Routes
Tenerife North Island Tour or West Route — Tenerife Day Trips Compared
North routes add Icod and Garachico; west routes add Masca and the Los Gigantes cliffs — most full days do Teide plus one of the two.
North route
Teide → La Orotava valley → Icod de los Vinos and its dragon tree → Garachico, rebuilt after the 1706 eruption.
West route
Teide → Masca village at about 650 m on the TF-436 → Teno and, on some tours, the Los Gigantes cliffs.
Both in one day
the grand tour and the Teide, Icod, Garachico and Masca day cover the two, at the cost of more time on the road.
Before you book
Before You Book Tenerife Day Trips
The day is long and high — plan for cold air at the top and several hours on the road.
Altitude
Teide National Park stops sit above 2,000 m; bring a warm layer.
Instead: a half-day Teide tour if you dislike long altitude days.
Road time
Three or four stops in 8–9 hours; if long drives tire you, a 5-hour half day is the alternative.
Lunch
Usually a stop with paid lunch; bring snacks if you're on a budget.
Masca's road
During fire-risk alerts only small licensed coaches are allowed on the TF-436 — a tour may adjust its route.
Not for limited mobility
The grand tour lists itself as unsuitable for wheelchair users; a private tour is the alternative.

Still choosing?Teide and north grand tour — ★ 4.6 from 3,133 reviews.Check dates — from €58
What is the best Tenerife day trip?
For most visitors, a full-day coach tour of Teide and the north — Teide National Park, Icod de los Vinos, Garachico and Masca — from about €58. It covers the island's best-known places in one day and has more than 3,000 reviews at 4.6★. For a higher-rated day on a similar route, tours from €75 rate 4.7–4.9★.
How long is a Tenerife island tour?
Most full-day island tours last 8 to 9.5 hours including pickup, with three or four stops. Half-day versions take about 5 hours and usually cover Teide only, or one area plus a town.
How much does a Tenerife island tour cost?
Coach tours cost €57–60 per person. Pricier days, including a VIP day from Arona, cost €75–199. Lunch is usually not included.
Does a Tenerife island tour include Teide?
Most of the 11 island tours on this page visit Teide National Park, usually with Icod, Garachico or Masca. A few, such as the nature-and-culture half day, follow other routes — check each tour's route before you book.
Is a full day guided island tour of Tenerife worth it?
Yes if you have no car or only one free day: it covers Teide and the north coast without driving mountain roads. If you have a car and three days, driving yourself gives more time at each stop.
Which Tenerife day trips leave from the north?
One tour on this page departs from Santa Cruz; the others mostly collect from meeting points in the south. The meeting points are listed when you book — check one is near your hotel.
Can I see Teide and Masca in one day?
Yes. Several island tours combine both, and the Teide and Masca valley tour focuses on just these two, from €56 for 9.5 hours.
Are lunch and drinks included on Tenerife day trips?
On most coach tours, no — there is a lunch stop where you pay for what you eat. Some pricier tours include food; check the inclusions of each tour.
Is a Tenerife island tour suitable for children?
Most are, but a 9-hour day with altitude can be long for small children. A half-day Teide tour or a 5-hour nature tour is the easier option.
What should I bring on a Tenerife island tour?
A warm layer for Teide, sunscreen, water, comfortable shoes and cash or a card for lunch.
