The Grand Tour to Teide, Masca, Icod, and Garachico is a great opportunity to get to know the island of Tenerife in one day. The driver and guide were very professional, pleasant, and sincere. I took the tour on my birthday, and it made it unforgettable and atmospheric.
Mycket trevlig rundtur med fantastiska vyer. Tyvärr blir stoppen för korta, förutom vid Teide där vi hann runt bra. I Garachico stannar vi bara 20min och hinner inte se något av den fina staden. Önskvärt är att ta bort Icod till förmån för att se mer av de andra platserna. Vill man gå på toa hinner man inte se platserna. Bra minibuss med AC och trevlig guide. Resan är inget för den åksjuke :)
All was done at ease. Very comfortable on board also.
The trip was fantastic. We would have liked to spend more time in Masca, and the lunch break could have been a bit earlier.
If you have planned a week or less in Tenerife sud area this tour is a must. Everything was fine from the pick up at the hotel to the selection of stops. A special thanks to our italian guide Paolo: very competent and kind
The tour covered the top must see places on the north of the island. Our guide and driver were both top notch and gave us an excellent experience. The area that needs improvement is the bus that we had. It was very tight and the AC did not work for over half of the trip. It was very hot and we were sweaty. As well, there was the smell of exhaust that was suffocating at times.
Thank you for the Nice Trip
Tour in general was very nice. Good quality bus, tour guide friendly and helpfull. The lunch was good quality and local dishes with nice taste. Gomera is beautiful island but the tour you will spend mainly in the bus with stops for few photos
Overall, We had great experience. The tour is indeed best one. The guide was amazing and really happy with the amount of information he has shared during the complete tour. I won’t hesitate to recommend.
Thank you guys!
We had an amazing time, they picked us up on time and on the location we chose, the guide was fantastic and he spoke 3 languages. Even tho there was only me and my cousin speaking english, he happily spoke english only for us. I wouldnt go again in the recommended restaurant, it was okay and affordable (17eur for 3course meal) but the food wasnt a culinary experience :/. It was also full and therefore stressful to be on time for the bus. Id recommend packing your own food so you can walk around with it in the pretty village. Also dont worry in summer, the bus has AC :)
.
Thanks for the efficient and friendly service provided
Très bon service et personnel pro
Thoroughly enjoyed our trips, my only feeling is, that Santa Cruz should be visited last, La Laguna we found a little boring to be honest. If you did the trip the other way round, where at least you had more shops etc at Santa Cruz it would be great.
Juste magnifique. Merci beaucoup ????
I recently joined an excursion to Mount Teide and Masca, expecting a day rich in natural beauty and cultural insight. While the landscapes certainly delivered, the overall experience was unfortunately overshadowed by a strong focus on commercial stops rather than the attractions themselves. ???? Missed Opportunities at Key Stops - Icod de los Vinos: Our stop here was limited to lunch at Carmen restaurant. Sadly, the service was underwhelming and rushed, and we weren’t given any time or guidance to explore the town or learn about its famous Dragon Tree or wine heritage. - Masca: The drive to Masca was thrilling, with winding roads and breathtaking views. However, once we arrived, there was no explanation or background provided about the village—no stories, no history, no context as to why it’s considered a must-see destination. It felt like a photo stop, not a cultural experience. ???? Guide & Driver The guide and driver were professional and did their jobs well. It’s clear they were adhering to a set itinerary, likely dictated by company policy. They managed the logistics smoothly and kept the group on schedule. ???? Too Commercial, Not Enough Culture The biggest disappointment was the tour’s emphasis on commercial points—places clearly chosen for their sales opportunities rather than their touristic value. It felt more like a shopping route than an exploration of Tenerife’s natural and historical gems. ???? Final Thoughts This tour has great potential, but the company needs to shift its focus. Tourists come for the stories, the culture, and the wonder of the island—not to be funneled through sales-driven stops. With a few changes, this could be a truly memorable experience. Until then, it’s more of a missed opportunity than a must-do.

My girlfriend and I really enjoyed the excursion, we had a very kind and expert guide and a very good bus driver which made us feel very safe during our travels across Tenerife. Worth every penny, would highly recommend!

The tour was interesting, a bit scary due to very narrow winding roads high up and the bus had a hard time in the bends. The driver was just excellent and should receive a medal for his driving skills. The guide spoke in both English and Russian. It was hard to know when she was speaking Russian and not English as there was no pause between switching from English to Russian. Therefore I could not always understand what she was saying although my English is excellent. My only complaint is the food for lunch which we bought, a 3 course meal. I paid EUR 25 per person (paid for 5 people) but the menu showed the price of EUR 17. We did though receive a glass of wine, small portion and no refill. The food was not tasty, unfortunately, and serving the icecream in a small plastic container, like one buys in the store, was surprising, never had that before. I realize this was a small village high up in the mountain which possibly is a reason for some of this but it was disappointing as I and my people were used to excellent food otherwise. Sadly it both rained and was foggy which affected the visibility in part of the trip, but the first half was sunny with beautiful view. The trip was worth it though. Thank you.
La experiencia fue realmente bonita, conocimos todos los lugares mencionados en la descripción del tour, la recogida fue a la hora y en el lugar exactos, el guía turístico (Fonso) nos proporcionó toda la información, y nos explicó cada detalle de todos los lugares visitados, fue bastante divertido y dinámico, el conductor (Bernardo) muy experimentado, no tuvimos ningún inconveniente en la carretera de Masca, realmente recomendamos la experiencia.
A Formula 1 driver, amazing roads and views, a tasty dinner. An amazing guide who loves his work and his homeland. A little more time at Teide and Masca would be welcomed.
