Great tour and very accommodating
We had a great experience with Angel. He kept us on track and very accommodating for all on the trip. We had a great tour and highly recommend.

Spectacular Views at Teide Natl Park, Plus Charming Historic Towns
Had good communication beforehand from our driver/guide Angel, and met him as instructed at clock tower near the cruise terminal. This was a small group of 8 in a large van (6 from same cruise ship). Angel was friendly, funny, chatty and very informative. We went to Mt. Teide first, a wise move to beat the crowds. Just know it's about a 45-min drive up a very curvy but smooth mountain road through the clouds then above clouds and tree line for blue sky views and amazing changes in terrain! Made a few stops at amazing overlooks then 1 hour at the park's coffee shop and museum area. Next another 45-min drive down the mountain by a different route, first to former capital and charming historic town of LaOrotava. We had 45 min free time there, then on to another historic town, LaLagunda near Santa Cruz, for 1 hour of free time. Driver was kind enough to drop us off at cruise shuttle bus to avoid a long walk with heavy packages. Total time 6.5 hr. It was an enjoyable day and great way to see some of the north, south, and central parts of this beautiful island. Note--water and lunch are not included but can be purchased at any of the stops.

A “rocky” day
Angel, our guide, taught us a lot about the formation of the island and its volcanoes. The scenery is amazing, but if you don’t like heights, this trip might not be for you. Our bus driver did an excellent job in navigating the curvy and narrow roads.
via Viator
Great excursion! Great guide!
The excursion was very good. We really enjoyed it. We would like to let others know that the meeting point was not as close nor was it viewable from our ship, as the instructions indicated. This is due to the fact that our ship was not docked where other ships usually dock. We managed to find the clock tower, thankfully, with plenty of time to spare. Our guide, Angel, was awesome!
via Viator
Great day tour from cruise ship.
We loved our full day tour with Angel. He shared his knowledge and love of Tenerife with us and we enjoyed our day tour to the National Park, Orotava, and La Laguna from the cruise port.

Why this scores 70
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Teide essential Shore Excursion VIP TOUR: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Tenerife.
How much does Teide essential Shore Excursion VIP TOUR cost?
+
Prices start at $85 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 Teide essential Shore Excursion VIP TOUR take?
+
Plan for about 6 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 Teide essential Shore Excursion VIP TOUR worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 70 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.8/5 across 23 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most popular in Tenerife, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Teide essential Shore Excursion VIP 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 Teide essential Shore Excursion VIP TOUR suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 6-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Teide essential Shore Excursion VIP TOUR?
+
Around 8 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 6-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Teide essential Shore Excursion VIP 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, Group Surfing Lesson at Playa de las Américas, Tenerife, 3-hour Whale and Dolphin Watching and Listening Tour. 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.
