VOLCANO & MOUNT TEIDE PRIVATE TOUR IN TENERIFE - VIP PRIVATE TOUR

Description


Volcano & Mount Teide Private Tour in Tenerife - VIP Private Tour

During the Tenerife volcano tour with private experienced driver/guide, speaking your language, we will go through and make stop in Vilaflor which’s the highest village in Tenerife, in National Park El Teide with possibility to lift to the volcano to the height of 3550m over the sea lev el (the volcano El Teide is 3718m high).

If we start from the Southern coast, our first stop during Tenerife volcano Teide private tour will be in Vilaflor village. Vilaflor is the highest village in Spain and located on the altitude of nearly 1500m over the sea level. Popular legend has it that Vilaflor owes its name to a Spanish Captain of the conquistadores, Pedro de Bracamonte, who upon seeing a beautiful Guanche girl in the forest above the town exclaimed “¡Vi la flor de Chasna!” – I have seen the flower of Chasna (the town’s former name). We mainly make a short stop to accommodate to the higher altitude, but in Vilaflor we can also taste a perfect local coffee from Tenerife called Barraquito. Just in a few minutes drive after Vilaflor village we do another stop to see the oldest and biggest Canarian pine tree called Pino Gordo – Fat Pine. This tree is located in a place protected by nature from strong winds and that’s why it survived so long time. We do photos and continue our Teide private tour straight to the Teide National Park.

As we are entering Teide National Park you will clearly see we are entering into the biggest single crater in the world with the Mount Teide located in the middle. We do a few photo stops and at least 2 times longer stops in the most scenic places where you will have occasion to do short walks in an amazing scenery from another planet. On the Teide private tour, you will cross whole the crater, we will come close to the Teide Observatory with its scenic and amazing views and then we cross the Teide National Park again having the possibility to see the things from a different perspective. We will see red and black lava flows, including 5000 to 6000 years old the youngest lava field of Teide.

The peak of the volcano with its crater is closed to the mass tourists and you will need a special permit to conquer the peak (it will take you about 1-2 hours and the additional payment of 50€). Depend on your hotel location we can return to the Southern shore by another road taking photo sessions by National Park Chinyero and giant and majestic cliffs of Los Gigantes. Volcano & Mount Teide private tour in Tenerife allows you to climb to the crater to visit the highest point in the Atlantic Ocean and Spain, please inform us and we will organize your permit. In this case, please, book your Volcano Teide private tour as earlier as possible, because the number of permits is very limited. If you wish to climb the summit, we suggest booking your Teide private tour at least 3 to 4 months in advance. In the case, if there’s too late to have a permit, you still can book an option to use Teide cable car along with our private tour which will take you nearly to the summit, to the altitude of 3550m.

This tour could be prolonged for about 2 hours walk in the peaceful and relaxing Canarian pine by visiting National Park Chinyero for an additional fee.

COMMENT FROM YOUR PRIVATE TOUR GUIDE of Tenerife Volcano Tour:

“This is one of the shortest tours offered by Tenerife Host and it’s a good tour for people who cannot pay more time to see the other parts of the island or for those who want to do a few tours, paying more time to each destination. I will be happy to show you the best of the Teide National Park and make your Teide private tour interesting, relaxing and full of new experiences.”

COMMENTS FROM OUR CUSTOMERS who took the Volcano Teide Private Tour in Tenerife:

“Our family, consisting of 4 adults and 3 children, booked a private volcano tour with Gregory and it exceeded all expectations. After a disappointing Touristen tour with a large bus and an hour of picking up guests from many other hotels, we decided to pay for a private driver for our next excursion. It was worth paying extra. With 3 children, it was possible to have many stops to acclimatize ourselves for the 3500 meters above sea level. Gregory shared lots of information with us about the region, making it interesting for the adults. We also had ice cream and bathroom stops for the children. Everybody was happy. Gregory organized fast-pass tickets for the cable-car, cutting down waiting times with the children. He dropped us off and picked us up, cutting down time which most people spent searching for parking spaces. He took photos for us and introduced us to the local coffee. He even provided us with lots of bottles of water for our well being. We can highly recommend a tour with Gregory. Not only was he informative for the adults, he was patient, charming, happy and caring for the children. He could have just driven us to the volcano and back, however, he took the time to show us the oldest pine tree, the almond trees, the Los Gigantes cliffs. Above and beyond what we expected. If we ever come to Tenerife again, we would definitely book him again! Martin Teuscher and family from Switzerland.”

