Serata Astronomica Privata Tenerife

Every private stargazing booking with Club Canary includes private hotel pickup in South Tenerife, a private van for your group only, an English-speaking stargazing guide, Celestron Evolution telescopes reserved for your group, and warm coats, gloves and hats. The Sunset Edition adds a picnic of Canarian tapas bought from local shops, with wine, cava, beer and soft drinks, served outdoors. The Late Night Edition includes snacks, desserts and drinks instead. To be clear about it: the picnic is a light outdoor meal, not a restaurant dinner, and the van is comfortable and practical rather than a luxury vehicle.

L’esperienza “Osservazione privata delle stelle + tramonto” inizia intorno alle 17:00, dura circa 5 ore e comprende la vista del tramonto con un picnic a base di tapas. L’esperienza privata di osservazione delle stelle a tarda notte inizia intorno alle 23:30, dura circa 3 ore, si concentra maggiormente sul cielo stesso e include foto di astrofotografia gratuite. Club Canary vi riconfermerà gli orari esatti via e-mail.

The Late Night Edition costs less because it does not include the sunset stop or the tapas picnic, and it runs about 3 hours instead of 5. You still get the same fully private format, the same Celestron telescopes and the same guide, plus drinks, snacks, desserts and free astrophotography photos. Club Canary's view: after midnight the sky is at its darkest, so if you care more about the stars than about the food, this is the one to take.

Both work well, but the Late Night Edition is the more romantic of the two. Dinner first, then a calm private night under the darkest sky of the evening, with free astrophotography photos so you come home with something real. Couples who want sunset, food and a longer complete evening usually choose the Sunset Edition instead. Club Canary arranges proposals on both regularly, so message us privately rather than using the order notes if it is meant to be a surprise.

The Sunset Edition pickup follows the sunset, around 18:15 in summer and earlier in winter, returning about 5 hours later. The Late Night Edition runs around 23:30 to 02:30 all year. Club Canary confirms your exact time by email after booking. Be aware that mountain evenings shift: traffic, an earlier group or a weather decision can push things later, so please keep the rest of your evening loose rather than booking a fixed dinner afterwards. Your guide sends his live WhatsApp location on the way to collect you, so you can see exactly where he is instead of waiting and wondering.

Sì, il servizio di prelievo e rientro privato nel sud di Tenerife è incluso in entrambe le versioni. Il prelievo da Puerto de la Cruz e da altre zone settentrionali o remote è possibile per la versione al tramonto con un supplemento extra per prenotazione, indicato in questa pagina. La versione notturna non prevede il prelievo al nord a causa degli orari delle guide.

Yes, and Club Canary arranges these regularly. Add your request when booking, or better, message us privately so nothing appears on a confirmation email your partner might see. We can often arrange flowers, lights, a champagne upgrade and the right timing so the moment feels natural rather than staged. The guide plays his part without giving anything away, and because the night is fully private there is nobody else around at the moment itself.

Si tratta di un'esperienza privata 100% riservata esclusivamente al vostro gruppo: coppie, famiglie, amici o piccoli gruppi privati. Non vengono mai aggiunti ospiti extra, così potrete godervi una serata esclusiva all’osservazione delle stelle a Tenerife con la vostra guida personale, i vostri telescopi e secondo i vostri ritmi.

Worth understanding properly. The night runs in a normal range of mountain conditions, not only on perfect ones. Haze, passing cloud, a breeze or a bright moon are ordinary up there, and your guide moves to wherever the sky is clearest rather than cancelling. A cancellation and full refund applies where conditions are genuinely unsuitable or unsafe, such as heavy cloud across the island, strong wind or closed roads, and Club Canary notifies you in advance so you can choose a reschedule or a refund. If your night looks marginal, the guide will tell you honestly what to expect before you set off so you can decide together.

Il prima possibile: questa esperienza VIP di osservazione delle stelle a Tenerife ha una disponibilità molto limitata, soprattutto nelle notti serene, nei giorni festivi e nei fine settimana. La versione notturna di solito apre le prenotazioni con meno di 5 giorni di anticipo, quindi è sempre consigliabile verificare prima la disponibilità con Club Canary.

The sunset and the picnic normally take place at a viewpoint on the western slope above Guía de Isora, looking out over the ocean. It is a beautiful spot, and Club Canary will be straight with you: it is well below the summit of Teide and not above the cloud layer. After dark the guide moves the group higher for the telescope session, normally inside Teide National Park. If wind, cloud or road access make that a poor choice on your night, the whole evening stays at the lower viewpoint instead. No fixed altitude or route is promised, because the guide picks the clearest sky rather than the highest number. If standing at a specific altitude is the thing you want, tell us before booking and we will say honestly whether this is the right trip.

A Volkswagen Transporter van, kept in good order and set up for exactly this kind of night: room for your group, the telescopes and all the picnic gear, high seating with a proper view out, and no trouble at all on the mountain roads. For the evening it is yours and nobody else's. Club Canary just wants the word "private" to mean the right thing: the van carries your group alone, rather than being a chauffeur-driven luxury car. It is a practical, comfortable vehicle built for mountain nights, which is genuinely what this trip needs. If the vehicle itself is a big part of what you expect for the price, message us before booking and we will talk it through.

On a good night: the Moon in real detail, one or two planets, star clusters and constellations, and the Milky Way when the season and the moon phase allow. On a bright moon night you will see less, because the moon washes out anything faint, and that is astronomy rather than a shortcut. A realistic session is a handful of objects looked at properly with your guide explaining each one, not a long list rushed through. If there is something specific you are hoping to see, ask Club Canary when you book and we will tell you whether it is up that month.

It is a picnic rather than a dinner, but nobody goes hungry, there is plenty of it. The Sunset Edition includes Canarian tapas from local shops: cheeses, cured meats, bread, olives, fruit and sweets, with wine, cava, beer and soft drinks, set up outdoors while the sun goes down. Club Canary will be clear about the limits: nothing is heated, there are no plated courses and there is no table service, because there is no kitchen on a mountain and cooking is not allowed up there. For most guests that is exactly right, a relaxed picnic outdoors with a wide view while the sky changes colour. If you are used to fine dining and want that standard, see the next question, because we can arrange it. If you are particular about your wine, bring your own bottle, the guide will not mind at all.

Yes, and this is the right question to ask if you have fine dining in mind. Club Canary works with specialist catering companies and high-end picnic set-up companies in Tenerife who can build something considerably more elaborate: proper table settings, a styled picnic, a curated menu, better wine, the lot. It is arranged separately from the standard booking and it does add a meaningful amount to the budget, so it only makes sense for special occasions like a proposal, an anniversary or a milestone birthday. Scrivici prima di prenotare with your date, group size and roughly what you have in mind, and we will come back with options and a price. The standard picnic stays as it is unless you arrange this in advance.
