Discover the breathtaking Anaga Rural Park, a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve on Tenerife, one of the oldest natural spaces in the Canary Islands, with relict vegetation from the Tertiary era, misty trails, and panoramic views blending rugged mountains with the sparkling Atlantic Ocean. Picking you up in the morning from your accommodation, we’ll first head to the Anaga mountain range. During your trek, we’ll visit numerous observation decks, travel through an ancient preserved forest and visit a local village in which the inhabitants built their homes in caves. The highlight of the trip, though, will be a visit to the village of Benijo, where we will taste local Canarian cuisine and visit one of the most vibrant beaches on the island. Optional easy 2 km / 40-min walk through El Bosque de los Enigmas. UNESCO Biosphere Reserve: one of the last prehistoric forests in Europe, home to the continent’s densest endemics. Only 30-60 minutes away — pure contrast to the rest of Tenerife.

What you'll see and do
Tenerife
We will begin our journey with a short drive to reach the first viewpoint in Anaga (ANG). Depending on where you are staying in Tenerife, this stage will take no more than one hour.
60 minutes here
We will be passing by the first capital of Tenerife. Today, it stands as the island's largest historical center and is a UNESCO World Heritage site in its entirety. It would be a missed opportunity not to drive through its beautiful streets or stop for a moment to truly connect with the rich history of the Canary Islands.
20 minutes here
Mirador Pico Del Ingles
At this location, we will make two distinct stops at spectacular viewpoints. One of them offers a stunning 360° panoramic view on clear days, providing a full perspective of the island's rugged beauty. You will also have the opportunity to walk through the relict laurel forest. This is a unique chance to see with your own eyes the ancient endemic species that have survived on Tenerife since before the last Ice Age. It is a living museum of natural history.
30 minutes here · Admission included
Mirador de Jardina
Our first stop will be at this panoramic viewpoint. The drive here usually takes about 30 minutes from the Santa Cruz de Tenerife Cruise Port.
20 minutes here · Admission included
Parque Rural de Anaga
We will definitely visit a hidden settlement with views reminiscent of Switzerland. Here, the local residents live exclusively in dwellings carved into the cliffs. You will also have the opportunity to visit a small local restaurant and taste traditional Canarian cuisine.
60 minutes here · Admission included
Las Montanas de Anaga
Driving along the winding roads of Anaga, through natural tunnels formed by the lush vegetation, is a truly special experience. Along our way, we will make many unique and memorable stops.
60 minutes here · Admission included
Taganana
This spot is home to three of the most beautiful black volcanic sand beaches in Tenerife. The waves here are consistently strong, but walking along the shore or even playing in the surf is always a fantastic experience. Even when it is raining up in the Anaga mountains, it is usually comfortable here, and above all, incredibly beautiful. Benijo Beach, located right here, is considered a powerful "energy spot." Don’t forget to bring your swimwear, as we will have plenty of time to enjoy this location.
90 minutes here
San Andres
We will conclude our visit to Anaga by driving down the mountain serpentines, gradually descending from an altitude of 900 meters to sea level. On our way, we will pass through this cozy town. Many people compare its views to the famous hillside villages of Italy, beautifully perched on the mountain slopes.
30 minutes here
Santa Cruz de Tenerife
Our route back takes us through the current capital of Tenerife. It is a modern and beautiful city, with a particularly well-developed port area. We will also pass by the famous Opera House, which has become a symbol of Tenerife, designed by the renowned architect Santiago Calatrava.

Unforgettable trip!
First things first: this was a truly memorable experience. The views were absolutely breathtaking, and we were lucky to have a clear sky with perfectly mild weather. Since it was my first time exploring this region, the tour offered an ideally balanced pace—active enough to feel rewarding, but never overwhelming. We made several stops along the way, which gave us plenty of time to rest, take photos, and fully appreciate the stunning surroundings. Overall, the logistics were flawless, from the punctual pick-up to the friendly communication throughout the entire trip.

Great trip👍👍👍
If you need a mental reset, do yourself a favor and book this experience. Eugenio showed me the most enchanting places on the island. It was so therapeutic to just slow down, take in the scents of nature, and enjoy the quiet moments. It felt like a beautiful sensory overload. As someone with a hectic work life, this was a much-needed escape that helped me find my balance again. Truly grateful for this time.👍👍👍

Amazing experience
What a fantastic day—it completely blew my expectations out of the water! Having this as a private group tour made it even better. We ended up exploring hidden spots we never would have discovered on our own. We got to see a huge variety of sights and sample so much amazing local food. Plus, our guide was absolutely wonderful and took such good care of us. Quick tip for future travelers: the mountain roads are super twisty, so definitely pack some motion sickness pills just in case

Spectacular Trip
Our trip was absolutely incredible from beginning to end and it was the perfect way to wrap up our last day in Tenerife! Alex is a true professional with amazing local knowledge, especially when it comes to the hidden gems in the north of the island. Every single stop was fantastic—from the breathtaking Anaga Mountains and the spot-on authentic food recommendations to the relaxing beach at the end. We also really wanted to include a short hike, and Alex was kind enough to adapt the itinerary for us. The day totally exceeded our expectations, and I'd highly recommend him to anyone looking to discover the island’s beautiful natural treasures

Great day out
Despite the rain showers we had a great day out with Alex who showed us a side of Tenerife we knew nothing about! The natural beauty was spectacular and breathtaking. Nothing was too much trouble for Alex, and we thoroughly recommend him as a knowledgeable, personable and friendly guide. Not to mention official photographer!😊

Anaga Hidden Gems Private Relaxed Tour: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Tenerife.
How much does Anaga Hidden Gems Private Relaxed Tour cost?
+
Prices start at $208 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Tenerife usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Anaga Hidden Gems Private Relaxed Tour take?
+
Plan for about 8 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Tenerife is not rushed.
Is Anaga Hidden Gems Private Relaxed Tour worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 65 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 12 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Tenerife, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Anaga Hidden Gems Private Relaxed Tour?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Anaga Hidden Gems Private Relaxed Tour suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 8-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Anaga Hidden Gems Private Relaxed Tour?
+
Around 4 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Tenerife can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Tenerife and add a light layer if any part of the 8-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Anaga Hidden Gems Private Relaxed Tour start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Tenerife within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Tenerife?
+
On Outty we rank every Tenerife experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Whale watching & listening Eco-Catamaran Tour with Snacks &Drinks, 3-hour Whale and Dolphin Watching and Listening Tour, Teide National Park Sunset & Stargazing Coach Tour – Hotel Pickup. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Tenerife?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Tenerife?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
