Teide Stargazing Tour from North Tenerife

At the scheduled time, we'll pick you up from your chosen meeting point in North Tenerife and welcome you aboard the minibus. We'll travel to the Teide National Park.

Our first stop will be the Teide Observatory, operational since 1964, where we will take a guided tour and learn about its technology.

During this tour, we'll explain why Tenerife is a prime location for stargazing and how astrophysicists conduct research there, observing the sun through advanced telescopes.

We'll also witness the sunset on Mount Teide, appreciating the colors that signal the end of the day.

Next, we will stop at the base station of the Teide cable car for a 30-minute break with a picnic meal which includes a sausage and cheese sandwich, a sweet treat, and a drink.

You will then have 1 hour 15 minutes to use long-range telescopes to observe constellations and learn about the North Star and its connections to Greek mythology.

We will drop you off back at the starting point after a total of 8 hours together.