I did a lot of guided tours during my trips and I have never met a guide so knowledgeable, friendly, patient and genuine as Paolo. Great places, fantastic organization and amazing experience! Thank you!!!
This excursion was particularly well organized. The coach driver is to be commended for his professionalism, as is the interpreter, who, driven by her love of her island, constantly shared her extensive knowledge with us to help us get to know it. A precious person.
Excellent tour and very passionate and engaging guide Ildefonso. Highly recommended! Thanks!
We had the most beautiful day with our guide Ildefonso & the best busdriver Fran (showed some serious skills at Masca’s overcrowded traffic). Got picked-up perfectly on time in the south en went via Villaflor to El Teide, Icos de los Vinos where we had some local product tasting. Further on to Garachico where we had home-cooked traditional lunch and afterwards to Masca with stunning views. We enjoyed the whole day!
Went with my partner and my brother. They didn’t really want to go but they loved it and thanked me for taking them. The guide was speaking russian and English, I understood both haha. Such a useful and a lot of information from the guide. Wish we were by teide at least 1h as 30min was not enough at all.
Was a super experience! Our guide was very nice and we have learned a lot! Tnx for the great day!
Booked in English Endes up hearing russian english and spanish Was neat overall :)
Excellent trip and service, good value for money, guide very knowledgable and humerus, driver was excellent and proved to be very skilful during the drive through the mountains.
Our guide Enrique was really great, we learned a lot about Tenerife and had a lot of fun. The driver (“Harry”?) did a great job.
Dall’organizzazione del tour, a Barbara la nostra guida (bravissima e preparatissima). Un assaggio di questa fantastica isola, ben goduto e rigenerante! Consiglio a tutti :)
Im so grateful for visit everything with you.. Thank you so much. Hvala, pusa!
Best tour!
Highly recommended!
Please work with Get Your Guide to provide more accurate pickup time information. I was provided an incorrect pickup time for my tour. This resulted in an unexpected wait time of 2 hours for my actual tour to start.
The visit was very interesting, with information by the guide, everything was correctly timed, with moments for pictures, little shopping and bathroom brakes. Nice places visited, good bus, excellent driver Bernardo :)! And super guide Samuel. Thanks a lot!
We had a very enjoyable day on this trip in November. We were very lucky to have a very knowledgeable and helpful guide, Helen. Carlos was our driver who was skilled and very careful on these very narrow uphill roads. We would have loved to had more time in each of the beautiful places we visited and we understand that there was a timescale to be adhered to. With thanks
Great excursion to Teide National park, views as you are visited Mars, we received a lot of new info from our guide, the timing was perfect, we had good impressions
Nous avons passé une excellente journée entière avec notre chauffeur Chico et notre guide qui parlait très bien français. Nous avons pu voir l essentiel de Tenerife, le Teide et des jolis villages typiques, très bon choix de restaurant pour le déjeuner et vraiment bravo au chauffeur de bus qui maîtrisait à merveille les nombreuses serpentines
Our guide Peter was brilliant, very entertaining and knowledgeable! Would definitely book again!
Excellent service from Enrique and Juan Carlos. Enrique worked very hard to keep us informed and entertained. Juan Carlos drove expertly, especially on the twisty, narrow and busy roads around Masca. We could not have had a better team delivering the tour.
A perfect day
It was a great tour with a lot of beatiful spots
Punctual, patient and knowledgeable guide, 3 way commentary in Spanish, English and German. Loads of information about the history geography, topography, geology, volcanoes, and the flora & fauna of Tenerife. Lots of sites and sights. I think a refreshment break should be earlier in the tour - but I understand that may be difficult.
Good esperienze Paolo perfect
Overall we enjoyed the coach tour and the scenery was beautiful, especially driving around the hairpin bends of the serpentine pass in the Masca Valley - our driver navigated them skilfully. There were quite a lot of miles covered on the tour, our guide was very knowledgeable and a Tenerife local. Our coach party was a mixture of English and Germans so our guide did a great job of first speaking in English, then saying it all again in German. We found that when he was speaking in English, the German people were talking amongst themselves, and when he spoke in German, the English people were talking, making it sometimes difficult to hear everything he said. Reckon it would have been more enjoyable if just one language was spoken on these tours, depending on the nationality of the group. We knew the tour was going to be around 9 hours long with a lot of time in the coach, so we were really surprised that one family bought along their baby, later in the day the baby was crying for a good chunk of the journey, making it hard to hear the guide and making the day trip less enjoyable overall. I think this tour is definitely not suitable for babies or children under 5 due to its length and time spent on the coach.
My only criticism would be having to make a choice between having a coffee or going to toilet, there wasn’t enough time to do both at the scheduled stops. Our tour guide , Paulo ,appeared knowledgeable and he had a good grasp of English unfortunately we still found it difficult to understand all that he told us.
Had a lovely day and Peter was a great tour guide thank you I highly recommend this service
Leider kam der Bus schon eine halbe Stunde zu spät, so dass es noch enger wurde, viel zu besichtigen. Es blieb überall viel zu wenig Zeit. Candelaria hatte ich schon gesehen, da konnte ich in Ruhe einen Kaffee trinken. Aber die Empfehlung des Guides, nach der Besichtigung der Kirche einen Kaffee zu trinken, wäre gar nicht möglich gewesen. Der Altstadtbummel in La Orotava war schön, der hat mir gefallen. In La Garachico waren wir essen und es blieb wieder kaum Zeit, die schöne Stadt zu besichtigen. Es reichte lediglich für ein paar Schnappschüsse. Das Restaurant hatte eine sehr schöne Sicht, aber ich habe auf Teneriffa schon besser und günstiger gegessen. Am Schlimmsten fand ich aber, das wir La Masca nicht besichtigt haben, weil dort ein Bus quer stand und wir deshalb nicht hätten durchfahren können. Wir befanden uns aber bereits nur 15 Minuten entfernt und hätten hin und wieder zurück fahren können. Sicher wären wir dann eine Stunde später zu Hause angekommen. Aber so stand es im Programm und das war der eigentliche Grund, warum ich die Tour gebucht hatte. Einen Ersatz gab es auch nicht, lediglich einen geschlossenen Aussichtspunkt, bei dem man ein paar Bilder durch die Scheibe eines Restaurants machen konnte. So fand ich die Tour insgesamt sehr enttäuschend. Viel Fahrzeit, wenig gesehen. Vielleicht sollte man einfach früher losfahren.