“Excellent VIP tour. It was relaxing and comfortable with many stops for brilliant photo opportunities. It was worth taking a larger van and VIP tickets for a cable car.” “I found Tenerife Host online after reading positive reviews on Cruise Critic. I booked a full day tour and Gregory was great. He was waiting for us at the cruise port on time. Prior to our tour, we asked if he could take to see the Pan Am/KLM memorial which was near the airport. He managed to find it which meant a lot to us as we used to work for Pan Am. The drive to Mt Teide was scenic and we made multiple stops to take pictures along the way. Gregory explained different areas during our journey and was very knowledgeable. Before returning to the cruise port, we stopped by a local cafe to have a typical cup of coffee which was very nice. We recommend Tenerife Host private tours to anyone who visits Tenerife and would like a private tour.”

We found Gregory using a Google search to look for a local tour guide. We booked a full day Mt. Teide tour for two adults and three children, aged 7, 5 and 2. We opted for the larger 7 seater vehicle for extra comfort and space. We booked via the Tripspoint website which did cause us to be a little hesitant to start with because the site seemed huge, with lots of tours and we couldn’t be sure who our tour guide would be. Most of the Mt. Teide tours seem to mention Gregory so we booked anyways and hoped that it was Gregory who would show us around. Within an hour, Gregory called me to confirm details and bookings. I immediately informed him that we are a safety conscious family and would like children car sets to be available. He was completely understanding and assured us that it would not be a problem. On the day of the trip, Gregory arrived right on time with the three appropriate children car seats as promised. The day was brilliant with as many stops as we wanted to cater for the kids who do not travel well. Gregory was very patient when our two year was just crying constantly throughout the journey. We were picked up at 1100 and returned at around 1800. Gregory drove a little slower so that it was more comfortable for the children. He was really knowledgeable and we learnt a lot about Tennerife and Mt. Teide. We will be sure to book another trip with Gregory when we return. He has also given us some hotel recommendations for the next time. I thoroughly recommend him. As an aside, I think it would be good for Gregory if he had his own website and when it comes to payment, it could take us to the Tripspoint / booking page. We were very close to not booking because we were after Gregory specifically and it wasn’t obvious we would have gotten him via Tripspoint.  Hide review

He had a set tour in place, but adapted the tour to our wants and needs. There were just two of us, and the pace he set was comfortable and we were never rushed. There were numerous stops where we could explore the landscape, or simply take photos. I highly recommend Gregory for this tour.  Hide review

We booked the trip last minute at the end of an amazing family holiday. This made it impossible for Gregory to hire a big enough vehicle for our family of 6. However Gregory organised for another guide to join us and for us to travel in 2 cars. Both guides were full of very interesting information and made the journey relaxing but incredibly informative. We felt very lucky to have such a great experience which topped off an amazing 10 day stay. The volcano was amazing and being able to travel in complete comfort, stopping were we wanted made it feel as if we were in complete control of the trip. I can not recommend Gregory highly enough and we will definitely be hiring his services again should we visit Tenerife again in the future.  Hide review

We had an explanation on the history of Tenerife, the indigenous people and the Spanish conquistadors. We stopped for a coffee before visiting the oldest pine tree. The cable car took us to nearly the summit with fantastic views. Gregory was waiting on our return and took us for lunch at the highest restaurant in Spain. We then went to see more rock formations before a trip through old villages and back to the hotel. The advantage of a private tour is the personal attention, no stress re timing, and adaptable itinerary. We were so impressed we arranged a second tour later in the week.  Hide review
