Teide by Night – etelä- ja länsiosasta

Everything apart from the meal was excellent

I wanted to see the night sky through telescopes, in a nearly 9 hour excursion we had a total of 20 minutes with telescopes. That 20 minutes was shared 7 people to out telescope. Roughly 3 minutes per person. The dinner off was not edible. Food looked and tasted like it was grossly over cooked 3 days earlier. Our party of three didnt eat it. The wine provided was also untouched. Tasted like vinegar. The whole excursion was under whelming and very disappointing. I feel robbed of £210.

Our guide was fantastic - Danny on bus 117. I learnt a huge amount on the way up to the first stop, let alone the rest of the trip. The views were amazing, day and night, and the stops chosen weren't too busy, which was great. The food was pretty good - the soup starter was very tasty, there was plenty of alcoholic/non alcoholic drink options, the main was mediocre and the dessert was small but tasty. I would like to see more about suitable shoes and not underestimating how cold it would be!

Well organised. Educational. Knowledgeable tour guide. Tour vehicle was spotlessly clean and driven by a safe courteous and well presented driver.

It was cloudy so we didn’t actually see the sun set, it was just a slightly lighter smudge behind the clouds. At the telescope sight there were so many cars going by with lights on full beam your eyes couldn’t get accustomed to the dark because of the constant glare. It was pretty cloudy there too so there wasn’t much to see. We only got about a minute on each object before getting moved on so other people could get a glimpse. And the food was pretty average to say the least. So not great

10/10! The day starts exploring the gorgeous scenery around the national park, with plenty of stops along the way to take in all the surroundings. Watching the sunset was absolutely stunning, and then stargazing on a mountain was simply stunning. Nico was knowledgable, funny and intriguing which made the day so much better! Definitely need to take warm clothes for the sunset!
