Professional review

Criteria reviewed by Tenerife guides

The basic 3, 5 and 7-day structures and the planner’s criteria draw on the experience of guides who work in Tenerife. The final proposal must always be adapted to the date, the group, access and actual conditions.

The value of local support

Four reasons to travel with a guide

01

A workable route

The guide plans real distances and timings from your accommodation, without turning the day into a race.

02

Adapting to conditions

Weather, access and permits can change. A professional adjusts the proposal when necessary.

03

Safety and the right level

On trails and in specialist activities, the route and the effort must match the group’s fitness.

04

Context that transforms the visit

Landscape, history and culture take on a different meaning when someone local knows how to tell the story.

Choose your starting point

How many days do you have?

These are ideas for inspiration, not instructions for exploring the island without support. The guide will specify access, order and logistics.

Guide and transport

Getting there is not the same as understanding the place

For towns and cities you can use public transport. In the high mountains, on rural roads and trails or for night-time activities, a guided experience with pick-up makes the logistics easier and adds safety and context.

See guided experiences

Base 1

Santa Cruz or La Laguna

Good for heritage and urban connections. Ask about guides and transport to explore Anaga with a suitable proposal.

Base 2

Puerto de la Cruz

Practical for the north. You can book guided days to Teide, Anaga or other parts of the island.

Base 3

Costa Adeje or Los Cristianos

Offers a wide range of professional sea activities, Teide trips and full-day guided excursions.

A tailored proposal

What pace should your guide know about?

The length of your trip does not determine how many things you should do. Sharing your pace helps the professional plan a realistic day.

Gentle

One area a day

Few stops, long meals and room to improvise. Ideal with young children or if you want to rest.

Balanced

One route and one experience

Combines landscape with one main activity without filling every hour of the day.

Active

Trails and full days

For those who enjoy walking and do not mind an early start, always alternating the effort.