Il tour è stato davvero interessante, ci siamo fermati poco tempo in ogni luogo ma abbiamo avuto la possibilità di visitare diversi posti. Lo stesso giro in autobus ci ha permesso di ammirare posti davvero belli. La nostra guida Paolo e il conducente del bus Gustavo molto bravi.
Wonderful day out.
Very well organised - on time plus guide shared lots of info whilst we were on the bus travelling between stops. Well worth the money
We were looking online and Atlantico is the cheapest we found. It is worth every penny! Alexis, the tour guide who speaks both English and German is knowledgeable about the history in Tenerife. My bf, his mom and I all enjoyed the experience. I would definitely recommend Atlantico to my friends!
Una delle più belle escursioni che ho fatto a Tenerife.
I was extremely satisfied. The guide and the driver were perfect, very kind and funny. They were punctual, the guide was very informative and took a good care of us. Definitely recommend!
The trip was nice to discover the main places in the East and North of the Island. The guide Fonso was fully professional, kind, fun and gave us plenty of interesting informations regarding each places we visited. The driver Victor was fun and a good experienced driver, especially while driving on the Masca roads. I would definitely recommend the day tour!
A really comprehensive tour that shows you the Teide National Park, viewpoints in the North-West and the amazing village of Masca. Please note tickets take 1 day to arrive via email and you have to pro-actively ask at bus stop for your tour as several buses can arrive at the same time. It is memorable and our guide provided a really good amount of interesting information. The roads out of Masca are adventurous!!
What a wonderful journey!!! I absolutely loved it. Beautiful landscapes, the guide Delfonso is a very smart man. Full of knowledge and very plaisant person. Thanks a lot.
We booked the tour with an English/Spanish guide and it was simply superlative - well organised, informative, entertaining, spectacular, exciting! The super duo with guide Enrique (5 stars and more) and driver Xavier (5 stars and more) from Atlantico made the day an unforgettable experience. As a native Canarian, Enrique naturally had an incredible background of knowledge, information and insider jokes about the island, which he conveyed in a very charming and varied way. Xavi was the safe harbour on the mostly very narrow winding roads around Masca and Teide Nature Park. The tour was definitely worthwhile and highly recommended!
Form the organization point of view, there were some problems: at the Fred Olsen Office it was not clear who is your representative, who sould give the tickets etc. The biggest problem with this excursion was the ferry ride from the Tenerrife to the La Palme island. We throw up many time even though we did took the ferry before without any problems. Probably the navigators were in a hurry or there were too many waves..
Fruitful, well-organized tour. Many interesting and different places were visited. The driver was the best! Only a room for improvement - add some more time in Masca. 10 minutes near the dragon tree was enough, 30 mins in Garachico was not enough, but acceptable, 30 mins in Masca was definitely not enough. Anyway the tour is amazing and we are happy to chose it! Many thanks!
Una visita che ricorderemo x tanto tempo un grazie particolare alla guida paolo x la competenza e la chiarezza nel spiegare ....complimenti all autista Osvaldo guidare x la stradina di masca .....
La excursión estuvo muy bien. Unos sitios muy espectaculares y el guía Guillermo impresionante. Un gran guía. Amable y atento. Nos dio información muy interesante. De 10 .
Great tour from Los Christianos. Rosie our guide was very informative, helpful and friendly. Well done Rosie! Would do excursion again but maybe allow more time in Santa Cruz de La Palma? Spoke to Rosie and we are going to book the trekking excursion next time.
Lots to see and this tour is a great way to do it. Driver and tour guide were excellent.
no time in Garrachico 40 minutes in Masca at 40 degrees C very good driver childish guide
Tutto perfetto, avvistati delfini e tartarughe
Super Insel . Schöner Ausflug. Mit sehr mäßiger Reiseleitung.
Excellent way to see the Island and learn about it. Guide very knowledgeable and excellent language skills. Driver skills excellent- especially on mountain roads to/ from Masca. Lunch at Garachisco delightful and excellent value.
We found the tour very informative and stimulating. Every stop was well managed with enough time to explore or in the case of lunch, it was pleasantly unhurried. The driver was excellent especially on the narrow mountain roads. The guide too was very friendly and professional.
Thank you for a good selection of excursions. I am very grateful to our guide Maria for her work. She told us a lot of interesting things about the island, the history of Tenerife and its features. The service was great. Thank you very much.
Ich habe einen wunderschönen , informativen und gut organisierten Ausflug erleben dürfen. Es war super durchgeplant , mit vielen Stops zum Eindrücke sammeln und fotografieren. Die Reiseleitung und der Fahrer waren top. Wer einen Ausflug ohne Verkaufsveranstaltung buchen möchte ist hier richtig. Vielen Dank nochmal.
Trip was very good, lots of informative, educational and entertaining information. A bit dissapointed with time spent (30mins) at final destination Teide. Overall worth the journey due to a fantastic driver and excellent guide, he was superb.
