The Anaga Mountains in northeast Tenerife form a spectacular backdrop for this daytrip in a minivan. On this town and country tour, you'll venture into the magical Mercedes laurel forest, discover La Laguna – considered one of the island's prettiest towns – and visit Candelaria Basilica.

We'll set off on our adventure around Tenerife into one of Tenerife's most emblematic places – Anaga Mountains. This volcanic range house the Mercedes laurel forest as well as cacti and native dragon trees. And you'll experience it all up close in a minivan, which can travel along noodle-thin mountain roads. Lunch is in a homestead in Taganana.

You'll also head to La Laguna, declared a UNESCO site, where you can walk among big-windowed, pastel-coloured homes. Along the way, you'll also journey through the Tegueste wine country .There are pit stops at the impossibly golden Las Teresitas beach and the waterfront Candelaria Basilica, and quick zoom through the capital, Santa Cruz.

Very rushed one hour in la Laguna is not enough time to see anything pointless stop at a beach for fifteen minutes on the van off the van if you have mobility issues lunch was not good tough pork chop bread not presented well just a chunk on a napkin last stop was not enough time as well not good value for money

The driver Alex was top,and we learned a lot of him about Tenerife.😀👍. So its coud not be better, so thanks for a lovely day 😀🌺🌺

The tour was good. The scenery was wonderful but we could have spent longer in La Laguna - maybe one less beach stop would have given us more time in the town. The tour guide was excellent and full of interesting information. He was friendly and very helpful. The meal and restaurant awful. The food was cold and not very nice. The staff in the restaurant were not very friendly or engaging and the wine was appalling.

The guide was very knowledgeable and gave us all the information in a friendly way. Unfortunately the driver who picked us up at the hotel was 20 minutes late and drove very fast to the meeting point which was disconcerting and unnecessary as when we got there we had to wait for other people from other places. We would have preferred more time in La Laguna and Candelaria rather than visiting beaches but we understand you have to cater for a wide range of interests.

Staff very good and informative Meal very poor on both trips Would have rather had the option to not eat .

Wir waren rund herum mehr als zufreiden. Das was man uns gezeigt und erzählt hat war einfach perfekt. Der Gaid war ausgesprochen super!!! Danke nochmal dafür
