Tenerife · MASCA GORGE HIKES
Six hundred metres of ravine, a beach with no road and a boat home. Entry is capped and booked ahead, so these 12 walks are compared on what they include — permit, helmet, boat, transfer — and how hard the day really is.
Full-day Tenerife coach tour to Teide National Park, Vilaflor, Icod de los Vinos, Garachico, and Masca Valley, with hotel pickup.
“most of the time spent on the coach. not enough time to explore on own. too much emphasis on lunches and coffee”
Tenerife hike above Masca through enchanted forests and Teide viewpoints with hotel pickup, a picnic, trekking poles, and digital photos.
“The trip was extremely well organised with great communication before hand. Massimo collected us at the pick up point on time and was an excellent guide thoughout. He was very friendly and knowlegable, pointing out lots of interesting plants and fungi along the way. He showed consideration for everyone in our fairly large group and even carried all our snacks and some extra clothing (as it was very cold on the hike today). We had a wonderful adventure exploring the hills and forest above Masca. The views of Mount Teide and surrounding area were amazing. I would highly recomend this trip and the company for guided hikes in Tenerife”
A guided 5 km descent through Barranco de Masca, then a boat ride beneath Los Gigantes cliffs, with transport and permits included.
“It was really great treking and very enjoyable half day trip. It is moderately difficult but rather short, 5 km long descent. We were taken by taxi to Masca and after 15 min short break we went down through the valley. It is very picturesqe and beautiful. Eduardo was great, friendly and share the knowledge about Masca gorge with our group. We were taken back by boat to Puerto de Santiago. Be amazed and enjoy that trek. Thank you Eduardo.”
A full-day Tenerife tour to Mt. Teide, the UNESCO volcanic park, Icod’s 1,000-year-old dragon tree, Garachico, and Masca Valley.
“Longer stops and maybe packed lunch rather than a sit down meal thus giving longer time at the lunch stop. The guide and driver were exceptional”

“Amazing sight to see Masca Valley, our young guide was brilliant”
Guided Masca Gorge descent with a small group, certified multilingual guide, plus a water taxi to Los Gigantes and big cliff views.
“Marie was an exceptional guide, always explaining things and communicating clearly. I’ve learned a lot about the plant life and geological phenomena in Masca gorge on this trip. Marie didn’t hurry anyone, but was setting a good pace, since there were other people scheduled after our own group. Accordingly, we didn’t see many people on the hike, which added to the atmosphere. Lots of time for taking pictures. Since it is now mandatory to use public busses, you’re dependent on them arriving on time, but that’s no fault of the agency. We’ve seen an amazing natural scenery and it was well worth our time.”

Guided small-group Masca Valley buggy tour in Tenerife with scenic drives, photo viewpoints, Pirate Village stops, and optional pickup.
“Un grand merci pour cette superbe balade en buggy à travers la magnifique vallée de Masca ! Les paysages étaient tout simplement époustouflants, un vrai régal pour les yeux. Mention spéciale pour notre guide Eugènio, qui a été incroyablement gentil, pleins de bons conseils et très attentionné tout au long du parcours. Cinq étoiles bien méritées ! Seul petit regret : la balade ne permettait pas de faire du off-road, ce qui aurait vraiment permis de profiter du buggy à 100 %. Malgré cela, une expérience inoubliable ! Merci encore !”

“When booking this excursion, it was mostly for my partners benefit as I knew he’d enjoy driving the ATV 4x4 but I am not a driver and was expecting to be a little bored but I couldn’t have been more wrong!”
Every kind of day out on the island, and the best of each.