We wanted to see something different on Tenerife and this certainly fitted the bill. Levis our driver was brilliant navigating the roads when we went to see Masca, and Fonz who was our guide was brillaint.He was very knowledgeable, and provided us with so much information. We really enjoyed the day.
Scegliere il tour di Santa Cruz, La Laguna e Taganana in un solo giorno è la scelta perfetta! Il nostro autista Jesus è stato formidabile nel guidare soprattutto sulle strette strade a picco sul mare che portano a Taganana e Paolo ha saputo ben indicarci i punti salienti di ogni cittadina. Potrei consigliare di prolungare il tempo libero a Santa Cruz perché 1 ora è un pò strettina per la capitale Esperienza ottima Grazie
Not all the seat belts worked on the bus The microphone didn’t work. The buses should be checked before they go on the road. It is not safe to not have working seat belts. Would have liked more time in la Laguna. Though tagamar last stop was not worth it nothing much there. Perhaps more time in la Laguna and a difference location added on.
Great experience on this trip.. plenty of stops to take in the view and take lots of photos… our guide “Fonze” was a fountain of knowledge and kept us laughing all day and of course our driver Carlos did an amazing job driving us on the winding roads… highly recommend this trip
Excellent & most enjoyable day - great guide & very informative on many aspects of the island. The one improvement might be the lunch stop/food - not very good!
Really enjoyed this trip. The places we visited were really interesting and great to see (although Masca is sadly very touristy) but most of all was how knowledgeable our guide - The Fonz - was. We learn’t so much about the Island and he made the trip so interesting. We highly recommend this trip
This was a great experience with the company, information needed was helpful with times and dates, on the day good hosting skills and support to the public. Hosting was brilliant with pabl and Pedro.
Alex was helpful and informative and gave an excellent commentary as we toured the main sites of the north of the island. A really interesting day out.
We went on the trip to Santa Cruz, La Laguna and Taganana. The guide Juan is very knowledgeable and helpful throughout the trip. The coach driver also gave excellent service. The north of the island is exceptionally beautiful and although it’s a long day I would recommend to anyone who hasn’t seen that part of the island
The guide was talking quickly all the time the bus was in motion. About what we saw from the windows - mountain, valley sea etc - and priced of information from the 14th century. Totally uninteresting. And nothing of importance such as no of people in the towns and villages, their primary occupation, schools universities etv.
Great excursion! I fully recommend it!
We enjoyed the experience. Being brand new to the island we learned a lot about the area and saw something of where we have visited. Juan was a very good guide and the bus driver, especially the large one that took us back to the resort from Masca. Our small, 22 person bus was too small for someone of my stature (180cm/5ft11in) to get the least bit comfortable.
Our tour guide’s English was amazing and she was approachable throughout. She made us laugh and had suggestions for restaurants. The driver was also experienced and made us feel safe. I would say the tour could be improved by increasing the time at Masca Valley. That part of it felt extremely rushed as we were only allowed 20mins which barely gave us any time to explore or even get a drink. The drive up there was breathtaking but took a while and then we weren’t able to relax there for long felt unfair. We booked our tour from Celtic shop and they had ensured us the time in Masca valley would be approx 45 mins to an hr but this was not the case in reality. Has we have known we would have booked a separate tour just for Masca.
I can highly recommend this company, their staff were very professional and the driver of the bus, was exemplary! Fantastic scenery and La Laguna was a delight :-) the whole trip was amazing! The only thing I find really annoying is the repeated broadcasts, in several languages! It becomes very tiresome! It would be highly beneficial, if the excurions could be in one language for the majority of customers. For example, there were a few German tourists on the bus, who spoke perfect English - yet everything was repeated in German! Then there was two (only) Spanish tourists on the whole full bus, so everything was then repeated in Spanish! I totally understand that the company is trying to please all, but for me personally I would pick a one language trip, over a multi language trip - any day!
Very nice day with a very good driver and a very good guide Thank you!
Thanks for beautiful experience.
I have booked an English tour. The first warning sign was when the Tour Operator emailed me my pickup details, in Spanish. I know how to use google translate, so I cracked the code but for me this is not great customer service. On the day the pickup was in time, no issues. The Guide was nice and looked enthusiastic. Her English was good enough to make her understood. The first stop was at the dragon tree -15mins, comfortably enough to look around. Then we headed to Garachio. On arrival we got free time (with no other recommendations then use the toilet or have a coffee)-45mins. Beforehand the Guide promised us to have a walking tour later. The so called walking tour was a 15mins (if we are generous) walk back to our bus, passing some of the points of interest on the way. Commentary was minimal: ‘This is this, this is that’… that’s it. (To be frank she gave more details on the bus before arrival, but what we got was simply not what most people means by a walking tour.) I’d not challenge this setup in reversed order, because the free time would have given us opportunity to make our own agenda and spend time as we’d like, but in the lack of initial orientation from the Giude that 45mins was useless. Next stop was Masca for approx. 15-20mins. Clearly not enough. We used the toilet or rushed for the closest possible point to take some pictures -we had no time to go very far, so we photographed what we came across, not what we planned. Next stop should have been Teide National Park. Due to a rescue operation we couldn’t make a stop there - nobodies mistake, such things happen. We stopped for 20mins at a viewpoint before lunch, time was enough. The Restaurant where we stopped was in the middle of nowhere, if you felt that lunch after 14:30 is not your thing you were welcomed to make yourself comfortable for 1 hour in the parking lot. There was nothing to see or do around and you were not allowed to stay on bus either. This 60 mins in the pouring rain - temperature: 11C was definitely the low point of any tour what I’ve ever made anywhere in the world. Nothing tells more about how unnecessary this stop was than right after we started our journey back to our hotels. It’s not unusual that tour companies are using commercial stops to fill some space in the itinerary to be able to sell a program what takes not more than 3-4 hours as a day trip, but this case was just extreme. In total this so called day tour actually included max. 50mins content + 105mins “free time” plus transportation. I would not recommend this tour to anyone because of the above ratio. On the positive side let me highlight that our driver was amazing. Hats off to him, he did a great job all day long. Maybe the Tour company has a couple of points to work on related to the structure of this tour, but one thing is for sure: safety matters to them.
