What you will do
Once the pick-up is finished, you will leave the hotel zone behind, heading to Villa de Candelaria. There you can visit its basilica, inside which is the Virgin of Candelaria (or Virgen Morenita), who is the patron saint of the Canary Islands. You will also be amazed by the imposing bronze statues that commemorate the ancient menceyes (Guanche kings) of Tenerife, and which constitute a national monument.
We will continue the route to La Laguna, the first city founded in Tenerife after its conquest. This historical jewel was declared a Historical World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 1999. Here we will walk through its picturesque streets that are brimming with history and culture.
The excursion continues to the north of the island, where you will take a walking route through the Historic-Artistic Complex of Villa de La Orotava. Its streets full of history and beauty will take you to La Casa de Los Balcones, one of the most representative buildings of La Orotava and center of embroidery and openwork of the typical costumes of the Canary Islands.
We will continue with the visit to Garachico, included in the 2021 list of "MOST BEAUTIFUL TOWNS IN SPAIN", a town that after being partially destroyed by a volcanic eruption in 1706 was later rebuilt. It currently has a rich architectural heritage from the 16th and 17th centuries that is very well preserved, which is why its old town was declared an Asset of Cultural Interest in 1994.
You will have free time to have lunch on your own or enjoy the local gastronomy in one of the restaurants that we recommend.
On the way back to the south of the island we will enter the Teno Rural Park to visit the picturesque Masca hamlet, one of the most beautiful landscapes in Tenerife where nature and one of the best samples of traditional architecture of the Canary Islands mix.
