Teide Stargazing Tour from South Tenerife

Between 2:15 and 4:30 pm, we'll pick you up from your chosen meeting point and head to the Teide National Park. The minibus will take us to the Teide Observatory, where we will have a guided tour of its facilities, which include several laboratories and different telescopes. We will explain why Tenerife is ideal for astronomical observation due to its altitude and low pollution.

From the observatory, we'll watch a breathtaking sunset as the sun sets behind the clouds surrounding Teide. Afterward, we will travel to the base station of the Teide cable car for a 30-minute break, where we'll have a picnic meal including a sausage and cheese sandwich, a sweet treat, and a drink.

Once it’s dark, we will begin a stargazing workshop lasting 1 hour 15 minutes, where we will locate key constellations and the International Space Station, using long-range telescopes to observe celestial bodies. The tour concludes with drop-off between 10:15 pm and 12:30 am.

If you prefer not to have the picnic meal, you can book the option without food, but you will need to bring your own meal.