The first Two places were fine and interesting. The last were to far away and when we late arrived we were offered a lunch for 22 euro.Nothing else was accepted.We asked if we could buy coffee and something else but were rejected. We had paid 62 euro per person which your offer included lunch. Our trip was estimated to take Max 9 hours It took 10,5 hours.
It was fantastic to see Teide and the national park. But the guidning left a lot to wish for. It was like a tape put on repeat in short sentences in three different languages. No enthusiasm, no dialogue with us paying for the tour. Shortly, a very mechinacal performance from the guide. He seemed very bored with us and his job.
the kayak excursion proved to be a rewarding experience. Our guide David is very friendly and funny. we totally enjoyed the trip. Not only wespotted gigantic turtle, we aslo had the opportunity to watch dophon dance at a very close distance. they even swam towards our boat, a handful of dolphins. highly recommended
Excellent guide
The excursions to Teide and up in the cableway was excellent. Our guide was very friendly and knowledgeable and the driver did a great job up the hairpin bends. Timings were great with stops along the way and for lunch.
We had a wonderful time the guide and driver very good especially getting up mountains in Masca would definitely recommend
Merci pour cette journée magnifique. On a passé super journée grâce à vous. Notre guide Isabelle et notre chauffeur Eibe. Chauffeur était au top dans le virage de Masca. Merci beaucoup. Avec enfants de 1 ans et 6 ans nous avons pu voir beaucoup de chose.
Bellissima isola molto accogliente e super pulita. Ottima organizzazione per fare le escursioni Grazie alla prossima
A fabulous tour, great to see parts of the island we probably wouldn’t have otherwise seen. Really interesting and the guide was fantastic! Definitely recommended
The excursion to Teide National Park and Cable Car to the top was excellent. The coach pick up was on time with a transfer to the bigger coach. The guide was excellent, very knowledgeable and extremely helpful. The driver was very safe and friendly. The stops at various locations were of adequate duration. The cable car ride up to Mount Teide was exhilarating and the views from up there incredible. The time spent there was just right and the way back dropping off at several stops excellent. Thank you Atlantico for another excellent day out.
Our guide for this trip was clearly much more comfortable speaking German and Spanish than English and so I feel we missed out on some of the information. I think that travellers should be warned that the road from Masca is very steep and narrow and that the coach has to maneuver very carefully around the bends. One lady on our coach was holding on with both hands and had her eyes shut and if my mother-in-law had been with us she would have been extremely frightened. Our guide recommended a restaurant in Garachico which was dreadful! The food was terrible and the service even worse and while I appreciate it was cheap I would willingly have paid more for a decent restaurant.
We had previously been on the trip to La Laguna and Masca and were not particularly happy with it so were delighted that this one turned out to be so much better. Our guide was very fluent in English and was clearly fiercely proud of his Island about which he was very knowledgeable. At no time did we feel rushed and had time to explore Santa Cruz and La Laguna at our own pace. The restaurant recommended for lunch at Taganana was excellent with traditional canarian food and excellent service from friendly waiting staff who wanted to keep refilling our wine glasses and encouraging us to have more fruit and ince cream. Such a contrast from the restuarnt at Garachico and at only 5Euros more was worth considerably more. Unlike our trip on 13th to Masca our guide did not ask for any gratuity for himself or the driver and consequently we were happy to show our appreciation.
Good Morning! We booked 5 tours altogether with Atlantico. Over all we are happy with most part of the tours, starting from bookings, pick up and excursions. But there are few points that I want to highlight to make the two trips better. 1. Santa Cruz-La Laguna-Taganana- Had enough time to see Santa Cruz , La Laguna and Anaga Rain forests. In the description of the website, it states that after having lunch (Note-there was very limited choice for vegetarians and just one restaurant open in that area) in Taganana, we will visit golden sands of Las Teresitas beach. But we just spend time in Taganana only. This was little disappointing as my kids were looking forward to visiting the Las Teresita beach. 2. Teide Masca (Grand Tour)- I feel this trip was rushed as we had only half hour at Teide, Los Vinos was fine -1 and hour given- enough time to roam around and have lunch. But after that we had only photo stop at Garachico- that was disappointing as we wanted to spend some more time there. No time given to walk through the cobbled streets of its historic-artistic center, one of the most representative of the Canary Islands, or admire the impressive natural pools of volcanic lava as written on the website. Masca also we just got half an hour to explore. The trip was cut short by 2 hours as we were dropped to our hotel by 4 pm. The website says approximately 9 hours and we were the first one to be picked from La Caleta at 7:50 am . So the actual trip started around 9 pm. Please could I have explanation for why we were not given enough time to explore Garachico? Kind regards Manisha

Mooie daguitstap met perfecte chauffeur en gids
Very enjoyable,spectacular trip to Mt Teide.
La clim du bus mal réglé malgré nos demandes au chauffeur nous avons eu très froid et maintenant tout le monde est malade….
the plot was fine. the space in the bus was too small for long people. we had too many stops to pick up and to deliver all the passengers.
Knowledgeable & pleasant guide, lots of info & passion beautifully conveyed. The coach driver was excellent on the innumerable hairpin bends of the Masca road. Highly recommended tour company.
