Show full review ➤ Seeing Teide from the window of our hotel in Puerto de La Cruz we've googled and found this tour with pickup just about within 5 min walk from our hotel and decided to book it. It was the right decision and it is so surprising the island is soo different at every corner, but Teide was above any our expectations!!! You feel like on another planet. A good idea to book it with Teide cable car. Unfortunately, on the day of our tour the cable car was closed due to strong winds near the summit, so we've got refunded our cable car tickets. Special THANKS to our guide Paolo who made the tour a smooth one and explained a lot about geology and history of Teide and Tenerife. Bullet-proof 5 stars!!! Emmy and Nils. Hide review
