Through no fault of your own the cable car was closed due to winds. However, the mixed language group spoilt the commentary - it seemed that the English version was always much shorter than the German and Spanish (and not just because it is a more concise language - there were some elements missing), priority seemed to be given to the German tourist. Listening to 3 language each time was tiring. Also number of pickups/drop-offs made the day tedious. Smaller bus, single language would be better.

Timing was an issue. 30 minutes late for pick up. Constantly late leaving each stop… which meant we all had little time to actually eat! So we did the full day with the option of explore Tiede, or eat. So we explored. I would have liked time for a sandwich. Or a coffee. But that wasn’t possible

Great knowledgeable tour guide. The coach pick up was 40 mins late! We contacted Tui after 20 mins late and they were quick to get back to me and let me know there was delay. The local tour operator did ring after 30 mins but it was very stressful wondering where the coach was. Apparently it was due to other participants not turning up. The cable car was not running due to bad weather which was disappointing but understandable and we were automatically refunded.

The guide was very knowledgeable about the area and the history of the volcanos. There is a small restaurant at the cable car station fit for and snacks. Please be aware that the altitude is 3500 metres at the top of the cable car, so some may have difficulty with altitude. You also need good walking shoes or trainers at the top. To get to the very top, you need to apply separately for a permit to walk up to the summit, but the views even without that are still excellent

La Gomera Tour from Tenerife with lunch

As you approach La Gomera by sea, the dramatic contours hint at extraordinary landscapes waiting to be explored. As Arianne, one of our expert local guides says, "A trip to La Gomera is like visiting a totally different era.

On this day trip from Tenerife, you'll discover remote villages, spend time in Garajonay National Park and visit the capital, San Sebastian.

The visitor centre is the place to find out more about the unique botany and history of Garajonay.

Teide National Park Tour with Expert Local Guide

Tenerife is a medley of picture-postcard villages, high-octane viewpoints and otherworldly landscapes. And nowhere more so than in Teide National Park. On this full day tour, you'll wind your way up the slopes of Mount Teide volcano, where an optional cable car ride can take you to the summit. Juana, one of our expert local guides, says, "Teide National Park and the surrounding Corona Forestal Nature Reserve together account for one third of Tenerife's land mass – the extent to which the volcano dominates our island is indescribable."Dramatic volcanic landscapes await as you venture into Teide National Park to see the showstopper itself – the 3,700-metre Mount Teide. As you climb, you'll pass through four different climate zones, which create an ever-changing kaleidoscope of terrains, flora and fauna. And because of its geological importance, the park is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Juana says, "The park boasts a variety of camera-grabbing landscapes. There's the scorched earth of the lava fields, the jagged rock formations of Roques de Garcia, the Mars-like badlands around Montaña Rajada and the pine forests of the Corona Forestal."As an optional extra, you can avail of the cable car service to just below the summit of the volcano. From this altitude, weather permitting, you can enjoy head-spinning views over Tenerife and the rest of the Canary archipelago jutting up from the Atlantic.
