAZING! He picked us up from the Main Square which was super easy to find. He talked the whole time we were in the car. He taught us about the town, how it was developed, the nature, you name it he was able to say something about it. If he didnt know the answer, he even reached out to us after the tour and told us the answer. His driving was calm and chill, no worries there. He took us out in the pouring rain and was such a trooper hiking with us out there. He took us to a local spot to eat which was FANTASTIC. He even does photography, so he took pictures of us out in the field and sent them to us via Google docs. When he dropped us off, he even gave us Canary Island chocolates which were fire. He such a cool guy, I would 1000% recommend this tour.
This was a great day out with Victor. Excellent communication & prompt pick up. It is so much better to have your own personal tour than be herded around with up to 50 people (as many of the other tours quote). Victor knows the perfect spots with the best views, being also a photographer. These views are so beautiful they will take your breath away. Victor is also very knowledgeable on Tenerife, the areas and flora & fauna. I was particularly interested in the rainforest, it is not something most people are aware of when visiting Tenerife. The rainforest was awesome, love the colors & the different climate. Makes for wonderful memories & photos. Had it not been for the uphill walk back would have loved to see more. Don't get me wrong, its not hard my any means, I just have a few mobility issues. The city of San Cristobel De La Luna is also very picturesque and I guess a bit off the beaten track for most tourists. Its a good job it was a Sunday or it may have been difficult dragging me away from the shops. I highly recommend Victor and whatever route you choose I know you will have the most amazing holiday photos and memories to last a lifetime. If and when I ever come back to Tenerife I would like to discover more beautiful terrain with Victor!
Victor was an amazing guide. He was very knowledgeable and made the whole experience very enjoyable. The views and locations were incredible. Highly recommend.
A great experience from start to finish with Victor. He’s a knowledgeable Tour Guide who customize his tours to the needs of his group and gives a very personal touch that is much appreciated. My kids and I had a great time with him exploring many of Tenerife’s natural wonders. One word of advice: if you’d like to do things that require tickets, such as the cable car to the top of the volcano or the lava tubes, make sure you coordinate with Victor in advance as these things can sell out. Lastly, an extra set of bonus points for Victor for being a great photographer and bringing his own camera along to capture photos of our adventures.
We had a perfect day with Viktor. Everything was top notch- communication, pick-up, a very considerate and knowledgeable man. Beautiful routes and breathtaking stops along the way. Nice and local place for lunch. My daughter and I were super happy. Thank you!
He picked us up near the cruise pier where our cruise ship arrived at and made sure we had ample time to return before the ship left. Viktor’scommunication was excellent and he texted us the day before and tailored the tour based on our input on the day of the tour. He told us that he NEVER cancels a tour and I was instantly confirmed when I booked this tour. I had booked other tours in different ports that were not confirmed (after waiting 3 days) and I had to scramble to find alternatives. If the tour is available on tour date it will happen! His English is excellent, he is highly educated, and a great photographer too.
The wonder walk experience with Victor, by far exceeded what I expected when I originally booked. The adventure was filled with beautiful sites, a vast amount of knowledge and history, a personalized approach to my preferences for the day, one of the best meals I had during my entire stay at Tenerife (a quaint, homely restaurant Victor had suggested along our way, I forgot to write down the name🤦♂️), enjoyable hikes, amazing photos and above all else, the great conversations we had along the way. Truly a highlight of my trip. His genuine kindness, personality, and the conversations we had gave me a lot to reflect on and cherish.
