Reviews
Good day out. We could have spent much longer exploring the rock formations in the lower caldera.
Great, tour guide and the bus trip was good as we had stops along the way for toilet/food break and also shops nearby where we could look and buy stuff. For the amount of time we had at Mt Teide was more then enough.
Very good tour, informative.
Very interesting, good guides and it's easy to buy the tickets
Very good tour, stopping at interesting places on the way up to the cable car. Very talented tour guide speaking in multiple languages.
Mooie tour veel info van gids . Niet goedkoop maar wel leuk
Great tour. If travelling from the north you get to the cable car Station at 11:30. You have up to 14:30 to explore the mountain top and have something to eat - which is more than enough time. With the wait for the next cable car and then the journey time up the summit you get up about 11:50. Unless you are hardcore walker an hour at the summit is more than enough and then journey back down for something to eat. Wear appropriate clothes - not beach wear. There are paths at the top but it is a volcano so these are uneven paths. It can also be cold. Dress appropriately! Give yourself time to get back down the mountain too on the cable car so you can enjoy something to eat. After the 14:30 they make two other stop off on teide for photos. The views from teide are amazing so take your camera but also just take some time to enjoy the views for what they are because there are some views that a photograph will never do justice too!

Easy buying a ticket this way and had almost immediate feedback, organising the time and pick-up point for the tour minibus
good value for money, would recommend to friends
*** Fantastic day out to the cable car on Mount TIEDE. The pickup was around 9:20am, and we were back for 4:30 pm. Made friends and had a great time. There was plenty of photo opportunities going up and coming down. Victor the driver was a great driver and Rachel was very professional guide. The stop off at Bambi restaurant was well needed as we all had worked up an appetite, we tucked Into a set menu Of Canaria food which was delicious and very reasonable price wise, a soup a main and coffee or a sweet with a bottle of house wine for around *** euros. Would definitely recommend this excursion to anyone wanting to see more of the Island.
Simply a great experience!
'"The tour is a real must in Tenerife. Well-guided, unforgottable experience. Hungarian credit cards weren''t accepted, so i had to ask a friend to pay by paypal, but totally worth it."'
Pretty good value for your money
Because of their service and information throughout the trip
Well organised tour with plenty of time to visit top of Teide by cable car, the ride up itself in an experience but the views from the top are amazing, we were lucky that the weather was excellent for our visit. Very good guide giving detailed information on the history of the island. What is really interesting as you go higher on the tour is the changes in landscape and flora etc. Punctual pick up and itinerary, comfortable minibus and capable driver
Friendly, very well informed tour guide who helped us to see the most amazing views of the island.
Erg mooie excursie! Enige punt: in de beschrijving staat dat je genoeg mogelijkheden en tijd hebt om te lunchen. Dit is echter niet zo, bij de kabelbaan ben je toch tijd kwijt met wachten, zowel beneden als boven. Boven wil je zo lang mogelijk blijven. Beter om te zeggen dat je lunch mee moet nemen , onderweg opeten kan
An intersting tour. For a non-Spanish speaking person it was a bit hard to follow the information given by the guide in the bus.
Total waste of money. Long and boring bus ride. Guide pointed out obvious things like here is canary clouds, ant here is canary pine-trees, and here is national park. On advert is said tour to the top, but no one is allowed on the top as is completely different tour. Better renting a car and just paying for cable car. Would not recommend
The coach was not fit for purpose - it caused a 20 delay for pickups as the engine was playing up. It was very noisy on the way up to Teide and eventually broke down at about 2pm. We had to wait at the Cable car until 4.40pm for a replacement coach. The Guide tried to manage the situation but was hampered by poor and misleading communication from the Company. We even wondered if we were going to be stranded overnight. Very poor service from the Teide Tours - ruined what should have been a great day out. We were promised that the Company would contact us with an offer of compensation but nothing has been received
The guide was nice and pleasant. It was weard that she was very much speaking or writing on the phone looking like she had some one problems. It was too little time to be up in the Teide.
An 8 hour tour was reduced to 7 by changing one stop from afternoon, thereby rushing the morning stops and reducing the time allowed on Teide. We had to be back on the minibus by 1415. The drive back down was far too fast given the roads used with an over-reliance on brakes. No proper welcome speech was given by the courier and no mention of safety features- see previous sentence! The scenery was fantastic and deserved/demanded a far more leisurely timetable as initially advertised but not delivered. Pick up at Corales Beach at 0855 with a return time there at 1555 was unacceptable.
Very good guide !
Great trip, really good weather helped, informative and educational.
Veey well organized tour and well documented guide. Recomend to those who want an experience at volcano.
Fin oplevelse, kyndig guide.
Tour guide was very knowledgeable and spoke fluent English, German and Spanish. The landscape is stunning. One thing I liked in particular was the tour bus made every effort to pick you up (checking at reception, at different entrances to the hotel etc) instead of simply driving off when someone wasn't waiting as expected. Very considerate.
Amazing experience, you are picket up from your hotel a got in the same place after the excursion. About the volcano, no comments, it is great to get there and the everything including clouds below.
Just finished the Teide Volcano Tour. We had a decent time, but very frustrating. Here's the run down of the good and the bad, THE GOOD -The reminder emails and map to get to the pickup point -The tour guide explained everything well, related to the island and Volcano--statistics and history. -The rest stop for coffee/snack/restroom. -The two photo stop opportunities before the cable car -The experience taking the cable car up and admiring the top of the volcano. THE BAD -Having to walk to the pickup point and then have to wait through four other stops before the trip to Teide started. That took almost one hour (wasted). -Having to listen to two other languages through the tour, besides our English, was annoying. -Having to drop a set of guests off at the observatory before dropping us off at the Cable Car made no sense, as we drove right by the Cable Car along the way. Again, more wasted time (another hour). If we didn't have to do that, we would have had more time on the top of the volcano for hiking. Needless to say, they could have made the experience much better for us, instead of making it more convenient for them (the tour company).
