La Palma Taxi Tour, Quick Facts
La Palma Private Taxi Tour, From The Cruise Port
The simple way to see La Palma on a port day. An official La Palma taxi meets your group at the port of Santa Cruz de La Palma, and for three or five hours the island is yours: the viewpoints above the capital, the crater of the Caldera de Taburiente and the volcano from the 2021 eruption on one route, or the laurel forest, the waterfall and the natural pools of the green north on the other. Up to four people, one price per taxi, and a driver who plans the day backwards from your all aboard time. Also for anyone staying on the island who wants a private day without renting a car.
Three hours shows you the volcano. Five hours shows you the island. Pick what your ship allows.
Shore Excursion In Santa Cruz De La Palma, How Your Day Works
Cruise passengers on La Palma usually get two choices: a coach with fifty people on a fixed route, or a walk around the old town and back to the ship. The taxi tour is the third option. Same island, your own car, four seats, and a price for the taxi instead of per head. The driver works to your ship's clock, not the coach company's.
Reserva con un depósito

Confirmamos la fecha
We check the date with the driver, confirm your start time, and send you the exact meeting spot at the port with the car description.
Walk Off The Ship
A short walk to the meeting spot. Your driver is waiting with the taxi, your group only.
Your Route, Your Hours
Three or five hours on the route you chose, with stops at the viewpoints and time to walk and take photos. Want longer at one stop? Say so.
Back At The Port
Back at the ship with time to spare, not at the last minute. The buffer is part of the plan.
Volver antes de que tu barco salgue
This is the part people worry about, so let us be direct. The route is planned to finish with a buffer. If a stop runs long, the driver drops a stop, never the buffer. A taxi with four people can turn around in a minute; a coach with fifty cannot. Your driver knows your ship and your all aboard time, and plans the day backwards from it.
The Two Routes, 3 Or 5 Hours Each
Both routes start with the two viewpoints above the capital, where you see Santa Cruz, the port and your own ship from above. Then they split: south and west to the volcanoes, or north into the green. The 5 hour version does every stop below; the 3 hour version does the main ones, chosen with you on the day around your priorities and your ship's time.
🌋 Route 1: Volcanoes & Caldera
Cantón de Tedote Viewpoint
Panoramic view over Santa Cruz de La Palma, the port and the cruise ship. The first photo of the day.
La Concepción Viewpoint
Across the capital and the east coast, with San Pedro, Mazo and the airport below.
El Paso Visitor Centre
The story of the island, the Caldera de Taburiente National Park and the recent volcanoes, in ten minutes.
Mirador de La Cumbrecita
About 1,300 metres up, looking straight into the crater of the Caldera and across to Roque de los Muchachos. The stop people remember.
Volcán de Tajogaite
A short walk to the viewpoint over the 2021 volcano and its lava flows, then the new road through the lava landscape.
Puerto Naos Viewpoint
Banana plantations and the place where the lava reached the sea.
Church of Las Nieves
The island's most famous church, home of its patron saint, on the way back to the port.
⏱ 5 hours for every stop. 3 hours for the viewpoints, La Cumbrecita or the volcano, and the church, chosen with you.
🌳 Route 2: Green North & Natural Pools
Cantón de Tedote & La Concepción
The same two viewpoints over the capital and the ship, then north.
Church of Las Nieves
The island's most famous church, a short stop on the way up.
San Bartolo Viewpoint
The green, mountainous north opening up below you, ravines running to the sea.
Los Tilos Forest & Waterfall
UNESCO biosphere laurel forest. The waterfall is about five minutes on foot from where the taxi stops.
San Andrés & Charco Azul
A historic coastal village and natural volcanic swimming pools in clear water. Swim if the sea and the schedule allow.
La Fajana de Barlovento
More natural pools and the wild north coast, the best photo stop of the route.
⏱ 5 hours for every stop, with a possible swim. 3 hours for the viewpoints, Los Tilos and one coastal stop, chosen with you.
Which Route?
First time on La Palma and the ship gives you five hours or less? Volcanoes and Caldera. It is the island's story in one drive: the crater, the 2021 volcano, the lava meeting the sea. Been before, or travelling in summer and want water? Green North, and bring swimwear. Not sure? Message us with your hours in port and we tell you.

La Opinión Sincera de Club Canary
Hablando en serio de su equipo local en las Islas Canarias
Cruise days on La Palma are short, and the island is steep. A coach excursion spends half of it waiting for the last passenger. A taxi with four seats and a driver who knows the roads spends it driving. That is the whole idea here: you pick a route, you pick three or five hours, and the day is yours.
We keep it honest: the driver is a licensed taxi driver with basic English and a translation app, not a certified guide with a microphone. If you want the story of every viewpoint, this is not that. If you want the volcano, the crater and the view of your own ship from the top of the hill, back on board with time to spare and the price split four ways, this is the best value shore day on the island.
Four seats, one driver, your route. Book the five hours if the ship gives you the time.