Geslaagde dag, vooral door de begeleiding van een zeer, enthousiaste gids. Hij gaf gedurende heel de dag uitleg over het eiland en dit met steeds een vleugje humor.
Excellent excursion, guide was knowledgeable and a good communicator. Excellent recommend action for lunch. Highly recommended
Excellent trip, content really good and enjoyable. Driver and guide offered an excellent service. Guide extremely knowledgeable which made for an interesting day.
We had a very nice day trip with a very good guide. He provided lots of information in different languages with a good eye for his people and respect for the nature.
We had a nice trip. The guide told us a lot. The driver was good. We have seen a lot. Only thing i did not like was the sort time we could spent in some places like Masca. But overall a nice trip with a beautiful landscape.
Very good guide; Peter!! Important that the guide do not talk too loud and too much. Peters guiding was perfect. Excellent service.
Alles war sehr gut und der Transport hat wunderbar funktioniert. Vielen Dank ???? ????????????????
Silvia was friendly and knowledgeable about the tours considering he’d only been in the job a few days, he organised two tours for us and both were great experiences the only down side was knowing which bus your tour was as several buses stop at the same stop, a number for your your which could appear on your bus would be helpful.
very good excursion on monday 14 november to the mount tide , full day excursion. we have had a very good guide, he was born and raised in northtenerife, so his knowledge was very good from al the beautifull sceneries we have seen this day. he spook very loud and clear, and slowly in the englisch language. i can recommand this trip to everybody who wants to see your beautifull island tenerife . greetings jan
Hello, we were totally satisfied and will definitely be back.
Great experience
Tijdens deze trip heb ik veel gezien, op sommige plaatsen wat weinig tijd, misschien daarom beter om 1 keer minder te stoppen, zodat je meer tijd hebt om het andere te bekijken. Het eten onderweg was zeker geslaagd.
This tour was excellent from start to finish. The young lady tour guide (13 July) and her driver were both excellent. Highly recommended!!
The content of the tour was outstanding particularly Laguna and the scenery in Tanananga. The start of the tour was a little unsatisfactory. We were picked up by a small bus in Puerto de La Cruz and taken to Santa Cruz for the start of the tour. Having briefly met the tour guide he just said that we had an hour to look around Santa Cruz with little briefing on what to look for. Something needs to be done about that. Otherwise it was a very enjoyable day.
It has been a very nice trip and interesting.
Buses need seating areas repaired
Excellent Driver and Guide
A fabulous full day of ifun with an amazingly competant driver and great tour guide who has exceptional knowledge of the Island old and new, funny, entertaining and very informative. We stopped in some beautiful spots and villages, FAB!!!
Excellent trip; the coach turned up exactly on time, the coach was clean and cool, and the host with the microphone (Fonz) was fantastic. Very well-informed and friendly.
My daughter and I really enjoyed our day out with your company. Very scenic drive in the mountains with an informative tour guide. Nice coffee stop en route and plenty of time for a mountain walk when we got to our destination. Our coach was very comfortable and we had a great driver! All in all a fabulous day out!
An interesting trip was marred by the bus driver taking the curves too fast. The dutch guide was helpful and considerate.
Everything was excellent
I am so pleased with our trip to Santa Crus, La Laguna and Taganana. Our guide and driver did a great job and we learnt a lot. After a short visit in Agana, the forrest, the driver mastered a situation heroically as we got a meeting with another, bigger bus.
Although we took a similar tour in 2017 with the same operator, we thoroughly enjoyed this revised Island Tour albeit that the weather was not very kind to us. The tour guide, Ponso, was very informative and knew his stuff. The coach driver did a magnificent job. A little bit od advice to those not taking the arranged lunch at Garachico, do not go to the round cafe in the square. The food is unsavoury and the beers are a rip off at 3.50 euros. It was a waste of money. However, we would recommend this tour to all.
Très belle excursion,guide très intéressante sachant capter son auditoire. Les deux aspects de l île traversée en une journée donnent une idée précise de tous les panoramas. Et la visite de Masca restera un souvenir exceptionnel tant la vue est majestueuse.
From start to finish a great time was had. Our driver Hosie was outstanding and made everyone feel safe on some of the best roads I have ever travelled on. Our guide was excellent and his knowledge was great overall a great trip
Day trip excursion great driving excellent person explaining the trip etc. Meal was ok not outstanding . Overall a lovely day out and an opportunity to see more of the island of Tenerife.
We went on the tour with Javier and our driver pedro on Saturday 29th January. We really enjoyed the imformative information given to us. Loved all the places we visited. Well organised trip. Maybe a little more time to explore the places we stopped might be an idea especially in Masca. I would highly recommed this company to do the excursion with. 10 out of 10.
Bezoek aan santa cruz is niet boeiend. De rest was prima alleen had de gids niet gevraagd of we allemaal in Het restaurant in taganana wilden eten. De tafels stonden voor ons allemaal al klaar dus had de gids ons allemaal al opgegeven. Vonden wij niet netjes daar de lunch niet bij de prijs inzat wat hij ons na de lunch vertelde om even af te rekenen.
I would suggest a bit more time along the park - next time I would go for a full day excursion. Thanks
Teide 1/2 day
At the port there was caios. No indication as to wgwew to go for embarkation tickets.
Thanks very much! Excellent organization. Very goog gide Patricia. She is great gide. Very interesting information.
We really enjoyed the day the driving was excellent and the guide friendly efficient and knowledgeable
Excellent tour and perfekt guida CE.
Good formula with clears explanation, not too much people in the bus, good driver and guide. We already done this visit few years ago! We enjoy it again.
