Overview

Escape the busy resorts and explore Tenerife’s hidden gems on a private day tour with an English-speaking driver in a comfortable, air-conditioned vehicle. Your customizable journey begins in Taganana, one of the island’s oldest villages, nestled in the green slopes of the Anaga Mountains. Surrounded by cliffs and ocean views, it charms with traditional houses and a tranquil atmosphere. Continue through Candelaria, a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve of ancient laurel forests, misty ridges, and winding scenic roads—ideal for nature lovers and photographers. End in Anaga Country Park and visit the Basilica of Our Lady of Candelaria, a sacred site honoring Tenerife’s patron saint, where striking statues of Guanche kings line the seafront square.
