This is not just any tour: it is the unique opportunity to discover La Palma through an itinerary personally designed by Basso Lanzone, an official guide with years of experience in the Canary Islands. Each stop has been chosen to showcase the most authentic and spectacular of the island in a single day. We begin by visiting its charming capital, Santa Cruz de La Palma, with colonial streets, wooden balconies and a unique atmosphere. From there, we will climb to the viewpoint of La Cumbrecita, in the Caldera de Taburiente National Park, for breathtaking views. The most striking moment comes in Tacande, where we will approach the Tajogaite volcano (Old Summit), born on September 19, 2021, walking the road built on lava. You will see with your own eyes the strength of nature and the area where an entire neighborhood disappeared.

    Good View of the volcano

    The weather wasn't the best on the day, but we still got some great views, particularly of the volcano and lava flow. We were going to have a coffee at a market but it was closed, and we were left to our own devices in a not particularly interesting part of the island while we waited for the bus to arrive. Also, where we stopped for lunch was just near a supermarket with not much to see. A good day out and I enjoyed it, but it could have been better.

    Response from the operator: Thank you for your review and for your honest comments. We’re glad you enjoyed the volcano and lava flow views, even with difficult weather. We’re sorry some waiting time and stops did not feel ideal; we’ll use your feedback to improve the flow of the day. La Palma is a unique island, and we always aim to offer a well-guided, reliable experience with GetHoliday.

    I took this tour in March...

    I took this tour in March 2025. The views were amazing. I had enough time to visit these beautiful places. I would recommend this tour to anyone.

    Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your wonderful review! 😊 Even after the rare rainfall, La Gomera still gave us a fantastic day. I’m very happy you enjoyed discovering the island, its history and traditions, and that you felt well looked after throughout the experience. It was a real pleasure sharing the day with you. Hope to welcome you back to the Canary Islands again!

    A good day off from the sunbed

    Great day out despite the early start and a little sea sickness on the way. That was odd because the sea conditions both ways looked similar, but on the outbound journey we experienced significantly more movement of the ship. From then on all great: organisation, views, pace, guide, driver, bus and late lunch stop. Persuaded us to come back to la Palma for a much longer visit. One thing i did note was that the maximum participants was stated to be 59. Our trip had around 20 and I suspect that significantly more people would adversely impact the experience.

    Response from the operator: Thank you for your thoughtful review! We’re glad that, after the ferry crossing, you enjoyed the organisation, views, pace, guide, driver and lunch stop. La Palma often has that effect: one day makes you want to return for longer. We also note your comment about group size; a more personal experience is exactly the standard we aim for at GetHoliday.

    Fantastic day

    The Las Palmas excursion packed diverse experiences into one fantastic day. From the ferry ride to exploring the historic capital, experiencing the dramatic volcanic landscapes, and enjoying a delicious local lunch, every moment was well organized and well spent.

    Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We’re delighted you enjoyed such a complete day in La Palma, from the ferry journey and historic capital to the dramatic volcanic landscapes and local lunch. This island offers a powerful mix of history, nature and emotion, and at GetHoliday we work to make every moment well organised, meaningful and memorable.

    La Palma Volcano Tour

    Rosa our guide was very knowledgeable and concise. The tour and the emotion she conveyed made for a great tour. Would have liked more time in Santa Cruz and maybe seen where the lava flow actually reached the sea but maybe we may have missed other parts. Worth the trip.

    Response from the operator: Thank you very much, James, for your detailed review and for your kind words about Rosa! I’m very pleased to know that you enjoyed the tour and especially the knowledge and passion she brought to the experience. La Palma has an extraordinary recent volcanic history, and conveying not only the facts but also what the eruption meant for the island and its people is an important part of the visit. I completely understand that you would have liked more time in Santa Cruz and also to see the area where the lava flows reached the sea. On a day trip from Tenerife, the ferry schedules and the distances between the different areas of La Palma unfortunately force us to make choices. Adding more time in one place would inevitably mean leaving another important part of the itinerary out. For that reason, we try to create the best possible balance between the volcanic area, the landscapes, the history of the island and Santa Cruz within the time available. Thank you again for saying that the excursion was worth the trip. We really appreciate it and hope to welcome you again on another GetHoliday experience in the Canary Islands. Best regards, Basso Lanzone GetHoliday Tenerife

    From Tenerife: Tajogaite Volcano, La Cumbrecita and Casco Antiguo: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Tenerife.

    How much does From Tenerife: Tajogaite Volcano, La Cumbrecita and Casco Antiguo cost?

    +

    Prices start at $160 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 From Tenerife: Tajogaite Volcano, La Cumbrecita and Casco Antiguo take?

    +

    Plan for about 11 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 From Tenerife: Tajogaite Volcano, La Cumbrecita and Casco Antiguo worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 76 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.7/5 across 108 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 From Tenerife: Tajogaite Volcano, La Cumbrecita and Casco Antiguo?

    +

    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 From Tenerife: Tajogaite Volcano, La Cumbrecita and Casco Antiguo suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 11-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book From Tenerife: Tajogaite Volcano, La Cumbrecita and Casco Antiguo?

    +

    Around 38 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 11-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does From Tenerife: Tajogaite Volcano, La Cumbrecita and Casco Antiguo 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.

    What happens to From Tenerife: Tajogaite Volcano, La Cumbrecita and Casco Antiguo if the weather is bad?

    +

    It generally runs rain or shine, so dress for the forecast in Tenerife. Standard cancellation terms apply: free cancellation up to 24 hours before the start.

    What do travelers say about From Tenerife: Tajogaite Volcano, La Cumbrecita and Casco Antiguo?

    +

    Across 108 reviews averaging 4.7 out of 5, recurring themes include the guide, food and drink, knowledge and storytelling. Travelers single out the guide as the reason the experience works.