And amazing guide, Fonz. Beautiful places. A bit too short time in Masca which was a stunning place
The trip was fine. The pick up bus was a few minutes late but arrived to take us to the National Park and Mt Teide. I did not realise that I had to pay extra for the cable car. This seemed to be more expensive than if I had paid myself at the ticket office. It would have been better if I had known this beforehand. But we enjoyed the trip.
Enjoyed the tour. It is recommended! Points that could be improved: 1) It must be clearly stated that when ordering tickets from the internet, the QR code provided in the email does not allow access to the ferry. Customers must pick up their boarding card for the ferry from the “Get Holiday” reps in the yellow shirts. We nearly missed the trip over this. 2) There were 3 coaches waiting to take us on La Palma. English, Spanish & German speaking. There was nothing to show which was which. Not even a sign saying “Volcano Tour”. A rep shouting & pointing in Spanish does not cut it I’m afraid. Addressing these two simple processes will remove stress from the trip.
A very impressive tour. The guide also spoke Dutch, which allowed us to understand all the information. The guide was competent and impressed with her story about the inhabitants of La Palma and how they experienced the eruption. She was also a resident herself. The tour also went to other parts and the meal that came with it was good. One point of improvement is dividing the group of people over the buses. It was not immediately clear which language belonged in which bus, which meant that people had to move around quite a bit. This could be improved by putting signs next to the bus which language is spoken in which bus. But otherwise a great tour.
very interesting tour , learned a lot about la palma and the "palmeras" good chauffeur and guide will visit la palma some other time for sure
Very good day
Good value for money for the whole day, the guide was very knowledgeable and gave a really good explanation of the facts. drive also very good. Only down side was the air con was poor an it was very hot on the coach.
The trip is confortable although it is mountain roads, guide was savy and helpful. Only drawback is that the sales office did not tell us that you need a confirmation in advance to be allowed to walk the last path to the top, and that you need cash for the cable car (37 EUR / person), but the trip itself was flawless.
We really enjoyed this tour. It was the perfect way to see the island and learn more about Tenerife, flora and fauna etc. Would have liked the opportunity to go all the way up to the volcano. We presumed we would have the time to do so. So be aware that this is a whistle stop tour that takes in a lot of stops. Would like to do a tour with less stops and more time to explore the places we visited. But it was very professionally presented. The tour guide was a lover of statistics and quizzes bless him. ???? Would recommend
Excellent information given by tour guide, Samba. All in different languages must be tiring but really helpful. Enjoy the day indeed. Also must give highest praise for the driver who drove so well through the winding roads from north to south Tenerife. Well done Frederick.
Sehr gut organisiert und ausführliche Erklärung über die Sterne. Es war ein großartiges Erlebnis. Ich würde jedes Empfehlen.
Unfortunately due to the night sky conditions, we were NOT able to view the night sky . We ONLY booked the trip for the night sky. Would would not have chose this trip but , as this was the only trip available via the hotel . We decided to book it as this was the reason for returning to Tenerife . So nice polite guide , coach very old and uncomfortable . Night sky experience cancelled .
C’était très beau C’est une excursion à faire absolument à Tenerife
I just want to express my gratitude to Massimo and Darius for a wonderful excursion. Massimo is a most wonderful driver who gave us great confidence when driving through the narrow mountain passes. He never showed any impatience with the other road users and it was a pleasure being a passenger on his bus. As for our our tour guide, Darius, what a wonderful person. He tirelessly explained all the interesting facts about each place we visited as well as taking the time to have a chat with us and answering our questions, plus, he did this in three languages! What a skill. He never showed any frustrations at having to switch to each language and his knowledge was impressive. I would definitely recommend your company seeing that you have such wonderful people that work for/ and with you. My compliments, we will be back!
It was lovely to see all of these places however I felt as though more free time could have been offered. I got told we would stay in each place for minimum 30 minutes AND have free time in each place. When we stopped at Garachico we were only there for just over 20 minutes and had to stick with the tour guide. I think this would have been the best place to have gone for lunch or explored ourselves as it was bigger. The option should be given. Although we got given over 1 hour 30 minutes free time in Icod, I think this should have been reduced to allow for more time at Garachico. Or even do not do the small stops at random places in between as this took up time. The tour guide seemed nice however nobody could ever hear what he was saying unless they were sat near him.
Nice tour of Teide, Masca, etc. A full day tour with lot of interesting things to see.
Timely, comfortable and informative. We enjoyed this trip so much. It was a long day. Our lunch was excellent. Bus driver great. Our tour guide worked so hard with three languages. Three suggestions: less narration on the way back. We wanted to rest! The tour in Laguna could have been free time. It was a lot of walking and not too interesting. Our lunch was very late, but we did love the restaurant. Hard work, great day. Thanks.
It was perfect. Our guide Alex, very friendly, explained to us a lot of very interesting things about Tenerife. The places visited allowed me to explore all the diversity of the island. I recommend this excursion.
great thanks to Joachim
We were collected on time from our hotel. Alex was very friendly and knowledgable and we had a great day out. I thoroughly recommend this excursion. The views on the winding roads are out of this world. We loved visiting Masca, Icod and Garachico. Thank you for an amazing day.
Very good organized excursion. Bus was on time, the driver was very kind and was driving us gently through mountain roads. Tourist guide Alex explained everything in very interesting and humoristic way. He looked after everyone. Also his English is excellent. 5 stars of 5
Early pick up without breakfast and not allowed to eat on the coach. Nearly 2 hours to do all the pick ups but once the tour commenced it was very good and the guide very informative. A bit annoying listening to the commentary in 3 languages but hey ho it was cheaper than Tui. Lunch at recommended Carmen restaurant very good value even though we felt a bit rushed. Could have done with at least 2 hrs for lunch stop. Driver professional and excellent, felt safe even on the mountain roads.
perfetto
Ottimo servizio. Abbiamo soprattutto apprezzato la guida in italiano.
