This was one of the best things I've done during my stay on Tenerife. If you are interested in nature and/or stargazing, I highly recommend this tour! Elena, our guide, was so knowledgeable that we've learnt a bit of geography, history, and astronomy from her (and her sense of humour is great, by the way 😉). Rosando's driving was amazing, and we were on time for every step of the excursion. Honestly, everything was just perfect and it became an unforgettable experience!
