Top 10 Historical & Heritage Tours in Tenerife, Canary Islands

March 20, 2022 Leida Jutras

Tribal Terenife still shows influence from the aboriginal Gaunches people. Visitors clamber to conquer Mount Teide (Spain’s tallest peak) and to stretch out on the sands of Los Gigantes. Squawk hello to the playful parrots of Loro Park, or brave the petrifying drive to beautiful Masca Valley. For a true taste of Terenife, sample fresh farmhouse cheese and local bananas. A piece of delicate calado canario lace makes a special souvenir.

4 of us went booked a private tour with Greg. He couldn't have done more for us & although 2 of us had been several times before, showed us some incredible places that we didn't know existed. Originally from the Ukraine he probably knows more about Tenerife than the locals & answered all our questions with great knowledge & enthusiasm. He finally dropped us at the airport saying he wished he had time to show us more! If you want to really see the island, definitely book with him.

The communication with them was wonderful! Eliazar was extremely responsive, helpful, and fast. I went on the La Gomera tour with them, although the tour was outsourced to a different company. The tour itself was great. The guide was friendly and knowledgeable, and the driver was also very friendly. We had enough time to visit places, take photos, and enjoy some leisure time. We had some hickups regarding the pickup location. But luckily the guide was able to find me. Overall I'd still recommend the agent because of their good service. And La Gomera is definitely worth a visit!

The visit is made with a very prepared guide and with an Official Guide card of the Canary Islands government. In addition, the excursion is for a maximum of 7 people, which becomes something very exclusive. Some of the places that we will visit are not off the commercial routes so that they can really get to know the island.

Twice our school has chosen Basso to handle a day trip on El Hierro and we have enjoyed both trips. Our guide was enthusiastic (thank you Raquel!) and told us many things about the island and also patiently answered all our questions. Very flexible to our needs! Basso is easy to work with and responded quickly. I recommend Basso to anyone who wants a reliable organizer.

Taste the typical dishes and assimilate all their traditions, customs and folklore. I adore interpersonal relationships with people who come from any part of the world and speak several foreign languages. For these reasons, I want to guide you to discover the wonders of the Canary Islands, Tenerife and specifically the amazing Teide National Park and the fantastic city of La Orotava at 360 degrees. Come with me, you will not regret it, you will live a unique and unforgettable experience!

Being in Tenerife, we also had the pleasure to visit the wonderful island LA GOMERA (lying less than an hour by ferry) A one day car trip to La Gomera exceeded my expectations. A beautiful island where we had the pleasure to go with my boyfriend and Andrea - our guide. GREAT ORGANIZATION (pick up from hotel, ferry tickets, restaurant booking, time for trekking in Parque National de Garajonay, Mirador Del Morro De Agando, Mirador de Abrante) SAFELY (traveling in a comfortable clean car, small group, anti covid measures well respected ) and a brilliant dose of information gives the feeling of a PERSONALIZED TRIP. Andrea as a guide has an amazing knowledge, tact and great personal culture that must not be confused with pushiness. It wasn't just a typical trip, it's definitely a new quality on the market. Highly recommends, the experience is worth any price.

There is no visit worth Tenerife without going through the Teide National Park. Declared World Heritage by UNESCO in 2007. We will discover together this wonder of nature by standing in extraordinary places enjoying the views and taking beautiful photographs. Thousands of years have been needed for the formation of the largest peak in Spain and the third highest volcano in the world in the Atlantic Ocean, there is none that exceeds it in proportion. Inactive since 1798 (Nose of Teide). It is the most emblematic monument of the Canary Islands and we are lucky to be able to visit it.

Inclusions: Typical Canarian lunch included in the price, Private transportation, Hiking poles, Pick-up and drop off at the hotel, holiday home, etc.

This was an awesome tour, wonderfully led by Mario and Eva. We were picked up at our hotel and then taken to visit a number of locations around the island. The trip was very varied and the information provided by our guides was excellent, detailed and always entertaining. We really learnt a lot about the island and had a most enjoyable day. Our main stop was at La Laguna, where we had a delicious lunch. I fully recommend this excursion and loved Mario and Eva's kindness and sense of humor

I had the best whale watching tour ever. With my wife and Capt. Alicia we were only 3 sailors on board for this comfortable and intensive expedition. Look at the picture of a baby pilot whale and take your chance too.