No problems, fast customer support via mail und fast refund of Teide cable car tickets, because it was closed. Thanks for all.
Perfect excursion with Chantal and Bryan. We saw beautiful places with every coments we needed Thanks
Good excursion, we liked the route, as well as the frequent stops to take pictures or go to the bathroom. We especially liked the stop in El Teide national park, where we could walk around the rock formations. That was the main reason we picked this tour, as all others seemed to only go to the cable car station or drive through the park without stopping. Our main point of critique is that Icod de los Vinos was not a very great place for the lunch break, as there is little to see in the town except the dragon tree, for which a drive-through or very short stop for pictures would be enough. Instead, we really would have liked to have the lunch break in Garachico, which seemed to have a lot more atmosphere, and we really would have liked to have some more time there instead.
A very good trip
Very well organised - booking through this tour enabled us to get our cable car tickets as soon as we arrived which is a huge benefit
Uma excursão a volta da ilha vendo o essencial que a mesma nos pode oferecer. Posso mesmo dizer que o norte tem algumas semelhanças com a ilha da Madeira. No geral valeu a pena. Obrigada a nossa guia Chantale.
The pick up was late but the coach was good had to change to another coach in Santa Cruz. Due to us being late we only had 45 mins hear which was a shame. The main coach was very comfy and the Courier Chantelle was excellent she work had in 3 languages. Could have done with less time at Taganana as not much to see and more time at Santa Cruz beach which is lovley. Overall in was a nice day out but some slight tweeking could make it much better.
We had an amazing time ! Our tour guide Peter was so knowledgeable. We managed to explore so much in such little time. I’m so glade we did this as it was the highlight of our holiday
I just can rekommend This mist interesting and beautiful tour
гид замечательный, много информации об острове. Начали в 9, закончили после 4х. и конечно же , как в лучших традициях Востока,провоз по прикормленным точкам: бодега и 2 кафе
Hello. You did it all the best. I very happy from this day. Interesting excursion and great work from our driver. He is a professional. The all exursion was on time, it was pleased. Thanks a lot from all my family.
We have appreciate your helpline. Helpfull to Booking the Teide's excursion, like to explain the details of bus' stops and the route.
The day went very well. The guide gave a good deal of information about the areas we visited which was helpful and so you could understand what you were looking at in the moonscape. We took lunch with us and it is also helpful to have travel sickness tablets if you do not like winding roads. The schedule is timed tightly and we were late coming down the cable car because it can get very crowded and one minute the line was short to return the next it was massive. We had less than an hour at the top because it took so long going up and back. The views however were spectacular. It would have been good to have more time at the top so you could go further around the tracks. The driver was amazing. There is a lot to see in the National Park and this trip gives a good taster. It was nice not having to drive, so we could all enjoy the views.
Nicely organized trip. Timings were maintained properly. Descriptions by the guide during the trip was good. Customer service providers on telephone could be much more informative and explanatory. Providing general guidelines to tourists such as climate conditions, suggested clothing etc. could be useful.
This excursion was great. Nice landscapes, a lot of information, we had beautyfull views and nice wheather too.
Please provide the bus stop name and number to the customer. Makes it easier to find the bus stop at La enramada. Overall good tour.
Hi, Just wanna thank you for a great tour with our passionful guide who showed us the great love to this island! It was a meaningful day for us to be fascinated by the mountains and sea. We enjoyed very much! Thank you!
The Teide Masca Tour is highly recommended, because we visit beautiful places and the guide explains in a simple yet comprehensive way what is seeing. The landscapes are dreamy and remain forever in the retina of the visit.
We had a very fine Day!
the truth is that it is a very comprehensive tour which gives you time to see great things and discover some very interesting
Realmente instructivo, el recorrido por diferentes rutas en el Teide te enseñan las facetas y contrastes de la isla, tanto el guía, Ildefonso, como el conductor, Pedro, fueron encantadores. Muy bien relatado todo por parte del guía. Merece la pena.
La guía Marian y el conductor, Javi, excelentes. Hicieron del tour un viaje muy agradable. El recorrido muy bonito e instructivo. Lo único mejorable, lacomida. En Pueblo Chico el menú es caro para la poca variedad y calidad. Para mi parecer, se puede cambiar el sitio donde hacer el almuerzo.
Realmente excepcional. Merece la pena no perder la ocasión de ver la puesta de sol. El personal muy profesional y el bufette ofrecido extraordinario.
Bought half day teide tour price was good driver and guide good. BUT tour says teide tour but only get 15 min. on teide itself. More based on sight seeing around teide then up teide.
Exceptional commentary, superb driving skills ( especially around Masca hairpin bends!) and a well planned tour with a lovely, inexpensive Canarian lunch! Thank you Joachim - you and Carlos did us proud :) Tour date - May 25 2015
It is possible to increase stay time on a volcano
Thanks to all staff, especially Agnes, the excursion was just great! Also: I lost my wallet in the bus, it was returned very quickly.
Wonderful full day tour with a very nice guide (I think his name was Peter). On this day, we have been able to discover the island of Tenerife. highly Recommended
Exceeded our expectations not only for the sunset at the Teide that is truly worth seeing and contemplating for its lush beauty, but also by observing the stars, the guide and the typical Canarian dinner was exquisite. The tour itself was excellent. The only thing I regret is that the cold and the wind did not allow us to see the sunset in its entirety. Thank you very much . And please continue.
Thanks for the voucher. We did go on the trip yesterday and it was the best trip ever, the guide tour was fantastic, very knowledgeable and he took good care of all of us. It was the best experience in Tenerife and just wanted to let you know how much we appreciated it.
